Happy Friday + Some Fun Links!

Happy Friday! I'm so excited that it's officially Christmas break! What are all of your plans for the holidays? Penelope and I are heading down to North Carolina to spend the break with my boyfriend and his family so we're totes excited! I've never been down south so I'm looking forward to experiencing it all and picking up a southern accent...duh. Also we're going to spend some time in South Carolina and tour all of the locations from the movie The Notebook! Gahhh I'm sooo souped for that! Well have a great weekend and below are some fun links from around the web.

This week has been all about getting my work life balance back. I don't know about you guys but whenever I travel for a weekend and come back I feel so out of sorts and it always takes me one too many days to recover. So logically this memorial day weekend I'm traveling out of the state (such a hypocrite I know, hehe). Well, I hope your 3 day weekend is full of sunshine and sporting your hot summer bod at the beach. I've been working really hard on mine and I even signed up for a personal trainer! I decided I wanted to go into the second half of my 20s the way I want to leave my 20s, in the best shape of my life. I'll be in a place that is raining ALL weekend long so please enjoy the sun for me (if your weather is permitting it.) Stay warm, get tan, and eat a lot of (tofu) hot dogs!

Things That Make Me Happy

This week has been going well, last weekend I went to Philly to celebrate a friend's birthday and it was just a fan-ta-bulous time! Then I spent the rest of the weekend resting at home, going to the mall, and mass. I'm really looking forward to this Halloween celebration weekend because I'm going to be dressed as Britney Spears from the Baby One More Tim Video which should be epic. Anywhoos here are the things that are currently making me uber happy!

Taylor Swift's new album "Red" I'm loving every-single-song!

                                                                                                          

People always laugh at me when I say this but going to the Staten Island Mall makes me so happy. It's full of chain stores, unhealthy take out food, and women walking around in mini skirts and Uggs, I mean it feels like I'm home in southern California every time I'm there!

These "happy notes" from Anthropologie

Jessica's wedding dress, umm pink? Yes! Loving it!

My sassy new hair cut! I love Parlor Hair Salon! They always load me up on trashy magazines, chamomile tea, and give me massage while my hair is drying! If you mention my name they'll give you 10% off!
