Which I got this cute idea from Joey at Hodge[s]podges.

 You always need a glass of ice water before you go to bed. 

You are obsessed with planners, but also get sick of them quickly and have to buy a new one. 

You are neurotic about organization and your closet is not only color coordinated but also coordinated my sleeve length. (hahah trueee it is)

You are horrible at surprises and have to look up endings to movies and books every time. 

(So true, I can't stand not knowing)

You get really anxious when you don't know the directions to where you are going. 

You are an amazing cook (haha thank you pinterest)

You like the house to be really clean all the time (hey you never know when company will come)

You bleach all your white clothes (He never used bleach before he met me)

You wake me up at night every time you have to use the bathroom (hahah I get scared)

You have a soft spot in your heart for old men and animals (he is talking really old, like old grandpas) 

You like your blog friends more than your real friends (haha sometimes this is so true)

How cute it he!! ♥

How to Sleep With A Movie Star by Kristin Harmel

 

" A contemporary tale of Cinderella-meets-Notting Hill in this tale of a regular woman who wakes up in bed with the hottest actor in the world. 26-year-old Claire Reilly is at the top of her game as one of the youngest celebrity senior editors in the business. At Mod magazine, she is a consummate professional, interviewing dreamy Hollywood hunks and staying on top of every story. Unfortunately, her live-in boyfriend seems intent on setting the world’s record for celibacy, yet she finds herself penning articles like, “Ten Reasons You Should Have a One-Night Stand.” When Claire lands the plum assignment of interviewing Cole Brannon, Hollywood’s #1 hottie, she knows better than to mix business with pleasure, but the next morning, she finds herself in Cole’s bed without her clothes. After the tabloids pick up the story, Claire’s life is turned upside down. In struggling to regain her reputation, she’ll learn a great deal about herself and that you shouldn’t always believe everything you read." Source.

Thoughts:

Loved loved love loveeee.

This was an easy read and such a good book. 

It was one of those books that made you wish so badly that I could be back in NYC and run into all the celebrities that I did. 

Now I never actually got to talk to any really. 

But I did get to see a lot and dream of having their babies or be their best friends!
I got through this book in like 3 days!
I give it an 9/10!

From Miss to Mrs: Part 5: Outdoor Pictures! (My Favorites)

♥

The outdoor picture were my absolute favorites!!

Yes it was raining, but only sprinkeling and we went to the same place as we had taken our engagement pictures 

(see tabs on my page for our engagment pictures)

 so we had a covering over us!!

Just starting and a little chilly from the rain!

This one is my personal favorite!

We have two sets of matching tattoos!

We got this same picture taken for our engagement photos!

While the groomsmen were taking pictures, I was trying to stay warm!

Very excited to be heading off to the ceremony!

This is just a sample of them, we have a ton more. They came out so beautifully and I love them. 

So perfect ♥

Erin Condren Life Planner

I was so excited to get home and see a pretty white purple and orange package waiting for me on the stairs when I got home!

I had been waiting for my life planner for about 2 weeks and was starting to get ancy!

I am obsessed with planners, being organized and pretty things. 

Quite the type A personality, I would say!

When I was in college I would go through planners like it was my job.

If I got sick of them, or they just weren't good enough for my obsessive needs. 

So when I came across Erin Condren's planners I thought hmm, maybe this is it.

Now yes they are pricey, but they are personalized for you. 

♥

I know I was really curious to see them before I bought them, so maybe this will be helpful for some of you who are thinking about buying one. 

It is perfect for me. The don't know with how organized I am if it would have been helpful in college because the areas inside are quite small, and I write books when writing down homework assignments and things like that, but it work perfectly now for work, keeping track of appointments and even for kids events in things like that!

It is pricey, but considering how much use I get out of it, and how much I love it, I think its worth it!!

This weeks book is:

Synopsis:

"Emmy is newly single, and not by choice. She was this close to the ring and the baby she’s wanted her whole life when her boyfriend left her for his twenty-three-year-old personal trainer—whose fees are paid by Emmy.

Leigh, a young star in the publishing business, is within striking distance of landing her dream job as senior editor and marrying her dream guy. And to top it all off, she has just purchased her dream apartment. Only when Leigh begins to edit the enfant terrible of

the literary world, the brilliant and brooding Jesse Chapman, does she start to notice some cracks in her perfect life…
Adriana is the drop-dead gorgeous daughter of a famous supermodel. She possesses the kind of feminine wiles made only in Brazil, and she never hesitates to use them. But she’s about to turn thirty and—as her mother keeps reminding her—she won’t have her pick of men forever. Everyone knows beauty is ephemeral and there’s always someone younger and prettier right around the corner. Suddenly she’s wondering…does Mother know best?
These three very different girls have been best friends for a decade in the greatest city on earth. As they

near thirty, they’re looking toward their future….but despite all they’ve earned—first class travel, career promotions, invites to all the right parties, and luxuries small and large—they’re not quite sure they like what they see…

One Saturday night at the Waverly Inn, Adriana and Emmy make a pact: within a single year, each will drastically change her life. Leigh watches from the sidelines, not making any promises, but she’ll soon discover she has the most to lose. Their friendship is forever, but everything else is on the table. Three best friends. Two resolutions. One year to pull it off." Source

Thoughts:

I thought this book was pretty good. Similar to the more well known the Devil Wears Prada. This one was more of a gossipy feel to it. A very easy read. Something I would bring to the beach or to take a bath. Not bad thought. 

I would give it a 7/10

Also I am linking up with Tara at Fabulous but Evil for :

This week I tried to do a 4th of July Inspired nail on something I saw on Pinterest. 

Mine didn't turn out as cool, but hey it was the first try. 

So it was suppose to be Splatter nails. 

Which you do by dipping a straw into nail polish and blowing it on your nails.

It turned out pretty cool, however, not like it was suppose to. 

I have heard a rumor that if you use coffee stirs straws it will come out better. 

I will try that next!!

Colors used:

Sephora: (white) A-Ha! Moment

Sinful colors: (Red) Satin Shoes

China Glaze: (Blue) Shower Together!!
