Rainy Days

So, Hurricane Sandy is heading on up to the North tomorrow. Which means school is canceled for me! Even though I'm thrilled that I don't have to take my Management exam tomorrow, I'm not gonna be happy about having to stay in my dorm for a couple of days. However, for those who do decide to go out in the midst of a hurricane or rainy weather, here are my top choices on how to be prepared for the weather and still look cute at the same time:



Rainy Days


Monogramed Raincoat: Raincoats are really helpful when dealing with heavy weather. You don't have to worry about getting what you're wearing wet. Also, who doesn't love monograms?! Jazzing up a raincoat can definitely make it worth your while going into the rain. I have my Theta Phi Alpha raincoat that I wear all the time. They're nice and comfy and keep you warm too!

Cute Umbrella: Bubble umbrellas are a big fashion statement around my campus. While they might be a pain in the butt to carry about all the time, it is so worth it. They are big so it covers all of your body, plus you could fit a friend or two under them as well!

Leggings: One thing I hate about the rain, is when you're wearing jeans how soggy and heavy they get. Leggings are perfect for the rain because they're light and thin. I definitely recommend getting a cheap pair from a local store. It's ok if they get really wet because you can just hang them up and they'll dry particularly quickly.

Rainboots: I've become obsessed with rainboots recently. They're so fun, and when you get some with a cute pattern or color, it makes it even more fun to wear them. Hunter rain boots are a must for this season. I especially love this pair because the socks make the boots stand out.

I hope everyone stays safe these next couple of days! I know I'm ordering a ton of Chinese food tonight to last me until Tuesday!

What I Am Currently Saving Up For:

Hello all! I hope you all had a great weekend! Mine was very chill; I went to the mall with my pledge sister, watched movies last night with some sisters and my big, and all today I have been studying and doing homework! I have so much stuff due tomorrow- 18 credit semesters are never fun.

When I went to the mall, I was so tempted to buy many thing. Of course, I promised myself I wouldn't splurge on everything like I did last year- it was pretty bad. I am giving myself an allowance of how much I can spend per month. Hopefully it goes well! Here are some of the things I'm hoping to buy soon:



1. I am pretty boring when it comes to lip colors. I usually stick with nudes or pinks that are pretty neutral. However, I decided to be different on Fashion's Night Out and use my roommate's red lipstick. I was really hesitant at first, but I grew to love it! I love this lipstick because I didn't have to apply it once all night (I even ate a cupcake and it stayed perfectly!) and it didn't smudge at all.

2. Anyone who knows me well knows I'm a hardcore New York Giants fan. When they won the Super Bowl last February, I had never been so happy before. I love the new NFL line at PINK, especially this jersey! I'm hoping my dad gets tickets for me and him when they play the Falcons in ATL during Christmas Break!

3. I have become OBSESSED with the bubble umbrellas! This umbrella from Urban Outfitters if perfect for rainy days, and comes in adorable colors.

4. I love this new Lilly Pulitzer print. It has such great colors- and I love the elephants! I really hope to have this in my closet soon!

5. Chevron is my favorite print like ever. This dress from my favorite boutique has a few chevron patterned items, but this maxi dress is definitely my favorite!
