Fall in July
This weekend I went to visit my cousins to celebrate my uncle's birthday! The house we had the party at had a pool, a heated pool to be specific. Now, you may ask, why on earth would you need a heated pool in July? The answer: because it has been cold!lThe Chicago area is having quite a chilly spell for summer. Just a little while ago it was ungodly hot and I posted about the infused water I had been making to stay hydrated. Now, instead of infused water or iced coffee, I've been wanting …
Twinning in Tiffany Blue
Hey darlings! How have you been? My summer has been going wonderfully and I've been just the right amount of busy. One fun thing I got to do recently was meet up with one of my fabulous blog friends, Chloe from The Preppy Diaries & PopCosmo! When we found out that Chloe and her mom were coming to Chicago for BlogHer '13 we knew we had to figure out a way to meet up for a bit while she was here. So, we hung out at the 900 North Michigan Shops on Michigan Avenue to do some shopping, get …

One Direction Take Me Home Tour
This past Sunday, July 14th, I was able to go see One Direction on their Take Me Home Tour!!! For those of you who were not already aware, I absolutely love 1D. I've had "What Makes You Beautiful" or "Back For You" set as my ringtone for the past two years. (I like to alternate between them.) Needless to say, I'm a pretty big fan of One Direction, so I was super pumped to be attending one of their concerts at last!I purchased my tickets over a year ago and I'd been looking forward to the concert …
Mystic Blue
This weekend was my best friend Marina's graduation party. To celebrate, we went to Navy Pier for a lunch cruise and party on the Mystic Blue. It was so much fun! We had great views of the Chicago skyline and Lake Michigan as well as plenty of yummy food and drinks. The weather was absolutely gorgeous that day and I loved being out on the water! I had a blast and it was great to see old friends as well as make new ones in such a fun venue. It was the perfect afternoon!pink lemonade + sierra mist …
Matchbox Twenty & the Goo Goo Dolls
This past Tuesday I went to hear Matchbox Twenty and the Goo Goo Dolls with a few of my friends at Ravinia. We had an absolutely fabulous time and the music was great! The show was actually quite long, because the two bands are co-headlining the tour, but that honestly made it even better. We basically got two concerts in one! My friends and I had a picnic dinner out on the lawn with some mexican food, pizza, sweet treats, sodas, and lemonade. The outdoor aspect is one of my favorite things …

Summer Solstice Supermoon
It's the weekend of the supermoon! Now, you're probably wondering what a supermoon is. According to National Geographic, a supermoon occurs during the time in which the moon is closest to earth and is in the fullest part of its cycle. This occurrence causes the moon to look eight percent larger and seventeen percent brighter than usual. In other words, it's really beautiful.I took trip to the beach with my family last night so we could check it out for ourselves. The moon was …
