When it's freezing outside and I have to be up at 8 o'clock in the morning, the last thing on my mind is picking out something to wear. Leggins, sweatshirts and combat boots/Uggs is my outfit of choice. However, this semester has been jam-packed with events that force me to look like I put effort into my attire. More often than not, I go from class to work to my internship and then end the day with a full evening of executive board & committee meetings. (If you're thinking that I get no sleep...you're right.) Thus, I've gotten into the habit of picking out my clothes the night before. Unfortunately, I'm not the Carrie Bradshaw fashionista that I aspire to be so my outfits tend to be pretty plain Jane. Recently, however, I've resorted to fashion blogs to help me get my act together! So, below are some of my favorite fashion blogs (in no particular order) that I look to when I need a little closet inspiration.

I don't know about y'all but I absolutely love freebies! As a broke college student (I'm gonna own that title), anything free is welcome and taken happily. Even though Valentine's Day is pretty much a day for women to be spoiled, I can never resist a good deal! Surprisingly there are a lot of freebees this Valentine's weekend! Here are the ones that I'm most looking forward to :)

After a week full of stressful moments and frightening events, it's finally Friday! This weekend, I don't have too much planned so I'll be able to catch up on some school work, get rid of this stupid cold and actually get some rest for once. Even though I'm battling this cold and this week was really aggravating, the good news is that I got my photo shoot pictures back!

Today, I was thrust into a situation that I have never anticipated being in before. At around 1:20 PM, an armed individual entered one of the buildings on USC's campus. While the full story is unknown and the police are still searching for details, we do know that two people were killed in that building, one a professor of the University. The entire university was in a frenzy: calls to family members were made, live updates were streamed on everyone's laptops and the entire city of Columbia sat in anticipation. 

I am a worrier. I hate being unaware and uninformed. If something isn't going right (a.k.a my way), I get freaked out. Worrying is definitely one of the things that I told myself I would work on this year. Prime example: one of my classes is not only kicking my ass, it's serving it to me on a silver platter. Why oh why I ever thought that an upper-level linguistics class would be interesting is beyond me. In said class, I have an exam on Thursday. One might ask: "Shouldn't you be studying instead of worrying/blogging/Food Network watching?" Why yes, yes I should. But this is just how I am. I've come to terms with it - procrastinate, worry, study, matriculate, repeat.
