• Chinese designer Guo Pei is blowing my mind. Check more out here.

• Since my mom can’t shop on her own for me, she lets me pick things out for myself, which pretty much rocks. While I won’t be getting any surprises from her (love love surprises, seriously, the bf had open boxes of delivered presents laying around that he hadn’t wrapped for weeks and I didn’t peek!) I do know that I’m getting clothes I’ve wanted for a long time in a few more weeks! Yay!
• My winter uniform has been established – semi-cropped grey cashmere sweater (actually the last surprise my mom could get me years ago), long tank (switching up with stripes, metallics and colors), skinnies, boots (flat or heeled), and a chunky necklace.

• I love Norwegian decor blog Design Shimmer, then Decor8 featured pics of the blogger’s gorgeous home. Click here for more pics!

• 2 super easy recipes I want to try SOON! coconut macaroons & ciabatta bread

• I finally switched birth control pills. I could not stand Loestrin 24 anymore. 2 pregnancy tests, wrecked nerves, insano mood swings (I was ready to knife a bitch)… to hell with that! The last pack I took, I went ahead and didn’t take the 4th week and I STILL didn’t have a period. That resulted in test #2. I keep seeing commercials saying how it’s “medically unnecessary” to have a period when you’re on the pill. Ya know what says it’s necessary? BIOLOGY that’s what. Sure, it’s a pain, it interferes with your sex life, etc, but omg do I like that little bit of reassurance that everything’s working like it’s supposed to and I’m not preggos. So, I’m now on good old-fashioned ($9 at Target) tri-sprintec and hopefully my mood swings and shot nerves will come to an end.
