Spring is officially here and I couldn't be happier. I've been in such a better mood since the weather got nice and it's just wonderful. The one thing I like about Spring is the ability to wear a bright colored nail and not have everyone look at you as if you are wearing shorts in December.  The last Manic…

I've been in a very college mood lately. When I say college mood, I mean I would rather be sitting outside with my friends than inside doing work. I mean that my weekends have been better spent going out instead of doing work. This entire semester I have been plowed with work and meetings and responsibilities... n…

I have become a beauty fanatic and jumped on the bandwagon of every new beauty product there is out there. Whether it's a BB cream, concealer, or the latest lip trend, I am right there to try it out and add it to my collection. Whenever I'm shopping in Sephora, the local drug store, or looking to burn some mon…

In the past, I wrote an article for my campus newspaper, The Ionian, about the things freshmen should do at Iona College; everything from the places they should eat, the clubs they should join, and the late night experiences they should have. The past two weekends for me have been glorious. I finally feel like I'…

My sorority's spring formal is tomorrow and everything is set in place: date, dress, shoes, and a guaranteed good time.  There is one piece I am severely missing in this equation: my hair. I have no idea how to style my hair for formal and I have limited experience; I could straighten my hair with a flat iron and …

I think this month's Birchbox is definitely in my top 5 favorite months ever! I peeked inside the box before I received it (as usual) and wasn't that thrilled with everything. Although, when I opened it, I was pleasantly surprised. Almost everything was full sized! This month, Birchbox teamed up with Women'…

The entire sorority, preppy, and colorful world we live in was mourning yesterday as we got news that our queen had passed away. I got a text from one of my sorority sisters exclaiming that "Lilly died!!" and I knew exactly what she meant. I am a walking advertisement for Lilly Pulitzer. I adore the brand an…

This special manicure Monday is all about my favorite springtime nail colors! I love a good, dark coat of polish but when the weather is as nice as it's been the past few days, I can't help but want to break out the light greens, purples, and pinks! Essie and OPI are doing wonderful things this Spring with the…

I'm still on the internship hunt for the summer and it's getting a bit frustrating. I'm not the only one who feels this way; a lot of students are on the prowl for scoring an internship in the last summer semester before we're seniors.  It's a hot topic in conversation with me and my friends; some …

I've talked about before how I gave up shopping for Lent  and successfully achieved that goal. That's why on Easter Sunday I went a tad bit crazy with purchasing online goodies (okay, I'm being dramatic, I ordered two things). Those two items I bought happened to be Lilly! Do you expect anything else? I…
