This ‘n That

This past weekend was my sorority’s State Day and I actually got to go!! WOOHOO!! I went to the very first one five years ago and since then it has always fallen on a weekend I had to work and I couldn’t get off for it so I was super pumped to be able to attend this one! I love seeing my sisters…catching up with the girls I was in with and meeting all of the new girls. Going always makes me want to get super involved again and I truly wish I had the time to. Why does life have to be so busy? UGH.

My sister Zayna came up Friday night and stayed with me…fun fact- we pledged together 15 years ago this fall. Fall ’02 represent!! No, it doesn’t feel like it was that long ago. Yes, we really are that old. HA!

I also got to see my sister Haley!! I haven’t seen Haley in a few years, we have both moves around quite a bit, but she is seriously the BEST and I am so glad I got to see her!!!

After State Day I went shopping with Zayna and totally took advantage of the Lane Bryant dressing room while she was trying on clothes…HA!! #LaneStyle y’all!!

And in case you were wondering the pink loafers are Uggs (super comfy), the floral kimono is from a boutique last year (no longer available, similar here and here), jeans are Lane Bryant (I roll mine up) and striped tank is Lane Bryant!

I also went and got my eyebrows tinted and shaped the night before State Day. I go to Just Blow – A Blowout Bar in Little Rock and I love it. I always thought people were silly for getting their brows tined but I totally get it now!! I didn’t fill my brows in that morning (I had to work that day) and I thought I looked naked without it!! I felt super weird and people kept asking me what I did different that day so trust me when I say brows do make a difference!!! Top is before (obviously) and bottom is after.

In other news I got a new car! Totally unplanned, nothing happened to my old one, it was just time. I will tell you all about it later this week but I love my new ride!!

In other beauty news, one of my friends sent me a ton of LimeLight samples and I can’t wait to try them all. Haven’t heard of Limelight yet? No fear, I have a whole blog post planned for next week!!

I guess that’s it for this super random post, HA!!!

What have you been up to lately??
Were you in a sorority??

    What a fun weekend. It seems after we graduate college for a few years, we get caught up with life. Glad you were able to meet up with sisters!

    You take the best selfies! I also need you to be my personal stylist. I’m plus size (as you know, lol), but my wardrobe is severely lacking in things that make me feel lovely or fun. My mom says I’ve become frumpy. O_O

      Thank you!! I think we all hit that “frumpy feeling” stage at one point or another. It’s hard to work through but when you do getting dressed is so much more fun!!
