Instagram Life #3

OOTD - My 'every day' makeup - My first Razzleberry Peace Tea!
Rompers are the best - #mylife - OOTD featuring my DIY American Flag shorts
I was going to die - The Beauty Crush in TIME (and subscribing to my Youtube!) - the prettiest cat we found a home for
My makeup from prom - cuddling - my new favorite necklace in two OOTDS!

I feel like a default to these posts every time life gets busy and hectic and I'm not sure what else to post, but there is always positive feedback, so I'm just going to keep doing it! Life has just been BOOM-BOOM-BOOM one thing right after the next lately, and it's not slowing down. Weddings, work, vacation, it's all just piling up! I'm sure you all can relate. Hopefully I'll have some time to breathe in the next couple days, and there will be a proper post soon. Ta-ta for now!

(I really need a different ending. I don't want to sound like Tigger)

What's On My iPhone? Tag

I saw someone that I really enjoy write this post on her blog and I thought "hmm, it's been a while since I've made a post about myself/lifestyle". I'm not entirely sure what the "questions" for this tag are, because even after some Internet sleuthing I still couldn't get a definitive list. Everyone just seems to be listing their apps, wallpaper, favorite things, etc. Therefor, I'm going to try to create some actual questions to keep this more organized.


1. Q. What is your wallpaper? 
A. Normally it would be of my boyfriend, but I couldn't help myself when I found this babushka pug. And she's gardening! Perfect for spring!

2. Q. What apps do you have organized into groups on your first page?
A. Utilities: Clock, Calculator, Compass, Voice Control, Stocks, and that silly passbook thing
Social Media: Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter (Unfollow), Vine, and Youtube
Photography: Instagram, PicCollage, PicFX, Aviary, Meme Generator, and Whitagram

3. Q. What's in your bottom bar?
A. Phone, Mail, Safari, and Music

4. Q. What are your most used apps on your front page?
A. Definitely Messaging (duh), Photos, Twitter, Instagram, Google Maps, and Couple (a messaging/photo sharing/calendar type app for couples that is especially great for long distance couples like Tyler and I).


5. Q. What apps do you have grouped on your second page?
A. Never Used: Videos and Reminders
Games: Minesweeper, TapOut, Fruit Ninja, Game Center, Falldown, TextTwist, Family Feud & Friends, Techno Kitten, Words with Friends, What's the Word, Ruzzle, and The Heist
Music: Pandora, iHeartRadio, Radio.com, and Spotify
Health: MyFitnessPal and Hydrate

6. Q. What are your most used apps on your second page?
Virtual Wallet (my bank's iPhone app), Pandora, Radio.com, and a couple of the games, I suppose. I used to be addicted to Family Feud and Ruzzle but those have kind of fallen off my radar lately.


7. Q. Where can we find you?
A. All over the place! I'll leave screenshots of my most used social media apps with my information before so you can feel free to like, subscribe, follow, or whatever the appropriate noun would be for that site :)

So thanks for reading this. I've been thinking about filming the "50 Random Things About Me" tag for Youtube since I haven't filmed ANY "get to know me" type of videos yet. Is that something anyone would be interested in? Let me know in the comment if you would be and also what your favorite apps are and how you organize them!

25 Facts About Me

Oh hi there :) This post was inspired by a couple of bloggers who have done the same thing recently, and I thought it would be an easy way to share my life outside of the fashutysphere (<--new word right there, I better patent that). 


1. I love the radio. I have 12 different programmed stations and rarely listen to my iPod in the car

2. I've literally watched every episode of "Friends". More than once

3. Harry Potter is my all time favorite series.

4. I own 71 OPI nail polishes

5. My time management skills are probably some of the worst you'll ever encounter.

6. I adore baseball, especially Cardinals baseball.

7. I went to a private school for 1st-8th grade.








7th grade, braces....tell me why this picture was ever taken, again?

8. I've never left the United States and have only been as far west as Kansas City, Missouri

9. I went on a school trip to Washington DC in 8th grade and to NYC my sophomore year of high school.

10. My feet and hands are constantly cold, but I refuse to wear socks and only own one pair of gloves.

11. My boyfriend and I live 250 miles away from each other.

This picture is just over a year and a half old now. Time really does fly! (now I sound like an old woman, haha)

12. I love watching wedding TV shows.

13. I'm transferring schools in the fall

14. I absolutely hate cherries and anything cherry scented or flavored (candy, chapstick, medicine, etc)

15. My hair is naturally curly (no perm required) and it's always been like this.

Barney sweater, chocolate cone..what more could I have asked for?

16. When I was a junior in high school, I chopped off all my hair and kept it short until the end of my senior yet, and now I'm still in the process of growing it all back out.

17. I didn't fly on a airplane until I was almost 18 years old.

18. I am 100% addicted to Twitter (my link is on the right if you want to follow!)

19. I kept a pacifier until I was almost 5 years old. 

20. I literally cannot remember any of my freshman year of high school except for the very last day, and I remember very little of my sophomore year.

Hahaha, sophomore year,  2009....classic.

21. I love love love babies, but they terrify me. I'm always afraid I'll permanently damage them or scar them for life.

22. Spongebob is my favorite cartoon, and Tyler and I regularly quote it to each other.

23. If I start eating Chips Ahoy cookies, I will literally eat an entire sleeve of them. I can't stop. They have to be the crunchy ones though, because the chewy kind are not as good.

24. I am a terrible worrier. 

25. This list was much much harder than I thought it would be.
