It's the Little Things

I'm ready for this 3 day weekend.

Here are some little things that are making my week better (unfortunately, they aren't making my week faster! Friday, where are you?!)

 
2 (and a bit) Hours of Jack Johnson.
Yes please.

 
Change: I actually am not a fan of change. Well not the concept of change, but change is needed. Change is good. (Most of the time...) I joined a new club, Robotics, and I'm social media coordinator for it! I'm really excited. This is definitely out of my comfort zone (Student Council, Beta Club, Future Business Leaders of America, volunteering with kids)... but I'm excited to see what I'll find in Robotics club! I now have four Twitter accounts on my phone: my personal, Student Council, Beta Club and Robotics.
I also got accepted into my school's Ambassadors program. It's where students give rising freshmen tours of the school and answer any questions they have. We encourage them to join clubs and sports, and it's going to be really fun! I have my first informational meeting on Thursday and I'm really excited! I knew I wanted to be an ambassador the day I went to freshmen orientation and saw the students doing this! It's going to be so much fun! I know that two of my friends are also ambassadors, so I'm really excited!

Kate Spade Surprise Sale: I don't think I'm going to be buying anything at this surprise sale, but Kate Spade has some great deals! Here are some of my favorites.

Sign Post Scarf
Gold Pyramid Carousel  

Charm City Ostrich Presley
  
Marble Hill Christy

    
Daycation Bon Shopper


Candids:
Twin Day, captioned "Why are you so obsessed with me?" 

Not joking, this was a candid.

Watercolors (Kinda):
Original photo

The watercolor is more obvious when it's bigger.
I love watercolors. Especially ones I can make with the click of a button. Shout out to cell phone apps for making art out of photos just like -that!-

Hope this made you happy. Blogging always makes me happy, so I had to share!

A Few of My Favorite Things... Blogs & Websites

I love reading blogs. Getting a peek into someone's life is so interesting! What could be cooler? Here are some of my favorite blogs.

College Prepster: Obviously. I have already referred to her, but I read Carly's blog everyday. She posts often, and is living the dream in New York City. Carly's Alma mater is the school I want to go to, Georgetown University. Carly blogs about a little bit of everything: fashion, traveling, personal life... mainly fashion. She has the cutest preppy style; I want all of her clothes!

Love Taza: Naomi has the coolest life. Also living in New York City with her two littles, Eleanor, Samson and her husband, Josh; they live such an exciting life, and I love reading about her adventures. Her kids are the cutest, and the entire family has the cutest clothes! She went to Julliard, Josh went to Columbia. (another school I'd love to go to!) And they're from DC. I have read her blog for the longest time; it just makes me so happy. 

Humans of New York: HONY is the main reason I still go on Facebook. Brandon goes around New York City, photographing strangers, and learning about them. HONY shows how everyone has a story, and the stories he encounters are amazing, sad, and life changing. 

The Everygirl: The perfect website for girls everywhere. Fashion, culture, travel, living... all of it in one! I love the sections: Home Tours and Career Profiles, but honestly I love every section. I discovered this website recently, so I still have a lot to read on here. Check it out!

York Avenue: This is the blog I actually found The Everygirl through. Jackie is so cute, and also lives in New York City. (Do all the cool bloggers live in the city?!) She has a great eye for photography, and interior design. Her apartment is featured in The Everygirl's Home Tours! Her apartment is absolutely gorgeous.

Matchbook Magazine: Every girl dreams for a life like Matchbook Magazine. This online magazine is so pretty, and there's a new issue every month! Gorgeous, and filled with great articles. It's a must read!

Amy Stone: Amy's blog shows her eye for photography, and typography. She works for Gap's marketing team, and she knows how to take stunning photos... even if it's just silverware at a cafe. ;) 

Design Darling: Another preppy blog, Mackenzie has the cutest style! Her outfit posts make me green with envy. And... she's BFFs with College Prepster.

Sugar & Cloth: Gorgeous blog with lots of entertaining ideas! Who doesn't love ideas for parties? From recipes to DIYs, Sugar & Cloth is a great spot for celebration inspiration.

The Neo-Traditionalist: Katie is one of the founders of Matchbook Magazine, and this is her personal blog. Posts and photos are traditional with a twist, as the blog's name states. Modern and classic at the same time.

Kate Spade: Kate Spade is one of my all time favorite brands. The personality of the brand is me in a nutshell. It's self explanatory why I love their blog. Can I just live like a Kate Spade girl? This year, Kate Spade's theme is "travel colorfully," and I thought last year's theme couldn't be beat! (things we love) eWell Kate Spade proved me wrong. Each month, Kate Spade focuses on a different place, and has blog posts inspired by that place. As if I couldn't love Kate Spade any more.

These are just a few of my favorite blogs! What are your favorite blogs? Do you blog? What type of blog posts are your favorite? I love posts about traveling, and travel guides, what to do when you're somewhere.

A Few of My Favorite Things... Pinterest

Pinterest is one of my favorite social media websites. The idea is genius! "Pinning" pictures and videos from websites, that link back to the website. You can follow others' accounts, and see all of their "pins." I love the fact that you can find the website that a cute dress is from, or the link to the recipe of that delicious cake.

Here's my Pinterest, feel free to follow me! I pin often. Is it considered an obsession if I have over 15,000 pins?! My favorite board of mine is printspiration, which has a ton of really cool prints. I love seeing the different prints, and art. It really inspires me! I'd love to have all these prints hanging in my future apartment as part of a gallery wall.
