Cinderella

March 30, 2015 — Leave a comment

I’m basically a little girl trapped in a 20-something’s body.  I am currently drinking pink lemonade and have High School Musical playing in the background. I always check out the little girl’s shoe section at Target AND have purchased some. I’ve seen the new Cinderella movie twice now….and will probably go again soon!

The new Cinderella movie is stunning…between the art direction, the costumes, the moment the Prince and Ella meet…ahh, *heart flutters!*  The Prince and Ella are b-e-a-utiful!

Actress, Lily James, had a few of her own Cinderella moments while on the red carpet at the Cinderella premieres.  I am kind of obsessed with these looks.  Light, romantic makeup and hair, shimmering gowns, and magical accessories.  Straight up perfection!

There are an overwhelming amount of national (insert something here) days and months, but this is one I can wholeheartedly support!

I love paper goods, greeting cards, and sending & receiving letters.  During college, I would always send cards back to my parents and grandparents, even though I saw them at least once a month.  I also love to send thank you notes.  If someone goes out of their way for you, you can go out of your way to send them a thank you to show your appreciation!

I also was on the receiving end of this practice lately, when I received a sweet card from one of my best friends from college who knew I was going through a tough couple of weeks.  Not only was the note inside perfect, but the pure fact that I got something fun in the mail brightened my day.

Here are some every-occasion cards I’ve had my eye on.  Get writing!

Favorite Things March 2015

These are a few of my favorite thingsss…

These are a few tried and true favorites, as well as some items I’ve had my eye on for a while!

1. Trader Joe’s Fireworks Chocolate: Baby you’re a firework! I got this as a treat for my guy and I on Valentines Day, mostly based on the packaging. I have since bought like 10 of these bars. It’s a mix of dark chocolate, hot spice, salt, and pop rocks. So weird, but so good. Also, it is quite entertaining to give some to an unsuspecting person and watch their reaction as the pop rocks kick in!

2. Stella and Dot Rebel Pendant: I have had this necklace for about two years, and it is such an easy piece to wear. Throw it on by itself or layer it…looks great either way. I have the gold and silver, but get much more wear out of the gold.

3. Asos Dress: It’s currently on sale! This would be a great fall to winter to spring transition piece. Dress it up with heels and a statement necklace, or dress it down with a chunky, long cardigan and ankle boots.

4. Anthropologie Euclidean Pendant: I wish I had somewhere to put this! Love that it is a solid enough to draw the eye to, but is airy and delicate at the same time.

5. I Just Want To Drink Coffee T-shirt: This is my life. On my birthday wish-list.

6. Surf Waiting Painting: Beautiful sea glass colors and serene subject. I could stare at this all day, especially during Michigan winters.

7. T-Swizzle, Style: Okay, first of all, I am so glad that she transitioned to pop.  Second, the guy has two different colored eyes. Stunning! Third, this song reminds me of a love from summers passed. Takes me back to butterflies, high school, and gets me pretty psyched for this upcoming summer.  I could listen to this all day.

What are some of your current favorites?
