Terrific Totes
I don't know about you, but I hardly ever use small purses. Instead, I have the tendency to carry satchel style purses or tote bags most of the time. I always carry a decent amount of stuff with me, so it makes more sense to have it all fit nicely in my bag rather than to have an absolutely stuffed tiny purse in addition to a pile of stuff to carry around with me. With my planner, wallet, glasses, makeup bag, camera, etc. it's quite a lot to carry. Speaking of totes, I picked out a few …
The Hunt Has Begun… Again
As I mentioned in my last Friday Five post, I got asked to prom a few weeks ago! Since then, I've been searching for the perfect dress. I thought that I had found it on Nordstrom's site, but when I went back a few days later to order my dream dress... it was gone!Such a bummer, right? So the hunt has begun once again! I honestly don't really know what I'm looking for specifically, but I think it will be one of those things where I'll just know when it's the right one for me. I'm going to a few …

My Starbucks Obsession

No, but I love it anyway.via InstagramI consider Starbucks not only as a great place to grab coffee or a treat, but also a great place to get homework done. Every now and then, especially around finals, I'll grab a table after …

Well-Placed Bows
I don't know about you, but when I got an an email from Kate Spade recently talking about their new collection featuring "well-placed bows," I took the time to head over to their site and check out the line. I loved the plethora of bows, the fun colors, and the simple silhouettes. I think that yet again, Kate Spade has produced a fresh, yet classic collection that I wish would appear in my closet. That being said, these were just a few of my many favorites.1. Bow Terrace …
Spritz Spritz
Coco Chanel once said,"A woman who doesn't wear perfume has no future." This is quite an extreme statement, but I must say that I love perfume. I think it's so cool that a scent can change your mood or bring back a specific memory.One very important thing to remember about perfume is that there is definitely such a thing as too much of it! You don't want to smell like you poured a whole bottle on, so control is key. Stick to just one or two spritzes of perfume …
