Hand me downs anyone?

I am on a quest for the best consignment shops in the DC metro area! Know of any? Please comment to let me know. The consignment stores chosen will be featured on this blog and on one of my favorite blogs in the DMV (who I also happen to guest write for) glamourina.com!

"new" pics

Here are some pics I took with my vintage camera that I JUST got developed ... even though they were taken during the summer of 2011... Procrastination at its best!! They're from a random day walking around downtown DC and from my short, yet beautiful vacation in Phoenix, AZ. These pics bring about a certain feeling of nostalgia and a yearning for flirty summer romances and those lazy, care-free days... You know, the ones where absolutely anything goes and you have nothing on your mind except maybe what restaurant you'll try out for dinner or what flavor macaroon you'll eat for dessert. 

Let's remind ourselves to have more of these types of days, shall we?

Happy New Year!

Oh, hello 2012...

I've definitely been a little MIA. Mainly because of the holidays, but also because I'm officially a full-fledged business owner (please check out my site: www.gilliseducation.org). Between constant paperwork, phone calls and meetings, my time lately has been very limited. BUT, I'm not complaining! The new year has brought about a lot of change, yet I'm really excited to see what's in store!

One of my new year goals is to get in better shape. So to help me reach this goal, I started with a personal trainer today, Deanna Jefferson, owner of The Fab Body Factory. She. Is. Amazing.  If you're in the DC area and looking for someone to push you to your goal weight/ideal body, send her an email! You'll thank me later!

Happy New Year!!
