What are we celebrating?
Mesmerizing Magenta
When I was a little girl, my dad always asked me, “what’s your favorite color?” and I always answered the same, “I have two: pink and hot pink”. As I’ve gotten older, nothing has changed. There’s just something magical about the color pink that instantly brightens my...
Spring Break Edit: Cabo San Lucas
This past week, my friends and I traveled down to Cabo San Lucas to celebrate our senior spring break. Though I am thrilled to begin my engineering career next year, I sure am going to miss all of these wonderful breaks I get to enjoy at SMU! Since we stayed at a...
Dishique, C’est Chic
Growing up in South Alabama, I was raised to understand the importance of having the appropriate china for any occasion. Now that I am married and nesting in my own home, my love for tableware has only intensified. I am excited to spotlight one of my new favorite...
PS for GM: Chevy Volt

Out of the three cars my sisters and I tested for GM, I have to admit the Buick LaCrosse was my favorite. Though I had never considered the LaCrosse to be a luxury sedan, I was more than impressed by all of the features in the car. The interior of the car reminded me...
PS for GM: Buick Encore
When GM reached out to us to spend a week test driving cars for them, we were more than thrilled with the opportunity. We were each given a coupe, SUV, or electric car to use as our own and provide our personal feedback on the car. Since I normally drive a sedan,...
Two’s Company Trays
I’m always looking to find the perfect gift for my friends, and I’ve finally found my “go to” gift idea. Last year I was all about candles like this and this, but for 2014 I’ve turned to these precious trays from Two’s Company. The trays come in a variety colors and...
