rejoice.

This post is dedicated to my last couple of weeks in New York. As of today,
I officially have 23 days left in which, I've decided to make the most of every
moment. There has been a lot of worrying and unsure thoughts running
through my mind lately, but it's amazing what a little bit of scripture does 
to a girl. One day I'll realize there are thousands of things more important 
in this world than myself. I'm very thankful for everyone in my life, and I'm
especially grateful to have Court & Zac in NYC with me. I'd be lost without 
God, friends and family. The last two nights, Court and I have had our "life talks" 
over dinner which basically consists of us whining about what we are going to do
with our lives after the big city and prior to graduation. In the mean time, all we 
know to do is to create a NY bucket list. Wahlah:

"Don't worry about anything, instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7
Cheers!

stripes.

I'm not going to lie... one of my favorite looks to wear is the classic,
put-together, almost effortless preppy look. Like last spring, stripes are
everywhere right now. Thank goodness my closet seems to be stocked...
(for the time being). Here's what I'm throwing together, and
what fresh stripes are raining in from the runways.
Check out my look featured on 'StyleBy.me' NWA's local lookbook


 Cheers!

I spent most of my time this weekend with Courtney going to yoga, 
shopping in SOHO and eating sushi. I'm looking forward to going to 
Little Rock this weekend. I can't wait to feel warm weather! Thinking 
about being in Arkansas this summer makes me so excited. 
Things I miss most about Ark:
1. Devil's Den
2. Wilson Park
3. Farmer's Market
4. Trees... and Hammontree's. 
5. The Tin House!!
So soon, I'll be back! I can't wait! Happy Valentine's Day! Happy birthday Maura!

Things I love about Valentine's Day:

Have a great day today!!
Cheers!

love love love.

It was so nice having today off. It was a easy day filled with english
breakfast tea, yoga and a wedding dress fitting with my step-sister, Jen. 
Awhile back, Jen chose a dress that ironically is made by Carol Hannah, 
(the designer I intern with) and it was pretty exciting seeing Carol Hannah 
in the studio sewing the buttons onto the dress and then to see my sister 
trying it on tonight. Also! I was in Greenwich Village (which is the cutest area 
in NY) and I saw Jennifer Love Hewitt walking! 
Here some pictures from my lovely day. 
cutest bridal shop, Lovely
if only i took a picture of her stupid Louboutins. 


Cheers!

greener grass.

After a long week of complaining/crying/feeling sorry for myself
over my tiring, unpaid, coffee-filled hours put in at W... I have 
decided to end my pity party and realize how lucky I am. Experiences
like mine come once in a lifetime, and despite some concerns, I'm 
extremely, extremely grateful. Most people don't know that I also 
spend my time in New York interning with Carol Hannah, from 
Project Runway. She shares her bridal studio with Logan (also from her
Project Runway season). Below you can see where I spend my Wednesdays 
in her cute Hell's Kitchen abode. I live in Hell's Kitchen area, which is where 
Court and I have spent most of our weekends over the last month. We have 
been going to yoga in town, enjoying quaint restaurants, and heavenly flea markets. 
Weekends can't get much better than that.
my wednesdays. 
Room divided, literally. CH designs bridal and Logan works with fur and leather.
It's interesting in the studio to say the least
. :)

To a good week:
