Fearless!


Ever feel like its you vs. the world? 
We do. Like at a monster truck rally, we are the car at the far end of the 20 car jump---yes---the one that is almost always guaranteed to be squished. It's to bad that the big ole truck that is rolling over us can't see that we are FEARLESS. Like this ↓ kid proves, sometimes fearlessness is all it takes to be awesome.

A kid can do it, so can we!

Marilyn is probably the most fearless woman ever. What better way to embrace her vibe than on your t-shirt?

This Mac Wonder Woman lipstick in Russian Red not only is a fearless red, but it's superhero container is fearless, too.

Take a Pill


I'm so chill... the ice cubes in my sweet tea today were shivering. Everybody, go take a chill pill. Right now. Stress is for squares. Seriously, just go enjoy your day... let yourself laugh, take a snooze, watch that movie you haven't seen in years, or eat an unhealthy amount of cheerios. Just go enjoy, be chill, and love it. 
And this guy ^ ain't got nothin' on me.

Just Tired.

flat tired.

dog tired.
"two" tired.

Any way you put it, I'm freakin' tired. I was up late last night trying to catch up on work and barely got any sleep. I don't know how Anna is always awake and lively in the morning, or how she manages to get a good night's sleep. She's just one of those crazy morning people. I'm trying to think positively though... like maybe I'll find time to squeeze in a nap today or maybe I'll get to sleep early tonight. Maybe I'll even figure out how to sleep with my eyes open. That could be a little creepy though. Anyway, I'll stop now. Go have a great Monday.

The Little Things




So we know this post was supposed to be yesterday, but last week was extremely busy for us with everything we have going on. Molly has been working on a few projects and I have been trying to plan ahead on a few things, so far... not working too well. But, we have learned how not to frustrate ourselves by enjoying the little things. Just bear with us, have a relaxing day like Molly did, and enjoy the little things.

A little girl who loves unicorns more than anything ever.

A treat that Pinky couldn't keep his schnozz off of (more details later this week!).

My outfit every evening as I sit watching movies with molly, "the boy," or even my family.

It's Game Time



As most everybody knows, Superbowl Sunday is tomorrow, which means that it's time for the cheering and the overeating to begin. I usually look forward to the commercials, the half-time performance and the snacks more than the actual game, but hanging out with friends and having a good time is what it's all about. One of my friends brings the same dish every time and it gets gobbled up in minutes. It's so simple and delicious that anyone could make it in 3 minutes. All you do is cover the bottom of a dish with re-fried beans, then add a layer of sour cream, salsa, and finish it up with cheese sprinkled on top. Grab some tortilla chips, then pull it out the fridge when it's time to go. Trust me, everyone loves it and you'll love how easy it is to make.

A Little Sparkle


When I was little, I would dress up wherever I went. I would take time to carefully select what jewelry I would stack around my neck or what color tutu I'd be prancing around in. I was never afraid to wear something sparkly, outrageous and over the top because well, I was four and thought I was a princess. What I'm trying to say is, is that I've lost that, and its time to add a little sparkle back into my life. Literally.

These would be a great replacement for a pair of red sparkly flats I had when I was five. If I could ever afford them... or walk in them.



I guess these would be more appropriate to dress up in than a hot pink tutu... maybe.

You know you wanna do that.

Preppy with a Flare


The weather is changing, which means that Molly and I need to shop :) I always have a reason to hit up d-town or the mall, I think Molly gets tired of my shopping obsession. Right now, I am dying to steal these preppy styles with flare (like this look) as spring rolls around.

Emma Watson's preppy flare to a basic cardi or dress is so whimsical. I absolutely love her collaboration with People Tree. Her confidence and intelligence is so astonishing; Emma is my inspiration for the next few busy months.
Cute oxford shoes with a little heel for some pop.

Rachel Bilson makes preppy look so good! Here she is going ultra casual, but the chains and heels make the outfit look amazing. I am definitely recreating this outfit in the next few weeks.

I am dying to purchase a pair of these shorts.
Pleated Tap Shorts from Forever 21 $ 16
This necklace literally adds flare to a preppy outfit.
