Social Media Conference

Just wanted to pop by and say Happy Friday to you all! I can't believe it's basically already October! I have been super de dooperly busy lately with work and such! Yesterday I went to an awesome Social Media Conference in NYC for work! Business Insider hosted the event and I must say, it was amazing! I learned SO much good stuff about social media and such I don't think I stopped writing down notes once! *hence why my hand felt like it was dead*

I left the house at 6:30, but in true Jersey/NYC fashion it took us 2 1/2 hours to go about 20 miles from my house to the destination of the event. NOT fun!

The conference was awesome! Amazing speakers from Gilt Groupe, Pepsi, EA Games, (RED), Ford, Quaker Oats & SO many more! It was a long day for sure. But, in the end it was awesome and I learned a ton! Not to mention got some vino and had fabulous views of the East River! Can't complain!

Happy Friday, hope you have a faboooosh weekend! xo

What I'm Loving Wednesday

May Books
Recently these May Books have blown up my IG and Twitter feed! I of course had to check the site out and I was in awe! They have the cutest planners ever! I am currently in the process of trying to decide what print I love the most and want to order! They are super cute and preptastic personalized planners! Not to mention they’re only 20$ each! Holler! Check em out here!



E.l.f Cosmetics
I have always known about ELF and have gotten their products a while ago but I happened to be at Target in the beauty section and picked up some of their stuff! I came across their newest line (at least I think so) with cool snakeskin prints and I picked up these 2 nail polish colors which are perfect for the fall! I was super surprised how nice they look and how well they stayed on! For only $2 a bottle I for sure need to hit them up again!



Seche Vitte



This is the mother of all top coats! You need to run out and buy this! No jokeee! Within seconds of applying this, your nails are dry and super shiny! I got it for about $10 at Target and it’s SO worth it!

SkinnyGirl White Peach Sangria

I have always been a huge SG fan and recently I discovered the Peach sangria. This shiz is amaze!! I am obsessed! It is beyond delish! You deff need to check it out, you’ll thank me!



Fall TV Shows

I am SO thankful and excited for all my shows to return to tv. I barely have time to watch tv these days but when I do I feel like there is never anything on! I can’t wait for Gossip Girl to come back (let’s not talk about my depression from it being the last season, ever.). I can’t wait for Revenge to return because it’s like the best show ever! If you haven’t watched – you NEED to! Homeland will be returning as well on Showtime. I am yet again obsessed with this show and can’t wait for its return!



Hope you all had a fabulous Wednesday!

Cheers to being halfway to the long, holiday weekend!

Living la vida loca..

For realz! I feel like I have ZERO time these days to do anything, let alone blog! I am going to make a solid effort to update on the reg! *pinky promise*

Let’s talk weekend recap!

This weekend was a ton of fun and relaxing (say whaaaa? I usually don’t ever “relax”)
I spent the weekend down the shore at my boyfriend’s house and then my beach casa with my bf and bestie boo!

Friday night we tried to watch Project X but I (as per the ushhh) passed out probably 10 minutes into it!
Saturday we headed up to my beach casa and spent the day at the beach at the beach club with my cousins and famila!





At night we got all dolled up and ready to go out (complete with ridiculous pictures, obviously) and ended up staying in because we were so exhausted #fail.



Sunday was another beautiful day and my bestie and I spent it at our beach club soaking up the rays!





I am really going to miss summer!



How was everyone’s weekend? Hope you had an awesome Monday!!

Call to the world...

SPICE UP YOUR LIFE!

I can't even believe that the spice girls were part of the closing ceremony at the Olympics.



I mean COME ON!!! Took me back to 3rd grade dancing around and screaming their songs on the reg!



I swear I was convinced one day I too would be a Spice girl! le sighhh



I will forever love these girls. *especially Emma, I was always a Baby Spice lover!*



GIRL POWER!

Happy Sunday!

Weekend Recap!

Linking up with these lovely ladies for the first time for the Weekend Recap Blog Hop!



****

This weekend was lovely! After work on Friday I loaded up on Starbucks and hit the road and headed down the shore (Jersey lingo for going down to the Jersey Shore/Beach).





Went to the boyf's house and we got ready and hit up Seaside with some of our friends!





We went to Beach Bar (that's actually the name, and it happens to be a bar on the beach - coincidence? ;P )
I had me my usual, vodka + club with a lemon!




Saturday we headed up to my beach house and my bestie boo came down! We spent the day out on the boat on the river.



There is nothing like being out on the water.




A lil Mike's Hard Lemonade to keep us from being parched! ;)



Got my tan on like woah.



Then we went to a firemen's appreciation baseball game which was oodles of fun! (LOVES men in baseball pants, yuuuuuum)



Spent the day relaxing by the pool at the boyf's house



This misting concoction was like beyond amaze. Kept us nice and cool while laying out tanning because it was beyond HOT out!






Walked on a lil sunshine! ;)



Went to a lovely dinner at a restaurant right on the river!



Yum!



My cutie pie!



Beautiful end to an amazing weekend!



Hope you all had a fabulous weekend as well!

I have a 5 day weekend this week so tomorrow night my tushy will be back down the shore soaking up the sun and celebrating my favsie holiday - 4th of July!!

CMT Awards Recap

If it weren't for Twitter I totally would have forgotten that last night were the CMT awards! I am so happy I got to watch because I really think this is one of the best award shows out there! Everyone is there for the music and it seems much more genuine then other award shows.

*warning picture overload*

Anywho, country music is filled with good looking gals and guys and here is some of the fashions that were spotted last night on the show!


I don't know if you have heard of the Pistol Annie's but it is Miranda Lamberts band and let me tell you they are some sassy, fun and rebellious girls! I have really fallen in love with their music as well as their image! Nothing like a buncha girls singing about all the things you wish you could say.



I can't even get over Lauren Allaina these days. She looks SO different from her days on Idol & I'm still trying to decide whether or not thats a good thing. Seems as though she lost her innocence and down to earth image. What do you think?



It seems like sequins and sparkle were a major theme throughout the night. Everyone seemed to be rocking them in some way or another! (i'm not complaining, I loves me some sparkle!!) Sarah Evans rocked this sequin look.



Jordin Sparks clearly didn't get the sparkle memo and wore a simpler look.



Kristin Bell was a co-host with Toby Keith and I thought she was pretty hilarious (they both were). These were two of the looks she wore throughout the show





Kellie Pickler rocking a pink look!



Lady A all together!




MY GIRL, Carrie <3 She was looking beautiful as ever with her adorbz hubby! They are seriously too adorable together. And I can't even with her legs! Someone make mine look like that. Ugh perfection as always!









And this hunk of burning love *swoooon* Luke Bryan looking hot as ever singing his song Drunk on You was just fab! He gave his guitar away to a girl in the audience and I realllly wish it was me. le sighh







I had never heard of this band Little Big Town but I loved their performance, it was super fun and the perfect summer song!




Total photo overload but SO worth it! What look did you love!?

xo,
