With the weekend here, I'm ready for some time to unwind before my next beach trip. If I've said it once, I've said it a million times - where has this summer gone? I'm not quite ready to let go of lake trips, warm weather and patio cocktails.

When I first met Monica, we hit it off immediately. A girl who loves makeup, hair and playing dress up just as much as I do? How could we not love each other? Seriously, it was love at first sight. Then I met Roxy.

The hair game got real last week. Really, really real. I’m that person who changes her hair on the reg, no matter what. If I’m bored, stressed, just saw a gorg picture of Rachel Bilson on Pinterest, it’s inevitable I’m changing my hair.

Life as of Lately
Sometimes all you need to transform your mood is some gorgeous sunny weather, a long run and some old Easter candy (hey, it’s still good).
With summer slowly creeping in and more and more sunny days to bare my ghost-like white legs, I can’t wait till the warm days stick around. In the meantime, I’ve found that taking time to appreciate springtime (before it all blooms away from us) before it’s too late. A run surrounded by whites, pinks and purple petals, the first of many patio brunch parties (mimosas were a must) and the seasons first brew at the Salem Red Sox game are some of my favorite ways to celebrate springtime. Cheers!
Life as of Lately
Hey Friday, fancy seeing you here already. For real, this week has flown by - um, hello almost-September?
For me, this week has been full of time with friends and that is something I love. A lot.
Post-college/being in the 'real world' has taught me that grabbing drinks with friends after work is the equivalent to a dull college night. In the 'real world', it's actually quite wild. Funny how something so small changes after college ends. I mean are we all old now? Can I be 21 again? I miss you, Hokie House. *Crying*
Besides one (or 5) amazing cocktails (River + Rail's 'Solution' margarita is amaze-sauce), this week has given me time to reflect on where exactly I want this blog to go. A colleague has been giving me so much advice/ideas on the posts that I could feature on here and been pushing me to really give this thing a shot. Let's just say its been a week filled with motivation - I can feel my heart beat a little bit faster because hey, I really think I can do this.
I have so much I want to do on this blog - everything from makeup reviews, posting my personal outfits, investing in a professional camera, switching this bad-boy to WordPress and actually getting someone to design this thing for me. I know I'm getting a little ahead of myself (because damn, there's so much I want to do on here), but I really don't think I'm going to stop.
I want to make this big. It's about to happen. One-baby-step at a time.
