Hello from Prague!! I have been here about 10 days now and already can't believe how fast my time in Prague is going.

I honestly wear watches ALL the time in college. Some of the classrooms at my school don't have clocks, and I always like keeping track of the time during class. It's really hard for me to find watches that complement all of the jewelry I wear each day, but I have found one that I [...]

Let me start this post off by saying two things about me: 1) I drop my phone approximately 20 times per day 2) Because of this I always need to have a protective case, which normally aren't the cutest cases. A few months ago I did one of my favorite collaborations with CaseApp and have [...]
I remember exactly how I was feeling this time last year as I was about to embark on one of the biggest journey's of my life so far--college. The month before you go off to live on your own can be intimidating. I was super nervous, excited, and scared for all the unknown. The only [...]

Dorm rooms in college can very stressful.

If you're anything like me, white teeth have always been a struggle since I literally drink so much coffee during the day.

As I am sitting down in Cape Cod, listening to "Ho Hey" by the Lumineers (a classic), I can't help but realize that yet another year has passed. I think of the person I was in the beginning of 2017 and she feels like a stranger to me. This year I have really grown into [...]
I have had such a relaxing winter break so far, and have even learned to embrace the cold. Going to school in the South completely changed my concept of what "cold" really was until I came back to the North to go home. My sister and I decided to adventure in the snow and had [...]
