Summer in the City: Part 2


Time for more adventuring! The city has been keeping me busy (hence the lack of blogging), but I've got plenty of material and photos to share so I hope you enjoy!

Dressometry

Between intern/student life, dancing up a storm, and trying to be as fabulous as Cher Horowitz (a full time job ladies and gents), I also work with a company Dressometry and now I'm shouting from the rooftops about how great it is. You might be thinking that I'm just doing this because I have to or I'm getting something out of it, but really this is about to become your new best friend.

In an age where the internet has every option under the sun, sometimes you need a way to filter through everything to find what you want, and that is exactly what Dressometry does for you. It provides you with a range of criteria so you are able to filter down what you are looking for. Whether you're shopping for a special occasion or looking for an airy dress for these lazy, hazy days of summer, Dressometry is the perfect first step for filtering through all that the internet has to offer. It even gives you alternatives when you click on a dress. The possibilities are limitless. It's a shopping addict's best dream and worst nightmare because it's so easy to use and makes you want to spend all of your money!

After taking my latest peek around the site, I am majorly lusting after this Nasty Gal dress. The gingham pattern is perfectly retro and the graphic black and white makes such a statement. The styling possibilities are endless whether you go sweet or punky.

Dress: Nasty Gal via Dressometry | Hat: Topshop | Boots: Jeffrey Campbell | Purse: Kate Spade Saturday | Necklace: Madewell | Midi Ring: Madewell | Lipstick: Nars

Have fun shopping and styling! Don't get into too much trouble with your bank account!

Summer in the City: Part 1


This is my second summer in New York City and it has been a complete blast so far! Greenwich Village is my home until August and I've made it my mission to explore as much as I can. I've got an endlessly long bucket list and I've been chipping away at it bit by bit! Stay tuned as I share pictures, stories, and opinions on what I did.

Happy TV


I have been a lifelong fan of television. Now we're in a bit of a golden age, with shows like Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad dominating the conversation, but I have some other shows I'd like to talk about. I have always gravitated toward certain random shows that have made me giddy happy. It's often quirky, smart writing that just makes me roll on the floor laughing and that I hold dear to my heart years after these shows have aired. For one thing, it's just great to be witnessing a golden age in television, but a lot of it is pretty bleak so I unabashedly obsess over the shows that are quirky, shamelessly happy, and willing to look silly. Here they are in order of discovery:

Dance


In early April, my school had it's semesterly dance show and besides participating, I took more than a few photos during our tech week and couldn't resist having some fun with them.

The Essentials: Makeup Edition

source

Years of doing stage makeup have prepared me for this moment (fun fact: I learned how to make myself look like a drag queen with no help when I was just 10 years old! The glories of dancing competitively). Here they are, my tried and true favorites that I just can't live without.

Tuesday Tunes: Death Cab for Cutie

Since Tuesdays are the perfect day for tunes I'll occasionally be sharing some of my favorite lyrics and pictures that I've taken smashed up into one being! Enjoy!

Tuesday Tunes: Soundtrack to my Studying

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18
With three tests and about a million other things to do this week, it was definitely the right time to whip out my favorite tracks to listen to while doing homework and studying. They've all got a nice pace to keep me going, occasionally give me the distraction I need, but never keep me away from my work too long.

What do you listen to when you study?

Liebster Award


Lindsey at More Awesomer, Kimberly at Kimberly's Chronicle, and Sami at Sparkle and Shine nominated me for the Liebster award, which is an award for up-and-coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. I am so honored and terribly sorry that it took so long for me to write this post! Since I slacked and took so long to publish this post I have answered all three sets of questions I got.
