Marvelous Monday! Boxers & Cookies &...the Heat?

“In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.” – Robert Frost

(one of my favorite quotes)

It's Marvelous, Miserable Monday! 

Which one are you feeling today?

I think I'm going to have to go with Marvelous.  I have just received news that my application has been reviewed and accepted, and I am officially the new Secretary of the American Red Cross Club at NYU! This is very exciting news for me...as I know you all know that I am absolutely in love with the Red Cross. Now it's my turn to brighten your days! 




  • This video makes me miss Luke so much, but also reminds me of how wonderful and sweet boxers are. Also, it'd probably be an amazing idea to let this music play while you read the rest of this post. 24 seconds in.....just....can't take it.




  • So it looks like I can't embed this video straight into the blog, but if you click on this link, you can watch this Febreze commercial that caught my attention. The wonderful featured family, who do not even realize that they are LITERALLY sniffing a garbage can is the Scott Family. How perfect. Gotta love the Scott's.

  • If you missed Baby Shakira yesterday, then you HAVE to see Baby Beyonce. This baby is male. I want my child to be this child. Best part is when he takes it to the floor. 



  • In honor of Ben Affleck's recent wins at basically every award show this season, I thought it was time to take a walk down memory lane with both Ben Affleck and his ex-lover/best friend Matt Damon. Remember when they did Good Will Hunting?! One of my favorites of all time. They were such babies. And so cute. And didn't even know what to do with themselves on the Red Carpet except talk to each other and laugh. If you want to see all of the adorable pictures of the two of them, click here



  • I've been going to my fair share of basketball games lately and one of my favorite teams is the Miami Heat. This could be because my brother goes to the University of Miami, or just because they made this Harlem Shake Video. I might just marry every one of these players. I LOVE THE HARLEM SHAKE. Thank you for letting me get that out. 


And last but not least, as I am running to a Fashion Business Association Meeting (and I am currently in leggings with my hair in a bun and no makeup on...thinking this isn't the best look for a group of trendy NYU-ers) here is another adorable picture of an unlikely love story.

Wednesday Wonders

It's a rainy day here in New York. I am tired. It is cold. I had an 8 am. That's what my mood is right now. But hopefully, I will be cheered up as I share with you my weekly internet finds.

First up:

Since it's raining out, I almost mindlessly started searching for rain boots. I thought these were very cute. I like the red. Are these even rain boots? I am delirious from this day.


Can we go back to Valentines Day? Where it was acceptable to eat an unnecessary amount of chocolate? I have no idea why Bed, Bath and Beyond had a soufflé recipe on their website...but I came across it and so I thought I'd share it with any people who were still missing the I'm-in-love-with-hot-melty-gooey-chocolate...and-I-don't-need-a-man-day.




If you haven't gotten a grip on my mood yet...pretty sure by this next carb-filled desire of my mine, you will. Who in their right mind wouldn't devour this Fettuccine with Tomato-Cream Sauce?


I'm sorry...is this thing real? Why don't I have one.


I don't think there is any amount of motivation strong enough to get me to the gym today...but I found this list of "10 Easy Ways to Sneak in a Workout" for all you hopefuls out there.


I couldn't stop laughing at this little boy pretending to talk on the phone like his mom and dad do. Pretty sure it's his mom by the way he randomly cackles and says things like "Alright". 




My friend, Morgan, posted this to her Facebook and it's just more of a reason to be obsessed with Beyonce. 



I have a problem with throwing out magazines..my favorites are Seventeen, Cosmopolitan and Fitness. I think I need one of these beautiful racks




I am so amazed at this artist,  Takahiro Iwasaki, who makes these tiny little sculptures out of wires and thread and other insane materials. Check out this page of all his creations!



One last thing to make you laugh...I can't help the fact that I love pranks like this. Have a great rest of your Wednesday!
