NYE with Aerie "Night In"




Time for part two of my New Year's Eve looks with Aerie! Yippee! This look was all about a "night in", which, I thought was so fun because, as a teenager, this is how I spent most of my New Years. I was a pretty tame kid. :) Of course, now a days, I'm more a fan of going out dancing and driving around at night excitedly anticipating a new year and a "new me" but I'm sure soon enough I'll be back to celebrating the new year snuggled in at home! Also, I just have to throw this out there, I don't know how many of you are Foster the People fans, but I am and every time I wear this beanie all I can think of is that lyric, "I'm Superman and it's my show" from the song "Don't Stop". Soooo, I'm Superman and this is my show. ;) Anyway, posting twice in one day means I'm kind of short on things to talk about. Yikes! How were yer weekends? Mine was pretty dang fab! I saw the "Tree of Life" for the first time which was super nice and then I got my butt pretty much whooped at just about every board game I own. Stink. Don't worry, though, this will not be a regular occurrence. ;)

For a night in, watching the ball drop on Times Square on the good old television, the key to a cute look is keeping it cozy while bringing in fun sparkly elements that make it so it doesn't feel like just another boring night at home! This sequined bralette layered underneath this soft henley is the perfect way to add that bit of New Year's fun while these cozy little knit PJ shorts keep things casual and comfy! Thanks again to Aerie for sponsoring this fun NYE series and I hope you guys got some fun outfit inspiration from it! I'll be back tomorrow with a couple more NYE looks for you all!

Much love!

Sleep Zombie





Guys, I am 100% the type of person that needs to have all technology snatched from her hands the moment the clock strikes 10:00. Mostly because after 10 o'clock I just can't be judged to actually be fully coherent or even fully aware of what the crap I'm talking about it. I swear, it's like my body goes into autopilot and I turn into a half asleep zombie that types up super weird posts and shoots off nonsensical texts. I think I've mentioned before that I've had problems with sleep texting a couple of times. Moments when I'd wake up randomly in the night, grab my phone, and type up a weird text message to someone. Like, legit weird and not even coherent. Most of the time I failed to hit send so I was saved the embarrassment of having to explain to people why I sent them a weird text about flying squid or something equally as random at 2 in the morning. The funny thing is, though, that in the moment I think I'm being a complete genius, like I've just typed up the most brilliant beyond brilliant message. It's soooooooo bad, haha. Anyway, yeah, that's that. Never let me touch a phone or computer once I reach my "half asleep" mode. The results are not pretty. ;)

Christmas, Christmas, Christmas! I could shout that from the rooftops! Seriously. I love this time of year even more than my birthday! Anyway, today I just wanted to share a classic holiday outfit with you all. Nothing livens up a classic black midi skirt like a champagne sequined top and bold berry lip. It's a classy yet simple way to get easily glammed up for a holiday event! Also, I just have to say again that Rachel and I had so much fun creepin' around The Grand America for this shoot! It was so great and as far as photographers go I highly recommend her, so seriously, go follow her on IG and BOOK her!

Much love!
