I was walking down the street the other day (I may or may not have been on my way to get an apple cider donut), nonchalantly walking and listening to music. (I've been non-stop listening to Fashion by The Royal Concept because it's so damn catchy, and because I imagine my life to be like…

What’s In My Giant Trenta (My Ride or Die Drink)
"Why does Chrissey love this palm tree dress so much?" "Why does she love green so much?" "God, her life is such a mess because her nail polish is chipped." Funny enough, this post is about none of those things. It's not even about how my trenta cup isn't even a trenta cup... Starbucks lied…

The Three Dupes I (Actually) Use, All The Time
Because I promised you all dupes, and I think this cancels out my last post where I exposed you all to high-end makeup temptation? I can't help but laugh a little because of how incredibly bland these dupes are--but I told myself that I would only post things that I genuinely use consistently. And I…

The Undupable Makeup Products (Top Three)
Please don't reprimand me for including mobile screenshots in this blog post. I'm sitting in the northwest suburbs, on my parents' couch, visiting for the weekend, and the WordPress mobile app is a strange sort of thing... but I've been thinking and thinking about this, ever since I decided to make another Sephora investment. The…

The First PSL of the Season
(Low key, my eyebrows look awesome in this picture) It's been a weird transition time, weather-wise. I finally pulled out my first shirt-dress of Autumn 2016, and NEARLY convinced myself to wear the dark green suede lace-up booties that go perfectly with all of my fall clothes. I opted for my trusty Charming Charlie flats, though. I…
Say Yes to Adventure
It's so easy to be comfortable, and it becomes even easier to tolerate things. I'm a huge proponent of personal growth and moving forward, but sometimes you get to this point where you know that there is no more moving forward...so instead of finding a new way or a new adventure, you just get comfortable.…
A Guide to…Dressing For The Job You Want
Both outfits from Extra Petite. I had an interview earlier this week, and I remember running around my room, freaking out about what to wear. Dressing for an interview is one of the most difficult situations that you can dress for, especially since there is so much at stake--you're really dressing to impress. You're selling you--and…
A Guide to…Cutting the Social Media Cord
When do you know exactly to cut the cord with an ex? The social media cord, of course, that links the two of you together. With so many forms of social media, it's not hard to keep tabs on your ex, whether you're trying to or not. No, but guys, I'm serious. How many times…
Mascara is the Worst
I hate mascara. It's probably one of the most unpopular opinions that I have, but I don't wear it, and I cannot stand it. I hate mascara, and I think it is the absolute worst. A lot of people commented on my Snapchat makeup tutorial that I don't use mascara--it's kind of funny, considering that…
Italian Fest 2016–I Love Sangria and Pasta
After lots of work, stress, and a whole lot of being busy, I was definitely more than relieved when my friends said that we should go to Italian Fest last night. I love Festa Italiana, I've gone every single year (multiple times even!) since I've moved out here. It's quite possibly my favorite event of…
