BIRTHDAY BRUNCH

Since I finally got a chance to breath and relax for a milli second, I thought I’d share some of the photos from my good friends 23rd birthday brunch. I know I know, this totally happened like weeks ago but I’ve been on hiatus from blogging for a hot minute, but I’m back and ready for action. School has really picked up and work is crazy right now so blogging unfortunately, had to take a back seat, but I’m back for a full report.

Isn’t my friend Oz a beaut!? I know what your thinking, 23! She’s practically a baby, huh? In any case, she enjoyed her bday and I was so happy to see her. Thank God for another year, #theglowup. I feel like we often get better looking with age. If this is 23, I can’t wait to see this beaut at 30. She’s going to be smoking hot!

Shout out to you Oz. Love you to the moon and back.

In case you’re wondering, I’m rounding up some new content with amazing color packed outfits. #staytuned.

Sincerely,

When work and play collide you get this. B and I took a road trip to Richmond, Virginia to see one of our old work friends, Nelle. She is a youth coordinator for a town close to Richmond and  has been out there close to a year. Long distance relationships are hard and we were so missing her so we jumped in the car and took that 3 hour drive to her neck of the woods. We did a radio show about Nelle’s work with the youth and our work with NC State University. We also toured every location possible in Richmond, hit up a coffee shop with only two flavors (one of them not being hazelnut 😦  ate way to many carbs, specifically deep fried onion rings 🙂 , took lots of pics, regrettably, bought cheap lipstick from the thrift for an impromptu lipstick try on party, made multiple trips to target for better lipstick hours later, stayed up way to late, and had our fair share of wine slushies. Oh yeah, we also attended one of Nelle’s youth work events. It was a great weekend but the fun is over and it’s back to spinach leaves for dinner, no Netflix binge sessions, no wine at 10 in the morning, and no more deep conversations at 3am with Nelle’s cat, Friday.

In the Richmond area? Visiting soon? Check out a list of  some of the places B, Nelle, and I visited on our weekend trip below.

Alchemy Coffee
Cary town Cupcakes
Circle Thrift & Art Space
Bev’s Homemade Ice Cream
Ashton Creek Vineyard

Till the next trip. Happy hump day!

SUMMER YARD SALE

In case you were wondering how this whole yard sale business went, I posted a few shots for you. Sorry, no pics of the people who shopped our clothes as I don’t want to get sued, LOL. All in all, it was a good day of selling. We sold a lot of pieces and I’m satisfied with the turn out. I don’t often see yard sales in my neighborhood so neighbors were surprised to see me outside selling my clothes and knick knacks with my friends. I still have plenty of gently worn pieces leftover so DM me if your interested in seeing what I have for sale. I’m holding on to a few pieces and just waiting to meet people who need a piece or two for their closet. Hope your week is going well. It’s back to school for me today so I’m hoping to do a post about my back to school styling essentials. Stay tuned. 🙂 

Sincerely,
