Okay, I was pretty excited when Old Navy sent me these Coated-Wash Super Skinny Jeans. They are awesome, and in the last 2 weeks or so, I have worn them at least 5 times. I feel like they add a little bit of edge to any outfit. The first time I wore them was on a random adventure into the country. Okay, it isn’t really the country because we were still in Austin, but with all the Fall foliage, I felt like I was miles away from the city. OUTFIT 1:
Sheena has always been ambitious: she entered college at the age of 14, and I have been in the process of decorating my new apartment. I am determined to not buy anything from Ikea! I want to actually take the time to find unique, cool pieces. I have been spending an obscene amount of time scouring Craigslist, going to all my favorite vintage/thrift stores and browsing Etsy. I realized that if you ever want to sell something for way more than it is actually worth, just say it is vintage. So annoying. Luckily, a few months ago, I stumbled upon Thrifty Chicks Vintage, and ever since it has been one of my I am not a big drinker. In fact, I rarely have any type of alcohol. I don’t really have a reason for why. It is just as I get older, I have just become really lame. Not to mention, hangovers at 26 are beyond brutal. However, I made a rule for myself that I have to get drunk once every 6-8 weeks because, look, I am not 90. I am still young, and let’s be real: the crazy nights that you reminisce about about with friends for years usually involve some alcohol. The point of that whole spiel was to Um, yeah it is cold in Austin right now; the high today is only 39 degrees! Okay, I know I am a wuss because if you live somewhere like Minnesota or Iowa, this is nothing. For Texas, it is cold! And, during the winter, we don’t always think about what the harsh weather does to our hair! It can be brutal! Luckily, beauty & style expert, Tai Beauchamp, gave us the inside scoop on easy ways to keep your hair healthy and looking fabulous this winter season: Tip 1: Frizz-Free in the Frost Whether your hair is relaxed Yesterday, my friend posted a BuzzFeed article on my Facebook wall: “26 Problems Only Anxious People Will Understand“. I can basically relate to everything on this list, which is sad. My anxiety has been especially high over the past week because I finally moved into a real adult apartment. Yes, I upgraded from my tiny studio to a one bedroom. I know, I am movin’ on up in the world. While I am totally obsessed with my new apt, it is a bit stressful because I still have boxes everywhere, and I feel like my whole life is We all want to be awesome at our careers. In order to do that, we have to stand out, get ahead of the change curve, and stay relevant, by going far beyond our job description. Jesse Sostrin, author of Beyond the Job Description: How Managers and Employees Can Meet the True Demands of the Job, believes that to go beyond our job description we have to get around, what he calls, the hidden curriculum of work, which are things such as: the need for continuous learning and performance and the presence of performance barriers. When we This is a shout out to all of the shorties out there! Finally, a celebration and ode to the vertically challenged – Becky Murphy’s new book “I’d Rather be Short” shares the overlooked advantages of a small stature. Ahem–I’m actually of average height (and probably average in every sense of the word), but I thought of the perfect person to review this book for y’all. My cousin, Monica Castro. She’s older than me and I’ve been taller than her for most of our lives. She’s probably endured just about every short joke there is…maaaaybe even a few from me. About a week ago, I felt myself coming down with a cold. Of course my first thought was “Oh well, I guess I need to take a break from running!”…as though I had actually been running regularly. Think again. I hadn’t been running because I strained my knee. When it was finally better, I was “conveniently” needed another week of rest This is the challenge, people. Getting over excuses and making yourself workout! And boy is it a challenge! I decided to actually do some research to see if it was okay to run with a looming cold. I found Another shopping center, another fantastic restaurant. It is an on going theme in Austin. O’Daku Sushi is my go-to sushi spot; I am pretty sure I have taken everyone I know there. At this point, I have been so many times that I have ordered the majority of the menu, and everything rocks. This is a bold statement, but O’Daku is probably my favorite sushi place of all time. Cherin Sushi (another one of my favs) in the East Village is the only place that really compares. NAME: O’Daku Sushi ADDRESS: 2501 W Parmer Ln Austin, |
