Someone asked me on my Tumblr what kind of hair products I use. Here goes it. I have super super super curly hair. If you don’t have curly hair, it’s hard to understand how difficult it is to manage. Especially when you live in Florida. The humidity is crazy. I used to straighten my hair…
School is only a few short days away!!! Those exclamation points aren’t really excitement… More like a type of proclamation. I just arrived in D.C. a few short days ago. I’ve been trying to get my room in order… and it’s almost there. I’ll post pictures once I get everything together (aka after my birthday……
Rabbit, Rabbit! It’s officially October. What better way to kick off the month than with a post about preppy costumes!?! *****I’ve gotten tons of questions about preppy Halloween costumes on tumblr! So I decided to make a CP post about it! I am so not-a-fan of trashy costumes. And I hate the excuse “college is…
I’ve been getting lots of questions about what to wear with corduroys. I thought it’d be a perf CP post! I always get so sick of wearing jeans during the winter time. Corduroys are the perfect material to stay warm and look in season. So you’ve stocked up on J. Crew cords (I mean, come…
My tumblr is in full swing. If you need more College Prepster in your life, be sure to stop by! Like my tumblr header??? I did a redesign (…actually two) to differentiate my blog from a few similar looking ones that started popping up. I did the header as my digital art final project! I…
Those who follow me on Twitter know how much I love tumblr. Tumblr is to Blogger as an M&M is to a Chocolate Bar The M&M is just as tasty as a Chocolate Bar, but you can eat a bunch of the tiny morsels as opposed to eating one big bar of chocolate. Okay…. poor…
This past week has been beyond strange. A constant push and pull of emotions. One minute, I’m feeling on top of the world. Checking things off my list, writing emails like it’s my job, answering questions, doing homework, studying for exams. Everything in control. The next minute, my brain has 428 different ideas simultaneously bouncing…
I’ve been getting a lot of questions about specific outfits to wear while at school. I know a lot of college campuses are very different in terms of what’s “normal” attire for class. At some schools it’s completely socially acceptable to show up in baggy shirts and athletic shorts. Every school differs. Georgetown (from what…
It’s taken me a long time to realize the true importance of having a network. Partly due to the fact that I was stubborn and would rather not believe that my professors were correct. And partly due to the fact that I didn’t have one. Over the past six months, however, I’ve seen my network grow. The…
Once The College Prepster, always The College Prepster. I will always love a classic outfit from @vineyardvinesā the perfect pieces to kick off my fall wardrobe. Find this outfit, including this must-have wool skirt, in my LTK Shop. https://liketk.it/4Rcup #ad #edsftg
With Jack in preschool and Rory in daycare part time, I am clicking back into gear with work. A little scared to see how it goes and also excited to dive back in. I really do love my job. And as we move into the fourth quarter, things are already heating up- I feel ready to take it on. Before things get even crazier, I also wanted to extend a HUGE thank you to YOU. Whether weāre commiserating about ruined baby naps, chatting about what to wear to a wedding, laughing about being nude and lewd (š¤), sharing memes about American Girl dolls, or adding another bow product to our shopping carts, Iām just so glad youāre here. Iāve been on the internet for so long and can confidently say I have the best group of women following along. Weāve gone through so many life stages together. š«¶š»

A transitional outfit from @jcrew to bridge the gap between summer and fall with all of my favorite feminine touches. You can shop my whole look, including this must-have-for-fall quilted lady jacket, in my @shop.ltk shop! #injcrew #ad
send this to your best friend š«¶š»
@simply_elsa and I met five years ago when I moved to the suburbs. I quite literally slid into her DMs after I saw that she was geotagging a nearby town and seemingly liked cute blue and white things as much as I did- that felt like enough to at least start a friendship with at the time! Thereās something extra special about forming friendships in adulthood. It feels like a conscious choice more than just circumstantial. š«¶š» We help each other with work, with motherhood. Navigating the tough parts of life in your 30s and venting to each other with zero judgment. Sending videos and memes with no additional commentary necessary (a language of its own). Now our children play together (!!!) and itās just a whole new world there too. So glad I sent her that DM asking for a coffee date five years agoā¦ that coffee shop we went to might not be around anymore but our friendship sure is thriving!

Now that school is back in session and summer travels have come to a close, I can feel my social calendar filling up a bit more. Pickleball, needlepoint club, ice cream/library playdates, GNOs at Chiliās... Even as an extreme introvert, Iām kind of excited to have places to go and people to see and the outfits to wear again. šāļøš¤āØ (Comment āfall outfitā and Iāll send you a link to everything Iām wearing!)
Go sports! ā½ļøāš»š„ š¤ Just me and my boys on a misty Saturday morning getting muddy and having fun
