Holiday!!!

Holiday is by far my favorite word that British people use. I could say it all day long "holiday...holiday...holiday..." Not only does it just roll off the tongue, but its the word they use for vacations! Who doesn't love a good a vacation?! Recently me and my family went on a vacay to the greatest place on earth.

I'd love to stay.. but I really mustache.

Since it's less than a week before Christmas, I thought I'd share a really quick and inexpensive gift with you guys! This gift is perfect if you are buying for a group or if you just want something quick & easy.

The Braided Up-do (& no heat!)

Hi my lovelies! Its been a little while since I've posted a hair tutorial so I thought why not today?! [since I finally have time... I hate school]. Over 2 months ago I posted about a no-heat braided updo. I literally learned how to do this hairstyle about 30 minutes before I actually tried it out. Now I don't recommend to do that at all.. but I was feeling adventurous that day. I needed a quick hairstyle that looked like it took a long time yet didn't require me to dry my [very long and thick] hair. Anyone remember that post? Here's a picture to remind you!

Lazy Sunday + TBBC update!

Happy sunday everyone! I came home early this week and both of my kitties were laying together on my bed and I had to take some cute pictures with them. As always Middie loved every min. of it and Knight well... the picture speaks for itself. [They are loving lazy Sunday's] Anyways I've been so lazy today as always, so I thought i'd be productive and put up a post.

A friend loves at all times...

So this is my second post about my big/little gifts! This by far is one of the cutest projects I have done and one of the easiest!

HALLOWS' EVE

It's that time in the year when the fall breeze starts rolling in and the leaves beign to fall off the trees. In the spirit of Halloween I decided to make a pumpkin. I can't remember a memory in my childhood of making a pumpkin and my family doesn't do it every year. Sooo this Halloween I insisted that I carve a pumpkin. :)

Big/Little Gifts [part 1]

So at the campus organization I'm involved in, we have what's called "Adopt a freshmen"... but it always reminded me of the Greek "Big/Little" idea. An upperclassmen gets a freshmen and we become like a mentor to them and spend time getting to know them and really develop a friendship.

Being a senior this year, I really appreciate having the opportunity to connect to some of the freshmen this way because otherwise I honestly probably wouldn't. Not because I don't love the freshmen [actually I'm kinda jealous of them... they are just starting such an amazing experience] but simply just because senior year is CRAZY BUSY!

Anyways! When I found out who my little was [and yes i will refer to her as that!]... I was OVERJOYED! Honestly, she's the best. So because I was so excited, I wanted to make her gifts... [because if I was a little I would want gifts.. and who doesn't love gifts?!] 

So [PART one] of the gifts I made her was this crafty Chalkboard Mason Jar. She loves the color coral so I found the color closest to coral and went for it! I saw the idea for spray painting the mason jars on Pinterest and went from there. So it's super easy and honestly not that expensive!

Fall Time = Craft Time :)

Hello Ladies!

I know I know...it has been about three years since I have posted a blog post and yes you can disown me now (please dont though). So since it is turning fall now..its time for crafts. :) And since some pure genius invented pinterest, there are plenty of crafts to choose from. I stumbled upon a way to take boring shoes and make them gorgeous! (it's inexpensive too!)

Its wednesday, so I feel like being random.

Well I finally did it... I wore my first scarf of the season!

Patticakes and Perfect Sunday's

I had a pretty amazing weekend. My sunday was absolutely perfect. I actually had some free time to write about one of my newest obsessions. Patticakes.

This new amazing cupcake/coffee adorable place called Patticakes just opened up in town and its sooooo delicious. Not only are the cupcakes amazing but the coffee is wonderful too.

When life gets messy...

I cant even begin to tell you the stress i've been putting on myself recently! I'm sorry its been over a week since my last post. [BTW have you guys tried the twist braid yet? how did it turn out?] Recently I've been all about the Messy Bun. I cant get enough of it because its quick and gets my hair out of my way. Its been so hot here lately that my hair has been driving me crazy...
