Welcome Back

Wow, it been a long time since I've updated my sweet little blog.. Sorry for the time apart but life has been crazy to say the least this past month. I always find it hard (as well as fun) to transition back into college life. As soon as I arrived back to my second home, Tuscaloosa, AL, I instantly jumped into a week of rush workshop followed by a week of sorority recruitment. Rush is time consuming to say the least!! Bid Day could not have come soon enough and we now have a beautiful pledge class of 98 new Zeta Babies! Classes have been in session for  a few weeks now and I am finally beginning to feel back into the swing of things! Here are a few pictures from this years recruitment!

So excited running in with our new Zeta Babies!

Loving the faces ladies!

The best 4 years of my life!

More posts to come!!

Summer Nail Essentials

Summer is the perfect time to step out of your comfort zone and try a daring new pop of polish. I've put together six of my favorite summer colors, and it may come as no surprise that Essie is my favorite brand!

1. Set in Stone - Best described as mirror disco ball chaos! Apply this luxeffect top coat to any color and prepare to be wowed. I like to add it to my ring finger for a unique twist on my manicure.  

2. Cascade Cool - I recently applied this pink Cascade Cool to my toes and couldn't help but smile every time I looked down at them.

3. Playdate - Every since I was a little kid I've had a special place in my heart for purple shades. This purple makes the cut for me, as well as my inner six year old.

4. Mint Candy Apple - Mint Candy Apple stands in my top five nail polish colors for any season. You can find me summer or fall, rockin this polish, plus mint is a huge color this season.

5. Fear or Desire - I have a bright orange crush on this polish! I'll often paint only my pinky finger with it, while the rest of my fingers are painted a hot pink!

6. Go Overboard - This blue polish is a constant reminder of the ocean, no wonder it makes me so happy!

Garden of Your Mind

A few weeks ago I came across this video, 'Garden of Your Mind' a remixed video from the show 'Mr. Rogers Neighborhood'. Being a huge Mr. Rogers fan back in the day, this video instantly brought me back to my childhood and continues to make me happy every time I watch it.  I hope you enjoy!

What are some of your favorite remixes?

Flashy

Today's blog post is all about statement pieces.  Oh what I would give to have some of these pieces sitting pretty on my vanity...

"Not that I give a hoot about jewelry. Diamonds, yes. But it's tacky to wear diamonds 

before you're forty" Breakfast at Tiffany's

These Geo Rrings from A Merry Mishap's Etsy shop are an eclectic find

I have a soft spot for turquoise jewelry, and these earrings are definitely helping!

This necklace is not only a show stopper, but also available at an amazing price!

Swoon time. One part childhood, one part glam and you've got one rockin set of bracelets 

Reminiscent of the beach, these Lilly Pulitzer earrings could really make an all white outfit pop

What are some of your favorite statement pieces?

Pick a Pearl

Among-st my Epcot drink around the world tour (which I will most certainly blog about) I stumbled across the "Pick a Pearl" station in Japan's Mitsukoshi store.  There is a tank set up at the stand filled with little clams for you to choose one of your liking.  Inside your clam will await your very own pearl, they are all different sizes and some clams even hold two!  Once you choose your clam (mine was a hairy little guy) the man behind the counter performs a ceremony before he opens the clam revealing your pearl.  I ended up picking a 7 and 1/4 size pearl with a green and pink tint.  Needless to say I was very pleased and the pearl I chose will stay near and dear to my heart.  Maybe I will have it made into a necklace!

Wine Walk

I had quite the Saturday this week spent in New Smyrna beach participating in the monthly 'Wine Walk'. Wow did I have a great time tasting and testing different wines while hopping in and out the local bars.  Although the tour is technically a "wine" walk, I must say that two of my favorite drink included a frozen fresh peach bellini and an almond flavored champagne.

What did you do this weekend?

Orlandooo

Sorry for the slim pickins worth of blog posts this week.  Currently I am in Orlando playing in the pool, visiting theme parks, and getting some well deserved r&r.  I have to say, I really have forgotten how much fun a vacation can be.  I'll tell ya, my inner seven year old at the moment is fidgeting in my seat with excitment because I am about to head to Epcot, while my inner adult is pretty psyched too about some drinking around the world I have planned!

Have you been on any exciting vacations this summer?
