GNI- Girls Night In

Let's face it, from time to time us girls can use a girls night in. Now don't get me wrong, I love a good girls night out but most of the time I'd rather stay in with my girlfriends and watch some really good movies. Of course that, and some food that's no good for us will definitely do the trick! There could be a reason for the GNI; a fight with a bf, broke up with your bf, stress, something you wanted didn't go your way, or whatever it may be. Either way, call your best girl friends and have a nice night enjoying each others company while stuffing your faces! I love my girls, I honestly got blessed with them. When I'm in town, we do these girls nights quite often. We usually end up talking about our problems, talking about boys, or school, we might (guiltily) stalk some of our ex's. Now, let's get into some of the things you should or could do at a GNI! First, you're gonna need all your favorite junk food that's for sure! Then, grab your favorite romantic comedies (I'll list mine below). While you're watching these movies you could easily paint your nails, do each other's makeup (I promise girls do this for no reason) or even make at home face masks and wear them while you laugh your asses off at Bridesmaids. You even can make a few DIY projects (pinterest is your go to). Or if you and your friends are into the same TV shows you can just catch up on recent episodes thru Netflix or Hulu. Whatever it is that you and your friends may be into, never miss the opportunity for a good girls night in. Your friends are a big part of who you are, so take the time to catch up and do all your favorite activities together. Never forget to appreciate those moments you have with them. Trust me, one day you'll be telling your children about the time you laughed your butt off with your best friend and that one day you hope they find some forever friends like you did.



Now here are some of MY favorite Romantic Comedies:



 



I promise I could name a billion more but these are some of my top favorites. So if you happen to watch any of these for the first time let me know which one is your favorite or just what you think of it!

Until next time, xoxo

Let's Start Over

Well hello there! It's been a hot minute since my last post, just four months shy of a year. Man has a lot happened since the last time I've been on here writing. Not going to lie, I miss posting on my blog. I get to write everything I'm thinking, into, or wearing, and just put it out there for the world to read and let it all be released. But since it's been a while I'll slowly fill you in on what's happened since my last outfit of the day. As I look back on older post I realized I never really talked about my life in depth. But I recall writing plenty of drafts that never saw the published light of day on my page. I guess I just felt like my life was too boring but my interest were more fascinating, at least to me. So I jumped straight into what I was wearing as my first few blog post. Don't worry, an in depth post about myself is coming, I'm more just trying to find the right words to make myself seem more interesting than I feel I really am. But for now, we'll stick with a nice catch up post of over the last 9 months.

If I had to sum up how 2015 has been so far, I'd definitely say it's been a string of up's and down's. This year pretty much put me to the test of who I am as a person and the things/people I put value on. This test for sure hasn't been easy, but I'm thankful for it because I got to weed out a lot of unnecessary things in my life. First, was people, then old habits of how I dealt with certain situations. Not only did I see the true colors of those around me but also some true colors in myself. So the shorten version of that, some people had to go. I also lost a very special someone. They were taken away from my family way to soon and unexpected. But I'm slowly adjusting to life without them. Losing someone so close to you can hurt like hell, I've learned from experience and apparently so did a lot of people I care about. Not only did I lose one of the most important women in my life, I had a few friends lose some pretty incredible people as well. So if you're reading this and you've lost someone, I feel and understand your pain. I know those thoughts that run thru your head, or those overwhelming emotions that can't help but take over. I get it, I get it all. But what helped me thru it all was the amazing support system I have. It's not a big one but it's more than enough for me. I guess it's cause I realized I wasn't the only one going thru it. Knowing I wasn't alone brought a sense of comfort. It also really bonded a lot of my family. Now moving on, I hit some educational speed bumps along the way too. So for those in college and it's taking a little bit for you to get on your feet getting your degree, I FEEL YA TOO! Some words of encouragement, you'll get there. It may not be when or how you pictured it but eventually you will.

As this year is coming to a quick end, I PROMISE to post more. Like I said, I miss blogging and I really want to get back into it. I'm going to be traveling a little bit more so I can't wait to write about that. Plus, some really exciting things are going to be happening for some real special people and I can't wait to witness and be apart of it. Thank you for reading my ridiculously long post and check back within the next week for some new content.
