I Go, I Go

In terms of working out, I haven't "gone" in a while.
Once my semester at school started, working out just wasn't in my routine of things. Neither was healthy food (oops). Neither of these benefitted me, I might add.
Now that I'm home, I'm working out as much as possible and trying to take as much advantage as I can of the nourishing food my mom makes.
So here's to working out, my friends!

Love always,

P.S.- 7 months later and Foster the People is still the best work out music. Get on it, okay?

In Her Shoes

Okay, guys, let's get this one thing straight: my mom is a total babe. 

Along with being super adorable, she has awesome taste in clothes! Over Thanksgiving break, I was in the kitchen with her and all of a sudden realized that she's like, 20 times more trendy than I am. I love it.

She loves drap-ey sweaters, chunky necklaces, skinny jeans, and most of all...HEELS. 

With that being said, she's also an amazing mom, and my ultimate best friend. I can't wait to go home and spend countless hours watching girly movies, shopping, and doing crafty things.

Hugs and air kisses (because it's cold season)!

Baby It's Cold Outside

I've clearly been gone for a while in the world of Blogger. My life has been all-consumed with school, homework, working (which is making coffee for people, which is far too enjoyable to be called work), and sleeping. I need more of the sleeping in my life. 

Soon, though! I have exactly 11 days left in the semester. 

Oh, how I want those days to fly by! But alas, when we want things to come fast, they tend to come slow. So I'm trying to distract myself by enjoying the final moments of the semester. 

That being said, I've taken it upon myself to enjoy all things fallish and festive; these things may or may not include lattés (I tried a superb Pumpkin one today), walks around campus in the overcast weather, listening to sweet-sounding music (The Civil Wars as of late), and wearing cozy things... 

I have to say, shorts with tights have a special place in my heart. They're like, kind of amazing. Especially with a good pair of shorts (I prefer my Levi's from Urban Outfitters that I got for $5 last year). Wow, lots of parenthese-worthy things to talk about today, eh?

Anyway, I love good winter clothes. I also need more of them. Ha! 

Until next time,

Autumn in New York

Hello, friends...

It's nearing the end of September, and there's barely been a glimpse of fall weather. 

It's making me a nervous wreck, here! 

I just want to wear sweaters, and scarves, and ankle boots! Is that too much for a girl to ask? 

The good news is, in 2 1/2 short weeks, I'm going to New York! 

I can't wait to see my sister, and spend time walking around the city (and eating yummy food) with my best friend.

Much love,

-A

P.S.- Yes, this outfit may look familiar. It's a bit of a different take on this

Photo Diary: Goodbyes and Hellos

The title says it all, folks. 

My life as of late: 

There's a Bucket in My Bag

Hellooooo, all!

I'm officially a college student, and it's officially as hot as hell outside. 

Hot weather has never been my favorite. At all. 

Luckily, they keep it nice and cool indoors which makes for lots of happy students!

I actually juuuuust realized that I'm a little bit of a liar because it's so nice outside right now. Like, perfect. One day it will be like this at 3:00 in the afternoon. 

Enough about the heat, let's just take a moment to stare at this outfit.

. . . 

Yep, I want to wear it right. now. 

What's not to love? 

Stay cool kids—and I mean that in the most literal sense of the word, of course!

The Endless Summer

Well, folks. 

Summer is basically ending for me this weekend. 

It's an extremely sad thought, really. 

It's been such a good summer, filled with friends, the beach, and family. 

I would really rather it not be over.

I'm going to be optimistic and say that it's not, though. I'm going to school with friends, and I'll be in the sunshine and relatively close to the beach (tanning, anyone?). 

So this is my "it's-the-end-of-summer-but-I'm-acting-like-it's-not" outfit. 

Long live summer 2011!

P.S.- I shall try to post while I'm at school. I'll need SOME way to procrastinate on homework, right?
