Another week is over, the first full week of December and we're one day closer to Christmas. Since I hit my twenties, I feel like Christmas has never felt like Christmas but I make the most out of it every year. I thought this year would feel different because I was REALLY looking forward to it, but I am feeling t…

With the entire blogosphere in the blogmas/vlogmas spirit, I figured I'd try to join in as much as I can. Most of my content this month will be Christmas & winter related so I figured I could name it blogmas and just do as much as possible. I named this day 2 because I went and changed my Hot Drink Station pos…

Today I turn 25 years old. That seems like an unreal age for me. I felt this way when I turned 13 years old, 16 years old, 18, 20, and 21. The past few birthdays have been uneventful but yet, here we are at another milestone. For my last milestone birthday, I was in my senior year of college, ready to drink my face of…

IT IS SEPTEMBER 1ST! I am so excited that it's the start of my favorite season ever! I've been waiting for this since LAST September! We've been having a bit of an Indian summer in New York the past two weeks or so and it's been a really great taste of fall. When I woke up today, it was 55 degrees and …

This was such a short, weird week and I'm so confused LOL. I went to a Mets game yesterday with my office (it was our summer outing) and it was probably the hottest day of the year. I got so sick from the heat, I was out of commission all day. All day, it felt like a Saturday because my mom and my sister were home…

I did my first Little Loves post a while back and never continued the series. I figured I'd do another one since it's been so long since my last. There are things that I discover every day, whether they're new or something I've rediscovered in my collection, and I don't always get to share them wi…

Hello July!! I feel like summer is going to fly by now, especially that I'm going to be busy with lots of fun stuff. That's definitely a good thing though! I have a summer Friday today so it was a two day work week for me, and a three day weekend. What am I supposed to do with all this free time?! It's als…

The calm before the storm.... if the storm if a 4 day weekend! The holiday weekend is upon us and for once, I can't wait. I actually have some plans and I'm excited for some serious down time. I say that every week but it doesn't really ever change, does it? The week was interesting... a very slow work wee…

Since I was a little girl I loved being alone. My mom tells me stories of how I would sit in my room for hours, on the floor, playing with my 'people'. She would call out to me "Briana, come sit with Mommy" and as a 2-3 year old girl I'd shout back "I'm playing with my people!" As I…

I'm someone who loves paper; books, magazines, planners, notebooks, cards, etc. I love holding an actual paper in my hands, I'm constantly printing out things I could read online or writing down lists in one of my 50 notebooks. I've been that way forever and I've documented that many times before. Sch…

What better day to share my morning routine than on a glorious, hot Monday morning! I've been wanting to share my morning routine for quite a while but never felt it was worth it. It still may not be worth it but I really did want to share it. My weekend routine is much different, obviously, because I'm not go…

Another week in the books and a long weekend is ahead of us! I'm off today and Monday so a nice, long four day weekend is just what I need. I'll be heading off to Pennsylvania next week for a few days on a work trip (what else) so blogging will be limited but for now, here we are! I don't have much else to…

Happy Friday! It was another long week at work and I'm very excited for the weekend, even though I will be headed to Pennsylvania for the day tomorrow for another work event. There are so many work things in the next few weeks, it's going to be a whirlwind. In other news, summer is heating New York early becau…

I'm back! I didn't think the newsletter weekly wrap up would be so short but I think I put too much faith in myself. I'm not ready for to take a series that I love (because I do love these posts) and put it solely in an email. I also don't know if I have 5 days of true, original content, and I'm co…

I feel like I should've gotten past my Kate Spade obsession by now but this phase has lasted for quite a long time. I've always gone through phases over obsessing about something but this Kate Spade phase is nowhere near over. I think this is a long-term love affair and I'm quite ok with that. I spend a …

Happy Friday! I'm very excited for the week to come to the end and for the weekend to arrive because I'm going to Florida on Tuesday! It's for a work trip but I'm so excited to travel SOMEWHERE. I'm also going to Disneyworld so YAYYYYYY. It's the first time I've been in 10 years so I'm …

I was never the fashion girl, says the girl who has been running a lifestyle blog since 2012. I wore simple things from simple stores, but always envied those who knew how to put an outfit together. I've definitely gotten better in the past few years, since discovering the online world of my favorite fashion blogg…
