Beautiful revelations

There’s something out there that will tone your bum, put a healthy glow in your cheeks, a genuine smile on your face, give your hair a little wind-blown volume and finally, it just might give a brand new sunny attitude (a least for an hour or two)!
A product junkie admits: a long run around the lake can do much more than any bottle of expensive potion from Sephora can.
Are you for real?

Our bestie is what some people might call brutally honest but what we like to call just honest enough. Telling the truth is her specialty and being with her is like a breath of fresh air!
In a world full of so much artificiality, isn’t it nice to know that the people who are close to you are truly genuine in their actions and words?
We’re curious, how many times a day do you fake it? Smile at your freshman year RA and make forced conversation? Tell your lab partner you love her jacket that bears an eerie resemblance to your grandmother’s curtains? Ask a teammate about his weekend escapades when you would rather enjoy your grape-nuts in silence?
Well, we’re telling you right now, fakery is out, out, out! The next big thing is just being…real.
Are you as fake as these girls?
Words for your weekend

We just want to be friends with her!
“Everything inside me is made of sugar and flour and a little red wine – a lot of red wine.”
– Reese Witherspoon confesses to Elle on her lack of dieting concerns.
What a refreshing attitude from one of our favorite A-listers! We’re going out to dinner tonight and we’re not ordering a salad and ice water with lemon!
Wise words

Feeling frazzled?
Originally issued by the The British Government’s Ministry of Information during the spring of 1939 the poster was distributed throughout England. While war with Germany loomed on the horizon, the message from King George reminded the country that all measures were being taken to protect the country.
Our mama likes to remind us of this when we cal herl with the latest drama.
It’s good to remember when the paniced feeling is rising in your throat. Breathe in, breath out.

And we’ve stuck with our New Year’s resolution for nearly a month.
That means we’ve flossed our pearly whites every single day! Yes, we’re bragging, bragging, bragging…
Did you stick with your resolution?
Listen up!

“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you can appreciate when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust nobody but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so that better things can fall together.”
-Marilyn Monroe
How we say thank you

I’ve always approached friendships with a less is more attitude. That is to say, I value a few close friends I trust like Wikipedia rather than a mass of acquaintances who barely qualify in the ami-category.
This year especially I’m grateful for those girls who I’m blessed to call my friends.
They help me curl my hair on Saturday night, call me out when I’m being unfair, care about the Hills as much as I do, listen patiently to my whining over brunch, and make me laugh like no one else can…This list goes on and on.
But the bottom line is that I’m lucky to be surrounded by people who bring out the best in me.
Happy (belated) Thanksgiving!
The girls got it right!

...I'll be the princess.
We’re listening to Taylor Swift’s Love Story.
It makes us want to play pretend like a little girl…and dream about prince charming.
“Don’t be afraid we’ll make it out of this mess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes.”
Simplicity.

“If you always do what interests you, at least one person is pleased.”
-Katherine Hepburn
We wouldn’t tell you to skip class, abandon that desk in the library or quit your job at the dining hall…
But we hope you’re doing something you care about everyday, because that isn’t selfish, it just makes sense.
A moment of me-time today...
