Hockey Is In Our Hearts

As I'm sure we all know, the NHL starts October 1st. And while not all of us like hockey (shame), I'm sure that most of us girls can at least appreciate the beautiful men that make up the National Hockey League. 

Tyler Seguin

Like come on. Is he not beautiful? Also he's a very talented hockey player who as of this summer plays for the Dallas Stars. 

Beau Bennett

Moral dilemma. This Pittsburgh Penguin is super cute and hilarious (via twitter), but again, he's a PITTSBURGH PENGUIN (I'm a Flyers fan, HATE the penguins). Hoping he gets traded soon!

Gabriel Landeskog

This Swedish gem is the captain of the Colorado Avalanche (youngest NHL captain EVER btw). Isn't he adorable? His twitter is also presh

David Rundblad

Isn't he cute? Currently he's #2 for the Phoenix Coyotes.

Patrick Kane

Kaner! He's a party boy… But he's also the MVP of the 2013 Stanley Cup Champs so that's not too shabby!

Brayden Schenn

Yay for the Broad Street Bullies! (Philadelphia Flyers)

Jonathan Toews

Talk about perfection. I love him so much it's probably not normal. Captain of the Stanley Cup Champs the Chicago Blackhawks, there is not a more dedicated player in the NHL. XOXO

You're welcome.

New Music!

"People haven't always been there for me but music always has."

- Taylor Swift

School has begun, so naturally that means new music. Here are my newest favorites.

In A Song - Hunter Hayes

I Will Be Found (Lost at Sea) - John Mayer

Roar - Katy Perry

Stay Awake - Ellie Goulding

Gravity - John Mayer

Royals - Lorde

Wildfire - John Mayer

Under Control - Ellie Goulding

Open Your Eyes - Andrew Belle

Dreaming With A Broken Heart - John Mayer

No I'm not obsessed with John Mayer… Why would you say that?

Emojis

If you were an emoji, who would you be? We glitter girls have been thinking about that recently. There's of course the princess emoji, which we think describes our life pretty accurately. The crying emoji also seems to make an appearance in our convos fairly often… oops. But we think the one emoji that epitomizes our life is this one.

Is she not fab? She basically does not give a fudge. No fudges given. I DON'T CARE I LOVE IT!

Happy Sunday!!

Hope you all are having a great day! So tomorrow is Monday… sigh. Here is some inspiration to hopefully get y'all through this upcoming week.

Words.

So I'm sure most of us have started school already, and I know for me this first week of school hasn't been the best. Here are some of my favorite quotes to make us all feel better! 

(Be warned this is a long post)

Julia's Fall Wishlist!

I love summer. I really do. Not having the stress of school and getting to go on vacations and hang out with your friends any day of the week is pretty fabulous. But if I'm being honest, my favorite season is fall. The weather is absolutely perfect. There are football games, the NHL season starts, and it's apple picking season! (Not to mention my birthday is in t minus 18 days and I'm TOO EXCITED!!!) Here's my wishlist for this season!

Southern Marsh Pompano Tee

I'm absolutely obsessed with Southern Marsh T-shirts. They are so cute and look super comfortable. The Bimini Green color is simply gorgeous!

Lululemon Wunder Under Pant

Who doesn't love Lululemon? Leggings, whether or not you agree that they're pants, are the most comfortable piece of clothing a girl can find. While they are fairly expensive, they are very well made and super soft!

I love love love the Ralph Lauren cable knit sweaters but I can't find a white one like this anywhere! The struggle is real…

Boysenberry Diamond Boatneck Tunic

Is this dress not gorgeous? I'm not sure if I could pull off this color combo but I think its perf!

Jack Wills Longford Quilted Jacket

This jacket is absolutely perfect for fall and cold football games.

Buckle Strap Riding Boots

Riding boots are life. Literally that's all I wear in the fall/winter…. Sorry not sorry.

Mint Hunter Rain Boots

If these aren't the cutest boots ever…. I'm obsessed. I got the orange Hunter Boots last winter and I love them, but I would kill for these.

Boot Socks

Obviously you can't wear boots without really cute boot socks.. Duh.

Baublebar Classic Script Metal Monogram

I'm obsessed with monograms. Obsessed. You can never have too many monogram necklaces.

Marley Lilly Monogrammed Satchel Duffel Bag

More monograms! This bag is perfect for sleepovers and weekend trips. 

PBteen Suite Sham

Absolutely in love with this. Ordered this in navy as an early birthday present and it's adorable. 

PBteen Quincy Scallop Duvet Cover

Also part of my birthday present, I love this duvet color. Because it's navy, it matches almost everything 

and brings the room together.

So what about y'all? What are you guys looking at for this fall?

October 1st

Just a friendly reminder that the NHL season STARTS OCTOBER 1ST!!!!!!! Obviously I'm beyond excited. The Chicago Blackhawks are coming off of a huge Stanley Cup win, and my boys the Philadelphia Flyers have (hopefully) gotten themselves together somewhat this offseason. The Blackhawks play the Capitals October 1st, and the Flyers play Toronto October 2nd. 

YAY HOCKEY!!!

Which team are you guys most excited to watch this season?

Back To School

So while going back to school is pretty gross, picking out cute school supplies is fun. Here are some essentials that I picked up for back to school.
(This is Juliaaaa just so ya know)

 Lilly Pulitzer Agendas are the absolute best. We've used the Lilly planners freshman and sophomore year and they've helped a ton with organizing our lives. Not only are they super cute, but they have your year, month, and week laid out perfectly so it's simple to lay out your social life as well as schoolwork. My planner is the Large Agenda in the print "True Navy Tusk in the Sun". Yay for elephants! 💗

 I've had a Macbook Pro for a few years now, but I've never found a case that I absolutely loved. I'm super excited about this one because it's adorable and (hopefully) will protect my laptop when I take it to super fun (sarcasm ladies) AP Latin study sessions at Barnes and Noble. This is the Vera Bradley Laptop Sleeve (for 15" laptops) in the print "Summer Cottage".

Binder covers!!! Cute binder covers honestly make class a whole lot more bearable. These are super easy to make, and there are tons of tutorials on Youtube. Most of the prints I used are Lilly Pulitzer, but you can use any picture or print you want.

It's Britney Betch

Miss Britney Spears has definitely had her ups and downs. But the queen of pop is still the epitome of fabulous (in our opinion at least). This is Julia, and Britney is my homegirl. (We were both born in Mississippi how cool is that???!!!???) But in all seriousness you can apply Britney's music to all parts of your life! If you're stuck in some sticky situations, here's some advice via the queen. 

Breakups

Breakups suck. Whether you're the dumper or the dumped (that's a word right?) the whole situation just really…. well, sucks. This is probably the most basic situation where girls jam their headphones in to make themselves feel better. Instead of going only to Taylor Swift (who is actually perf for breakups but a girls gotta have some variety), mix some of these songs in your "Getting Over _____" playlist. You're welcome. http://i.imgur.com/hW65m.gif 

1. Stronger - This is definitely a fav. If your ex was a total jerk and you're glad to be rid of him, this is a fab song to sing in the shower.

2. Everytime - This song is great to listen to if you want to feel really sad. It's basically about missing someone… So on second thought maybe this is a terrible breakup song.

3. Shattered Glass - The classic "you cheated on me and I'm fabulous so you're going to miss me" song.


New Love

Awww warm fuzzies. There's this guy. He's super hot and you really like him, but you're not together. Yet. Here are some possible anthems.

1. Drop Dead (Beautiful) - My personal favorite.

2. Radar - Do ya know you're on my radar?

3. Break The Ice - :)

It's Complicated

Facebook is right when they say that "it's complicated" is a valid relationship status (only in real life though don't make it your fb status because that reeks of desperation). 

1. Sometimes - This guy is totally precious, but you're not quite sure if you're ready. You just want to take it slooowwww.  

2. Toxic - You're totally into him, but you know he's not right for you.

3. …Baby One More Time - Does he love me? Does he love me not? (BTW fav Britney song ever)

It's Love

So this is sort of basic but if you're looking for a song that "epitomizes" your relationship here are a few options.

1. (You Drive Me) Crazy - But in a good way...

2. Thinkin' About You - This may or may not be pathetic but hey! You're in love!

3. I'm A Slave 4 U - This also may not be the healthiest song ever, but if the shoe fits, wear it!

Girl Power

If this is just an "I hate men" kind of day (and girl we all have those), Brit has got you covered. 

1. Womanizer - I know exactly who you are

2. Oops!… I Did It Again - Sorry I'm so fabulous :)

I'm a Bad Ass

Similar to Girl Power, these songs make you feel like a serious BA.

1. Circus -  There's only two types of people in the world!

2. Me Against the Music - You get in the zone girlfriend

3. Piece of Me - No but seriously you don't want a piece of me.

Yayyy for Britney! What are you all time favorites of hers?

Summer Reading

So it's August 10th, and school is right around the corner (*sobs*). So for 99% of us high school students who haven't already done our summer work, its probably time to start thinking about it. Summer work absolutely sucks. It's our school's attempt to suck at least some of the fun out of our summer (at least in our opinion). Groan. Enough about that, this is what we're reading instead. 

The Selection

If someone mixed The Hunger Games and The Bachelor and put it in the oven, this is what they would get. 35 girls all vying for the same guy equals for an interesting book.

Bewitching

Anyone remember Beastly? Written by the same author, Bewitching is a retelling of Cinderella.  

City of Lost Souls

This book is number 5 in the Mortal Instruments series. The movie version of the first book in the series, City of Bones, comes out August 21st and we're super excited because these books are dark and beautiful and we can't wait to see it on the big screen.

The Code

So I know what you're thinking. Hockey? Really? But I swear hockey, especially NHL hockey, is super fun and interesting to watch once you get into it. In the words of Ross Bernstein, "Once it [hockey] gets in your blood, it stays there for a very long time" (The Code). The Code is about the role of an enforcer in the game of hockey, and it sheds a whole new light on the game. This is the book that I (Julia) read at the beach... Cool girl problems.

Lauren Conrad Beauty

Okay so who doesn't want to look like Lauren Conrad? She's fabulous!

What about you guys? What are y'all reading instead of your required summer work?
