sneak peak




day 247

Because I didn't do anything creative with pictures today, here is a sneak peak of my dorm room!


I was not significant



day 246

Today's photo will be up as soon as I finish taking it. ;) College is seriously so much fun. Yesterday I didn't have time to upload this because I was busy dying of laughter with my friends.

dress: diy // hat: forever 21 // shoes: famous footwear



Hey everyone! I'm super excited to show you my new hair! I've always wanted to dye my hair but my parents never let me (while I was living with them), so once I got to college of course I had to turn into a rebellious teenager and dye my hair! (Don't worry, my parents, even though they didn't really like the idea, said I could do it.) My roommate Annette did it for me in the dorm bathroom while the rest of our floor watched. It was definitely really exciting and scary because I have never dyed my hair before. But I absolutely love it! It's crazy enough to make a statement, but still somewhat professional-ish-kind-of-sort-of because it's not over-the-top purple. I'm in love.




This is the first of two dresses I sewed over the summer (the second one still is incomplete), and I really love being able to wear something completely unique. Plus, who doesn't love wearing a cute ice cream/popsicle dress?



Also my friend Jenna showed me how to do newspaper nails! It's actually super easy. All you do is paint your nails, let them dry completely, then dip the nail in rubbing alcohol for about six seconds. Put the newspaper over it and hold it there for about twenty seconds, take it off, apply a top coat, and you're done! It's magic.



Hope you guys have an awesome day!

beach baby



day 245

Yesterday was such an awesome day. We took a little road trip and went to the beach, did some shopping and ate lots of food. Then we came back home and dyed everyone's hair! Now most of the floor has super pretty blue strips in their hair. I'll have some posts up about those in the upcoming days, so look out for that!

This is my beautiful friend Tabatha. She fills my heart with such joy.
