a quick post

Today is going to be a rather quick post because yesterday (today as I write this) was kind of a crappy day (migraine, nausea, stress, all that fun stuff). So I definitely think it's time to have another favorite/inspiring quote round up. 

I hope everyone has wonderful days today! (And don't forget to play!)

travel mugs

Not to be dramatic or anything, but I would definitely die without travel mugs. With my day usually starting around 5 am (why did I want to go into nursing again?) and with it being absolutely freezing, coffee has become pretty much essential. (Or a chai tea latte or hot chocolate. Yay for Keurigs!) And I can never drink a whole cup before I go, so I usually just make it straight into my travel mug so I can take it with me. And having a cute one is pretty much a given, right?

the mint julep boutique giveaway!

Doesn't it seem like there's a million and one different clothing boutiques out there now? So many options! I love when I find one through recommendations of friends and bloggers, because then you know it's going to be a good one! Which is exactly what The Mint Julep Boutique turned out to be! So many options, and all of them cute. Plus, they're great quality clothes, which can be hard to find in the internet world sometimes! I'm pretty much obsessed with this sweater dress, because it's a different shape than I'm used to, but still manages to keep me warm!

insta roundup

Happy Monday! (Not really happy, but positive thinking! ....and lots of coffee.) Hope everyone had a great weekend! I took a quick trip home and had some parent time (yay!) and then saw 50 Shades last night with one of my friends! (Not gonna lie...I loved it.) I figured I'd ease into the week with an insta roundup, and catch up with all of you! (And have a little bit of a catch up and organize kind of day.)

Is it really Valentine's Day if you don't eat something heart shaped? ;)

I have an obsession with notecards, and this set from Chicfetti (c/o) is too cute!

Blanket scarves, pink nails and big travel mugs. Aka absolute necessities. 

I spent the super bowl with the fluffiest, most mellow cat ever. And if you can't tell, he's wearing a bow tie!

I got this lazy susan of gel pens for Christmas, and I'm obsessed. I totally have a love for office supplies. (Especially when they're color coordinated!)

The Longest Ride was a FANTASTIC book (one of my favorite love stories ever!) and I absolutely cannot wait for the movie to come out in April. (Plus, Scott Eastwood is the main guy. And he's gorgeous.)

How was everyone's weekend?

weekly roundup

one: Vintage style Disney Valentine's Day cards. So adorable!

two: SO FUNNY. Jamie Dornan (aka Christian Grey) was on Jimmy Fallon, and they played a game called 50 accents of grey, where they read parts of the book in different accents. It's too good. (PS, anyone else seeing the movie this weekend??)

three: Can you guys tell I get pumped for everything and anything Disney? There's a new trailer out for the Cinderella movie, and it made me even more excited! It looks AMAZING!

four: And what would a weekly roundup be without a puppy video? Watch this adorableness of a guy singing his puppies to sleep. 

Hope you all have a happy Valentine's Day weekend!

work it out

I am really trying to stick to my resolution of working out more this year! My friend and I started working out together Mondays and Tuesdays after classes so we can force each other to do it, so it's definitely a start! ;) Now I just have to figure out a way to get over my gym anxiety (aka hating going to the gym/doing classes alone) so I can start doing it more often! This has definitely been my go to outfit every time I do work out. I scored the pants on sale for $10 (thanks to mom's Macys card!) and I'm pretty much obsessed with my hot pink Nike Frees! (also, in full disclosure, I would never actually workout outside in the snow!)
