How and what to pack for college

Let me be honest, I thought packing would be easier the second time around. I am also probably the worst person to help you pack for college, so have fun and I hope I waste a few minutes of your time. If you skip over this post because quite frankly, this means nothing to you, rock on. I get it. 
If you are a college freshie jumping into the wonderful world of college, or even an upperclassman who has no clue what to stick into your plastic storagebin next, grab your wine coffee(?), or anything caffeinated and lets get it started in here.




H&M Blazer: ONLY $10! I've had a blazer for over 2 years (from Urban) and it's still in perf condition! You are going to need one wether for a job interview, spicing up a cute outfit, or just to walk around campus to make it look like you are official and have a job/internship. You'll need it, I promise! If you want a better quality one obviously check out J.Crew, Banana Republic. Ya know the drill.





LBD, but obviously. 
I love the ones from Dress Up Boutique (Only $19, get it now) and Nordstrom
Reasons why you need a LBD? must I even explain? Formals/Date Party/Ceremonies/Casual days/interviews/party rockin'/and so many more.

+  A MANY lazy outfits. Duh. Please don't be that girl that dresses up every day to go to class. #Leggings&GymShorts
+  A bathing suit. Ya never know when you'll need it
+  Random shirts and bottoms you think you'd never need. Super Hero Mixer? Better be packing your batman shirt. Neon American Apparel Spandex? Highlighter/Neon party, you know it. Frayed "Rocker-T?" Last minute halloween outfit, courtesy of your closet!

Dont ya just love my blonde frizzy hair?!

GROOLEST APP..EVER!

Mean Girls reference, duh!

Since I've just been blogging about everything preppy lately...I ain't stoping now!
I wanted to let you guys know I discovered the coolest app. Ever.

download 3initials on your iPhone
...
...
I'll wait.
Still waiting.

Not convinced?
Basically this app walks you through your customized monogram background!
You add your initials *Make sure you put your last name in the middle if you want it like that*
Then choose font/background colors, as well as background design (checkerboard/polka dots/stripes/etc.)
You can also drag/resize to place it where you would like.



I tried it out a few times. Still struggling with the colors I like but it's a really awesome app!

....You downloaded it, right?

In other news, yesterday I wasn't feeling too great and didn't want to get out of bed (eventually I did) but this is what B said to me, which I found funny because we rarely talk about my bloglife (because he doesn't understand it). HE ALSO (tried) TO MAKE A MEAN GIRLS REFERENCE, which is rare because he always references movies I never understand: 




Happy weekend!
