Style you Sunday: spring break- beach

My friend is lucky enough to be heading to Mexico in 2 weeks for spring break- well she will relive the spring break glory days, since we have graduated college, lol. Can you say jealous? :)

At any rate, she asked me to find some cute outfits for her trip, and this bathing suit she chose was the starting point for her day outfit. Add in pina colada, cabana boy, a good book, & a beach chair... and she's good to go!

Stay tuned next week for a spring break night look!

Going back to the Cuse?

This weekend I'm going back to Syracuse for the weekend (Hopefully! The snowstorm is making plans a bit shaky...) to celebrate Amanda's 25th bday, try go to the big basketball game this weekend, eat all our fave foods, and pretend we're back in college.

I haven't been back to Cuse in over 2 years- since Homecoming fall 2007 (I graduated in the spring that year). While I am so excited to relive the glory days, I could do without the 4+ hours car ride and standard 12 inches of snow on the ground. Luckily road trip music and my Uggs will solve those. :)

Here are some pics to share some of me at the Cuse, 2003-2007.

With my freshman year roommate- at the Dome freshman year, fall 2003.

With my now roomie- sophomore year, fall 2004.

First sorority formal- sophomore year, spring 2005.

The start of junior year- fall 2005.

First night back to campus- as seniors, Aug 2006.

Sorority seniors at pref night- spring 2007.

Graduation pics- May 2007.

Jenny Penny and me back for homecoming- October 2007.

Lots of pics to come next week from our trip this weekend...

fingers crossed the weather doesn't stop us!

I want to be there, be her.

I cannot help but swoon over the ads for Michael Kors each season, and the S/S 2010 ads are no exception.

The lighting, her smile, chic clothes, hot man... an aura that just exudes from her, how can I not want her life!? MK certainly understands how to make me want to buy his products. I just want to jump into my magazine and stroll off into the sunset...
