As I mentioned in my Glittery Sparkly Nails post, I am absolutely obsessed with all things glitter right now. It’s fun, and bright, and cheery, and makes anything seem absolutely optimistic. I’ll take (at least) one of everything please. Headband: crewcuts Glitter Bow Headband Shoes: TOMS glitter slip-on, Tory Burch Glitter Reva, Kate Spade Nell…
The last Nico & LaLa giveaway was super super super successful! So successful, Nico & LaLa decided they would absolutely LOVE to offer College Prep readers the chance to win one of their NEW calendars! N&L sent me one to swoon over. And swoon I did. N&L are beyond amazing with small touches. The raffia matches the…

It’s your lucky day (hehe)…. Another College Prepster desktop wallpaper. one may walk over the highest mountain one step at a time. So true, right? I just was instant messaging (wait what, people still do that?) with California Funk and I was saying how I thought that I didn’t think I could get everything done…
Every once and a while, you just stumble on something that is so super small, but means a lot. I saw this floating around tumblr and traced it back to the source: Things We Forget. The concept is absolutely perfect. An inspiring little Post-It (which is, after all, one of my obsessions) left in a…
I’m convinced that my glittery nails have some sort of magical powers that will help me on my exam today……… On that note, I’m OBSESSED with glitter. A much longer, detailed post about my GLITTER obsession to come. That is, once I have a chance to breathe. xoxo PS While I’m off taking a super…
… to start planning those holiday outfits. Everyone probably owns a LBD… at least they should! Instead of buying a handful of dresses for each party, I put together some looks on how to put together interesting new looks for the little black dress. A shorter, simple dress can be spiced up with a pair…
As we move into the hectic holiday season, sometimes it’s too easy to get overwhelmed with everything we have to do. Last week I was incredibly overwhelmed by everything that was being thrown my way. I felt in over my head. But, eleven (not kidding), lists later, I realized that I could manage my time…
Besides homework, blogging, researching, painting, writing….. I do find a little time for my friends! Me and Little V getting ready to celebrate Politician Preppie’s birthday! Not a good picture. At all. But you can see the epic-ness of of Little V’s argyle tights. I was on the phone for-EVER. Ugh. So Lukie Pookie thought…

When your toothbrush (@shoptrask!) is so cute you ALMOST don’t want to use it! I considered “saving” it (for what? I don’t know) and decided to ignore my instinct and enjoy it every day! I often have to remind myself about the number of stickers I didn’t use as a kid because I was “saving” them… or stationery collecting dust in a drawer because I was “saving” them… or candles that went unlit because I was “saving” them… or even a cute outfit I was “saving” for a special occasion. Trying to be better about using the things I have and love without guilt!!
I’ve been loving wearing my scarf collection and I’ve been getting questions about how I tie them! This is probably the way I wear it most- it’s super easy and the trick is to not be overly fussy with it. Go for it and zhuzh it up a little but don’t make it too perfect! Goal is effortless!
Fold the silk scarf across the middle to create a long triangle. Holding the two corners, twist the triangle back *towards* you a few times. While holding the corners, wrap behind your neck crossing behind you and pulling the corners back to the front of your neck. Tie once, then again to secure. I like to tuck mine into a button down!
PS I got this Hermes scarf as a souvenir while in Paris!

A wild Saturday night around here… and I wouldn’t want it any other way! A relaxing shower, clean hair, cozy bedtime routine, sourdough, laundry, a clean playroom, mahjong, (a little sweet treat… or two), needlepoint, skincare, and a good book! What could be better???
An evening routine as a mom of two with timestamps!
