My poor blog. I did not forget about it. I think of it often. And I miss staying up until 3 am uploading pictures and rambling on it. However I had to take a short hiatus from my daily posts to attend to a life in transition and a new fall schedule. My blog "to do list" is about 4 college ruled pages long at this point and I am itching to start crossing things off one by one. Ive accumulated over a months worth of outfit pictures, collages, and updates. I need to get a few more life matters squared away this week and I should be back like a bad habit. There are a few quick things I would like to share while I have a minute:
THE NEW YORKIE
A very driven, creative, gracious, and good-humored friend of mine who has been working in advertising for several years in Raleigh recently relocated to NYC and started a blog to document the fun and exciting life that can only be experienced as a New Yorker. She has great taste, lives a very healthy lifestyle, and is the loving mama of a sweet Yorkie named Gwyneth. Her blog includes healthy but delicious recipes that are souper dee duper easy,

her adventures in DIY-ing just about anything she finds while "dumpster diving,"
and daily doses of inspiration. She's got lots of pictures of her fab apartment and keeps readers posted on the transformation of her "house" into a home.
Definitely check out
her blog- she's one to follow fer shur.
In my most recent post I asked anyone who was sweet with a minute to spare if they would take it and "like" a picture I submitted to Rent the Runway for a Facebook contest. There was no over the top cash prize or shiny golden trophy for winning, but this is a website I love- so being noticed by them was enough fulfillment for me. Like I said before, I wasn't expecting anything to happen. But I was overwhelmingly supported by my facebook friends and family along with lots of gracious strangers and on Friday morning I woke up to my picture as the profile of
RTR's fan page and a sweet note about me
on their blog. Most people would probably think "Oh, cool I won." But I was like-"
!@#$!@%$&# YEAH!!!!!!!!!" And did the Dougie. So
thank you,
thank you,
thank you if you gave me a "thumbs up" in the contest. I've never won anything before so it
really made my day. Really.
3. A Few of My Favorite Things
This one dress has three of my favorite things built right in. Sequins, a bow, and a collar. Oh yeah and it was $34. IT. WAS. $34 DOLLARS. Hi, No Brainer- I'm Bethany. Nice to meet you.
I hope to get back to my regular blogging routine bright and early Monday morning! I love you madly!
