Greetings from London! My bff, Katie, moved to London, so I obviously had to come visit her. So far we have only been here a day, but we have accomplished so much. A quick rundown of the last 24 hours: Landed at Heathrow, went to Camden Market, had a real British tea at Fortnum & Mason (I consumed wayyy too many scones with clotted cream), quick pit stop at Liberty London, had a pint at The Holly Bush in Hampstead Heath…and then, that brings us to dinner at Byron –
Alyse Mason Brill Position / Job title?: Founder, Fit Approach Founder, SweatGuru 1) When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? So many things! I wanted to be a veterinarian until the first time I saw our vet take my cat’s temperature – that was a real deal breaker for me. After that, I wanted to be a teacher, a writer, and
In 2010, Carol Han and Alexandra Weiss took the ultimate plunge: they left their cushy fashion jobs to start CA Creative, an agency focused on growing brand identity and business by maintaining attention in digital spaces. Before they decided to go off on their own, Carol worked for Elle and StyleCaster, while Alex was at Ralph Lauren. With their combined years of editorial and fashion experience, they felt like should combine forces to provide brands with innovative content and cool social media strategies. While the I get some nifty tips from my fellow fashion bloggers. I was recently reading Goodwillista, and she mentioned that she found some good costume necklaces on eBay. I thought this was a really good idea because I have been on the hunt for the perfect necklace, but didn’t really want to spend tons on it. Low and behold, eBay proved to be a goldmine! I found so many good necklace, and they were all under $10. Last week was pretty gloomy here in Austin, and I honestly didn’t feel like getting dressed at all. To cheer myself up, I can wholeheartedly say that everything in my life is better when it is sunny and warm outside. I was going through some pictures I took last week versus some I took this morning (it is rainy and cold today), and I just look so much better in the sun! I guess everyone does. Maybe I look more awkward in the cold weather pics because I am rushing to get back inside. Anyways, since it is supposed to be cold (I know, I shouldn’t complain because it is WAY colder elsewhere) for the next few days, I decided to post Yes, this is another “Dear Diary” type post. Yes, I have become a typical gen-y female whining constantly about her love life (or lack there of). Yes, I know it is extremely annoying. Yes, I know, I am probably the reason I am still single. Okay, I have to do a blog post about my date, so I can get it off my chest, and move on with my day. After taking a major break from online dating, I decided to re-activate my OkCupid profile a few weeks ago. So last night, I met up with a fellow that I
Full name?: Kelly Holt Position / Job title?: Founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Austin Phoenix 1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Wait, which part of my childhood does this refer to exactly? Could it be the time when I wanted to be the founder of an environmental advocacy organization (to save the neighborhood trees), or I don’t know if you are like me, but when it is actually time to eat, I can never think of anywhere to go. I like to post these restaurant reviews on Friday…just in case you need somewhere new to try this weekend. A few weeks ago, we tried Xian Sushi and Noodle, after reading a review in the local newspaper. I love noodles of any kind, and this place claims to be Austin’s “first hand pulled noodle bar”, so I definitely wanted to check it out. ADDRESS: 1801 E 51 St Bldg C 370 Austin, TX 78723 Since I have been trying to save money, I haven’t been shopping in the typical sense. However, I have been shopping in my closet. Meaning, I have been pulling things out that I haven’t worn in years, and trying to re-purpose them into new outfits. This dress is one of those things; I can’t even remember the last time I wore it.
I was pretty excited when I received an e-mail about financial columnist, Kimberly Palmer’s new book, The Economy of You: Discover Your Inner Entrepreneur and Recession-Proof Your Life. As soon as I saw it, I knew I needed to get in touch to see if she could share her wisdom with us! Her whole book is about turning your hobbies (or entrepreneurial side gigs) into income making machines. This is probably the |
