BESTIE BIRTHDAY BEHAVIOR

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Whew, still trying to recover from a weekend full of fun with friends. Spent the whole weekend celebrating my bestie’s 30th birthday. You know it’s your 30th if all you do is relax, eat, watch Netflix and reminisce about the college days. We started this weekend party off right with some delicious food from Yard House. Yup, I’m boring, I order the turkey burger and fresh greens every single time I eat here. We surprised Nat with some roses, a birthday cake with bad writing on it (Long story about my trip to the grocery store) and some spa day activities for her to enjoy while in Raleigh. Here’s hoping she lets me tag along when she goes for her spa day 😉 All in all, my med school mami was happy and full of love and joy.

Notice anything different about my lips? Coped a new lippy from the Target make-up isle for this b-day dinner. I’ve linked it above for your purchasing pleasure and I’ve also linked a similar white blazer; got mine from H&M about a year ago and it’s simply classic, goes with just about anything really. 

I have some serious birthday hotel shenanigans to post next. Stay tuned. 

Sincerely,

SNOW DAY

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On your mark, get set, GO! When it snows I find every opportunity to run, and play and enjoy it to the fullest before it turns to black ice. Charlie had to work yesterday 😦 but right after he got off work I dragged him out again so I get my dose of snow day fun. Old Downtown Garner is the cutest little town and has some of the best little spots to just hang out, snap some shots, read and chillax. I made Charlie take me to the Starbucks up the street after I was done playing in the snow but they were closed 😦 I had no coffee at the house so a trip to the coffee shop was necessary. Yesterday was literally the first day in years where I skipped my morning Jo. I know, its so sad. 

Before you go, I linked a similar pair of shiny red rain boots at the top and a similar green hooded cargo jacket. I got my jacket from American Eagle over the summer and the red rain boots from Aldo a few years back. Speaking of Aldo, their having an amazing sale on shoes today, 50% off, can’t beat that.

Stay warm out there guys!

Sincerely,

CASUAL COZY WITH TIGHT KNIT NYC

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It’s cold out here on these streets so I stay bundled up with my new infinity scarf by
Tight Knit NYC. How else do you expect me to stay warm and stylish all at the same time? Speaking of stylish, I kept it real casual but colorful and paired my new scarf with some skinny denim, a basic plaid button up and cute suede wedges.  With a scarf color this bold and green, your outfit should include relaxed colors that let the scarf pop and do it’s thing.

NC is calling for some serious snow and ice this weekend so I pulled this baby out because I know I can weather the storm with this wrapped around my neck 4 or 5 times, is it hot in here or is it just me? Yup, I said it, this scarf goes a long ways, and I mean that literally. When I received it I was so happy with how much fabric there really was. FYI, it’s a nice wool fabric and handmade, might I add. I’m prepared for any snow flurry or icicle that comes my way this weekend because I’ll be immersed in a bundle full of warm and cozy. You can be too so I’m starting off the new year right and giving you 25% of your Tight Knit NYC purchase when you use code: COILSCURLSCOZY.

I’ve linked my amazing new scarf, my plaid top, denim bottoms, and a similar pair of shoes at the top for your shopping pleasure. If you or someone you know has shopped Tight Knit NYC before, I would love to hear about the experience or see photos of how you styled your item. Feel free to comment in the comment box below. Stay warm lovelies. Oh one more thing, I know your wondering how this scarf can be dressed up for a night out on the town, so stay tuned because I have an outfit idea up my sleeve.

Sincerely,

Deidra Marie
