Relay 4 Life

Last night I participated in my second Relay for Life. Yet again, it was such an amazing experience. I participated with my sorority Alpha Mu Sigma, but many other clubs and organizations from around campus formed teams and participated as well. Why am I telling you this? So you do it too! Most college campuses and many towns around the country hold an event every year. I have never met a person who has participated and said he or she regretted it the next day.
So heres the deal,
You lose:

• One night of sleep
• The feeling in your legs or feet temporarily from walking/being cold
• One less night of partying and bad decisions

You gain:

• Some new/closer friendships (because everyone is your friend when you are cold at 2am and just want to snuggle)
• Obviously new photos for your Facebook because I mean, pics or it didn't happen right?
• Memories that will last a lifetime
• The knowledge that you are helping to finish the fight against cancer
• Some great stories to tell all your other lame friends who didn't participate the next day. 

So whatever your reasoning behind participating in Relay For Life, the bottom line is you're doing a great thing and you will have a TON of fun doing it. 

We all know someone who has been affected by cancer. Cancer is a horrible disease that takes too many good people too soon. By giving up one night a year, we can be that much closer to ending this tragic disease forever. But if we all give up one night a year more people will get to celebrate a BIRTHDAY EVERY YEAR! (Because everyone loves birthdays!)

So, what are you waiting for! Look up a Relay For Life in your area. Don't have one? Start one! It will change your life!

Luke Bryan Was A Stripper

So, Luke Bryan in my opinion is one of the hottest country singers out there. In fact I would go as far to say that he is one of the hottest men out there! He is one of the few men in this world who can rock tight jeans and rock them well! If you have seen him in concert (I'm extremely jealous) you know that he is quite good at shaking that perfect butt of his! That being said! Some genius somewhere went ahead and put Luke Bryan shaking his perfect behind into a series of clips to the surprisingly fitting song "Don't Drop that Thun Thun Thun" by Finatticz. I swear this man was a stripper in a past life! (I also want to mention that I own nothing that involves this video I and simply sharing this beautiful link!)

So watch and enjoy what may be the best 3 minutes of your life!

They should really remake "Magic Mike" but with country singers... That may be the hottest movie ever!
You know you love it.

Looking Cute and Comfy in Class

There is always that dilemma every college girl faces when she gets ready for class in the morning, "Am I going to try today, or just be comfy?" It's a tough question that seldom has a correct answer. Everyone has those days where they just want to sit in sweatpants and a sweatshirt and not care what the world thinks, but we all also want to look cute when we go to class. I mean if you don't you know you'll run into someone you want to impress. Well, I had the idea to share some of my favorite outfits to wear to class. I chose these outfits to share because they allow me to be as comfy as if I was in sweatpants, but I'm still not embarrassed to run into the cute baseball boys who live on the floor below me.

It's important to be both comftorable and adorable in class because then you feel confident in class as well. You won't mind answering the teacher's questions or making that brilliant point you just came up with in your head since you're not afraid to have everyone look at you. After all, you look good remember?!

So I have divided the outfits into three sections:
1. Comfy Sweaters. These can be adorable with jeans, or leggings. I LOVE riding boots, so I wear mine practically everyday, but of course you can change them out for something else.

2. Flannels. Flannels are the definition of comfy, and when you throw a vest over it you add a bit of prep to it as well! (Especially when you're wearing you're signature pearl earrings).

This flannel is from the boy section of American Eagle so it's double the comfy of a normal flannel!

3. The last pieces that I love are Wrap Cardigans. They come in all kinds of patterns and again can be worn with anything! Not to mention it's kinda like wearing a blanket around you all day!

 This one is my favorite piece currently in my closet! It is so comfy but the aztec print and bright pink color really make it stand out! I bought it from Francessca's. 

This one is just like the other one except a bit more neutral, but just as comfy to wear. Again, I bought it from Francessca's. 

Obviously, these outfits are all based on my personal style and what I had available to me in my closet! They are simply to get you inspired for the next time you get ready for class!

What's you're favorite thing to wear to class? Let me know!!

Interesting Article on School Dress Code

For the first time in school, I am no longer told what to wear. I get to decide if I look professional, preppy, or like a typical college student who just rolled out of bed, and I LOVE it! So, why does this matter? Well, I saw this article linked on Facebook, and it caught my eye. I think it has some really interesting points in it that I would like to share as well. I firmly believe that every woman is BEAUTIFUL. No matter what you size you wear or what you look like, every woman deserves to feel confident and powerful because she is. Every woman has the right to decide how she wants to present herself to world because a confident woman is a POWERFUL woman, and a powerful woman is one of the most powerful forces on the earth.
So, if you have a minute, take a look here, and let me know what you think.

(This is the main photo from the article. I don't own anything or take any responsibility)

Stay preppy. Stay beautiful. Stay powerful.

Starting a New Semester

Winter Break has tragically come to an end now. Unfortunately, that means I can no longer sleep in every day and the inevitable and dreaded homework is back..... But, it also means new things to learn, and I get to spend everyday with my best friends all over again. So, I picked up a few things to hopefully make the semester go by a bit more smoothly.

1. Notebooks: I get one single subject notebook for each class that I know I'm going to have to take notes in. These are also classes that I know do not have set Power Points to print out for notes.
2. Colored Pens! I love colored pens. No study guide or notebook is completely without at least 3 different colors throughout! They truly make things so much easier to see and even easier to study!
3. Binder Clips: These are great for keeping loose papers together that are just too large for paperclips. I also got various colors so that I can coordinate for different classes. 

So those are my three main things I got for this semester. I also have other things from the previous semester that I have kept. Things like 

• Lilly Pulitzer Agenda Book: I literally have EVERYTHING in this planner. I write everything down in it from due dates for assignments to times for meetings. It is my saving grace. (All in pink ink of course!)
• Lilly Pulitzer Notebook: I use this to make to-do lists for the week. I also have it for a list of homework to do over the weekend, and I also cross each assignment off when I finish it so I can see what I get done and how much is actually left and not just in my head. 
• Vera Bradley Folders: I love these folders cause they really last! I have had them and used them every day for 2 years now and they still look near new. I use one folder per class and carry my essential papers for that class in them from my room to class. They're a lot lighter than a large binder, which is great for my back while walking across campus.

So now I probably have enough to open my own office supply shop, but oh well! I'm prepared for anything. 

What do you always need when you start something new?
