Frolic in the Sun

With Spring Break and Summer right around the corner *yay summer!* I thought it was about time to share some of the swimsuits I've been eying and pining over.

Would you dare?
I know the tan lines would be RIDICULOUS but I can't help but think this is so pretty!
 
Retro Dream
I seriously want this swimsuit. I die.


Ruffles AND Polka-Dots!
I have this swimsuit and I love it!

I also have this swimsuit from American Apparel and I'm obsessed with it.

I wish it were summer right now!

Have a fun weekend!

Hey readers! What are your plans for this weekend? I think Miss Heather and I are ready for a low-key weekend at home. It's been a crazy couple of weeks!

Here are some posts from around the web to entertain you while lounging around. 

Trip to Paris anyone?

Have you heard this song? It's lovely.

I found this video via Rockstar Diaries and it's illustrating the wonderful world of Kate Spade NY. Which, is my mom's style icon in case you were wondering....It's so magical!

Our friend, Ellen, made this hilarious list of "Lessons I Learned Over Heather's Birthday Weekend".
 1) A beret is an important item to pack on any trip. *Forget being able to see, that isn't important at all.* 
(Ellen forgot her glasses/contacts but managed to pack a beret.)
2) I need to write a strongly worded letter to Wendy's about how they need to reopen their location by our houses.
3) If you use the words rodeo and dragons in the same sentence it doesn't really make sense. 
*You will be mocked for dressing like you're going to the rodeo even though it was not intentional.*
4) No one wants to sleep with John Rainbow. (Heather's turtle who's real name is John Rambo.)
5) Bunny wrangler is my great new career path. *My parents are gonna love it.*
6) The world is gonna love the new trend "sassy chic". *It does not make you look like a raccoon.*
7) Never go out in public when your driving the Struggle Bus because you'll end up driving it off a cliff.
8) Telling someone you will set them on fire really motivates them to do what you want.
9) The locals in Springfield are FREAKS!
10) Putting chalk in your hair makes it a funny texture. (Heather and I tried "hair chalking" and it failed...miserably.)
11) You should stay away from Mexican restaurants on Saturdays because they will not seat you and will not get your order right.
12) Don't tell people your hair is fake.
13) Don't take your hair out in public.
14) If you do end up taking your hair out in public don't hold it in your had the rest of the night.
15) If you do end up taking out your hair and carrying it around definitely don't start talking to it.
(Lessons 12-15 are in reference in our Hair.Do extensions)

So, I know this is a jumpsuit but...damn girl. 

These pools look like heaven. However, I think I would be a little frightened!

Have you ever brought out a Big Ass Purse?

p.s. Don't forget to go see The Lorax this weekend! Check out my movie review on it to find out more information!

DIY: Make Your Own Trail Mix!

This week I decided to make my own trail mix. Don't get me wrong store bought mix can be delicious but there's always that unwanted part. When making your own mix you get the final, and well the only, say in what you're eating. For my mix I put banana chips, chocolate chips, unsalted sunflower seeds, craisins, and almonds. I like my mixes to be somewhat sweet and always with a hint of chocolate. Some other good things to add would be peanut butter chips, peanuts, pineapple chips (seriously so delicious!), white chocolate chips, dried cherries... I mean I could go on and on.
Here's my awesome mix!
Honestly this is the best snack for a day when you're on the go whether it's a day full of errands or classes. It's also a much healthier alternative to a bag of chips. You know exactly what you're putting in your body since you're the one making it! What kind of foods do you guys like in your trail mix?
