Trivia Night

I've always been a huge fan of Jeopardy and almost any other trivia game. For a change, I'm headed to a local bar tonight for...get this...Seinfeld trivia. I'm currently prepping my brain via YouTube and iMDB so that I could, at the very least, stand a small chance against the die hard fans. Wish me a ton of luck! I leave you with my all-time favorite clip. "Don't steal my jokes."

Hello, Friday

Finally, Friday! Didn't it just feel like the longest week in record? This weekend, we're celebrating my boyfriend's birthday (we're only 9 days apart) so it will be a blast eating cupcakes for a second weekend in a row! No guilt. Ever. And here are my favorite links from around the interweb this week:

The happiest animals in the world!

Eeekk only more 45 days until the special edition Domino issue comes out

A lovely reminder to just step back and breathe

Drooling over everything here, but especially putting this on my weekend to-do

Solid tips for you photographers out there and free courses if you want to become one!

I want everything on this inspiration board, including the mermaid flask

P.S. Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!

How Do You Save?

I think that all of you can relate to the money struggles of a twenty-something. I'd much rather be going out to eat at all the fabulous restaurants in the city, vacationing abroad, or shopping without any reservations. Even though I save a set amount from each check for long-term savings, I end up just transferring it out. Oops! Do you have any good (and semi-easy) money-saving tricks?

Home Inspiration: Jane Aldridge

Spotted the new home of Judy Aldridge on one of my fav blogs and couldn't help but follow the link trail to see that Jane Aldridge also posted photos of her first apartment. Isn't it glorious? Love the perfect mix of tribal-glam she's got going on. Bravo!

Facts of Life

Wiser words have never been said.

Hello, Friday

Any fun plans for the weekend?  Welp, it's MY BIRTHDAY...and I'm going to shout it from the rooftops while eating Funfetti cake.  Lots of fun to be had, starting at 5:30 PM.  In the meantime, here's a round-up of my fav links this week:

Can't help but be so excited for Linsanity, everywhere

Ohhhh, DYI stir sticks for a fancy party!

The prettiest of pretty polka dot curtains - via the sweetest occasion

She's so stunning with her gold-toed pumps!

I would not be opposed to one of these gorgeous cakes

Enjoy and be safe! xx

The Beach Girls

All this mild winter weather has just made me overlook every sweater in my wardrobe for the past 4 weeks.  I'm ready for summer, not even spring, and I'm not afraid to show it.  I've already started my bikini hunt and stumbled upon the cutest things EVER. Bustier tops, high waist bottoms...practically a man's worst nightmare. For me? Heaven.

EXPLAIN & STOP SOPA + PIPA

I haven't posted in MONTHS, but I've still been keeping my finger on the pulse of our little blogosphere.  Couldn't help but post this YouTube video explaining the implications of SOPA and PIPA on our world that we've so carefully molded.  Please take a total of 11 minutes out of your day to watch this video and sign the petition over at Google: https://www.google.com/landing/takeaction/

In the long run, the time you take to do those two things will be worth the while.

XO,
