Saturday I attended Seattle Fashion Week for the first time with part of the Girl Power Hour Power Team… we got all gussied up and hit the town in bright, springtime dresses. I felt like a princess, not only were we given front row VIP tickets, but Vera Wang was showing her Spring and Fall 2010 line at the show (her first time ever in Seattle!)
I’ve never been to a legit fashion show before,... 
Are my new obsession.
I bought one last weekend for $25, and it’s quickly becoming my favorite thing in my wardrobe. I usually wear a printed, silky top or detailed tank underneath and pair it with skinny jeans and heels for a night out, or boots for work. It’ll also be a great, lightweight summer jacket for heading out on the town in shorts and heels or a summer dress (can’t... 
“I wish I had style”
That’s what my best friend said when I showed her my totally awesome new wall decal for the living room (I previously had a terrible, cheap IKEA frame with generic IKEA flower postcard images in it that I was just dying to upgrade).
What I say to that – Woman! This doesn’t take style. This just take entering your card number in on the worldwide Interwebs.... 
This weekend, I…
…Bought one of those skirts that can be found in droves at Nordstrom and every other store. Basically, you throw them over a tucked in T-shirt or blouse, and wear it with leggings and boots. I’m in love and want to head back and buy 14 more of them.
…Hit up the newish Blush Lounge for happy hour with some girls. The entire place was a bit dead, but their $3 and $4... 
As most of you know, I’m in a LTR. If you’re like me, and you had no idea what that little acronym meant until about a year ago, I’ll let you in on the little secret – it’s Long Term Relationship. (Woowee. How exciting!) I’ve been in my LTR for nearly two years now. EEEKK. Really, that just scares the bejesus out of me. Am I the only one who feels like their life is... 
Friday night, I had the pleasure of finding myself on the “VIP” list of a new lounge opening in Belltown, which, for those who are Seattle outsiders, is the swanky bar scene part of Seattle. It’s the singles place to see and be seen, peruse the merchandise, hit on and perhaps take someone home. I am, of course, not single – but it’s always fun to get dressed up and go out on... 
Oh online shopping, how you continue to tempt me. I was once again lured by Etsy. So far, I’ve only made three actual purchases, but they have been oh so lovely, fabulously girly finds. Yet another blogger snagged me with her mention of a cute Etsy shop that sells wall decals. I am sort of a sucker for wall decals (my last apartment had a “Live.Laugh.Love” decal that the BF gave me for... 
I found these genius Reduce® WaterWeek water bottles at Metropolitan Market a year or so ago and bought them for a coworker’s birthday (they’re only $20 for the set). I finally purchased a set for myself last week, and I love, love, LOVE them! They are cute little reusable bottles that have their own tray for the fridge. It’s awesome because I now always have a water bottle on hand... 
So, the weekend was totally fab and low-key. I’ll spare a big long, boring update with name dropping of people you don’t know (don’t you hate it when bloggers do that) and just give you the highlights, in non bullet format.
First off, the weather is Seattle is so fantastically f*cking fantastic; it’s ridiculous. Usually it rains the better part of June, but it’s been in the 70s minimum for 10... 
This week I’ve been nothing short of extremely frazzled.
See, I had a huge presentation yesterday that I’ve been up late every night and up early every morning, working on it, practicing it, losing sleep over anxiety and adrenaline, counting down the moments until 1 p.m. on Wednesday.
I have this HUGE fear of public speaking. It freakin’ sucks. And it’s super bizarre cause I am.not.shy – most...
