This is the way I live


Dorm Tour in Photos

This is my desk. The first level has my calendar, my first semester schedule, my jewelry box with a mirror, tissues, a desk organizer, two mason jars (one with jewels and a fabric flower and another with coins), my lamp and iHome. The second level has my box of nail polish, sunglasses, a floral container for my cotton balls, a set of drawers for my hair ties and clips and medicine, make up bag and emergency togo bag, and candy bowl. The top level has paper towels, lysol wipes, air freshener, a fabric box full of toiletries, and bath and body works loveliness.


This is my bed area, excuse the wrinkles. 

This is what my room looks like when you first walk in .

This is underneath my bed, there's two storage bins and then my storage ottoman.

This is behind my bed, I have my laundry bag and my bookbag.


This is my wall, I want to add some more stuff. The poster has all of my favorite artists on it.

Cause we like to party ay ay


First College Party Experience
Hey guys! So this past Saturday I went to my first college party experience. I was interesting to say the least haha. I go to a school that is pretty much known for it's parties so everyone goes out all the time. I went out Friday night as well but the group I was with was unsuccessful with actually going into a party. So last night I went with a group of about 8 girls and we walked down a couple of the streets of campus. People were everywhere and there were a lot of parties, but us being inexperienced freshmen, we did not know how to approach them. The first house we went into was disturbing. There were a couple guys and some girls who were being straight up nasty so we immediately left. Then we walked around for about another hour and finally found one that seemed good. This one had a wannabe bouncer outside who said that if guys wanted to come in they had to have a girl with them. So this random kid asked me to go in with him and I said sure. So we got in and went upstairs. It was insane. The place was packed and hot and the music was so loud.  But it was great. I danced with a few guys, and after about 45 minutes we left and headed back to campus. So based off of last night I have a couple tips for you all (keep in mind that I've only been out twice so I am in no way an expert)

-Go with a group of no more than 6. Our group last night was fun but it was hard for us to stay together and not all of us even got into the party.

-Wear appropriate clothing. I honestly didn't think we were even going to get into a party so I just wore the shorts, tank and cardigan that I had worn that day. I go to school up north so it gets pretty cold at night. I'd definitely recommend leggings as a solution to that dilemma.

-If something seems sketchy, don't feel pressured to stay. Period.

-You already know the classic "watch your drink, don't take drinks from others"

-HAVE FUN! You'll never have moments like these ever again. Enjoy just being out and alive.

Fall Fashion Pickups

fall essentials

Fall is a pretty cool time of the year at least for those of us in school still. It's like new years without it actually being a new calendar year. A fresh start, a second chance, the list of cliches could go on and on. My favorite part of fall is acquiring a new wardrobe. The above collage showcases some of the items on my personal wishlist. Cutout boots are huge for fall and I cannot wait until I get a pair. Beanies, a functional backpack and a watch are fabulous pickups for college students. If you are going to school somewhere cold like moi, a thick coat is a necessity. I'm considering investing in a parka/anorak style.

Dorm Room Inspiration

Hey guys! I know for the past year I've been completely MIA and barely posting. I've decided to revamp my blog as a college lifestyle/fashion blog instead of a fashion/culture blog. I will be starting school in less than 2 weeks so I am very excited to start this new chapter in my life. I hope you all will stick around for the ride. 

Below are some dorms that I've pinned over the summer as inspiration for my dorm. If you're starting college soon maybe these pictures will inspire you as well!
