First, I apologize for the crappy photos. Pictures at dusk are not fun/easy to take. Last Friday I got to experience one of those “New York things” that I had been wanting to experience since I moved here- an outdoor movie. Outdoor movies around New York City are a HUGE thing. Parks, rooftops, parking lots, … Continue reading »

I love lifestyle blogs. Sometimes I try to be one. But I just can’t. Is it cause I’m terrible at life? Maybe not. I just don’t think I could teach anyone anything about hair, fashion, nails, DIY, design, etc. That is why I subscribe to so many blogs. Teach me wise ones. But today, I … Continue reading »
