This weekend my sorority held our annual philanthropy event for the Make a Wish Foundation! We spent the week selling hair ties, bracelets, and Jamba Juice around campus, followed by a dodgeball tournament on Sunday. Lots of people came out to participate and help out, so we were able to raise over $11,000! With the money that we've raised up to this point, we are able to grant two wishes to children with life threatening illnesses. Hosting this event with my sisters was such a rewarding …

I am shocked by how fast October flew by this year. It really feels like just yesterday it was September! This month's playlist certainly has quite a variety of genres, but if I had to pick my top three songs that have been on repeat, then I'd have to go with Rough Water, Dark Horse, and Tennis Court. Hope you enjoy the playlist!~Listen on Spotify~What's your favorite song for the month?xoxo, …

“Golden Slumbers” Bowtiful Wallpaper ~ October
Happy October! I absolutely love fall and one of my favorite things about the season is the way that the leaves change from rich greens to bright oranges, deep reds, and beautiful golds. This month's wallpaper color palette was inspired by fall in general, but especially by these changing colors. I absolutely love the way that this one turned out and I'm currently using it as my background on my macbook. Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

Big/Little Week
My sorority had Big/Little reveal this past Friday!

Every night I went to the designated room to pick up my gift and was so surprised by what was left for me (and my TWIN!) Yep, I'm a twin!

Fall Break
Today is my last day of fall break! That being said, this hiatus from school has been absolutely wonderful and oh so necessary. I've been sleeping (er... catching up on sleep), reading, latte drinking, shopping, catching up on my favorite TV shows, and lots of hanging out with friends and family. My roommate and I like to make Grumpy Cat jokes.... so this was necessarilywritten on our whiteboard before we left our dorm for break.Yesterday I went to lunch with a few of my fabulous ChiO …
