Lauren's Bachelorette Party at Lips!

Saturday was Lauren's Bachelorette Party and little did we know that this past weekend was also Pride Weekend in Atlanta!  We celebrated with the fabulous Mr. Charlie Brown and the lovely ladies at Lips!  You know me - I love me some Lips so I was super excited when Lauren suggested it for her party :)
Please excuse the horrible iPhone photos - I forgot to bring my little point-and-shoot.  It was a rough week, y'all :(


My new beauty inspiration: the super gorgeous Violet Chachki


Lauren and the legendary Mr. Charlie Brown!

 

We had such a blast!!  The night was full of dancing, singing (my favorite was a super sexy performance of Drunk In Love) and drinks galore!  Everyone had so much fun and I'm so glad Lauren enjoyed her night!
With all the Bachelorette fun, we didn't experience any Pride festivities :(  Oh well.  Maybe next year?

How was your weekend?

Eclipse Season and a Q+A with my cards

  

This full moon eclipse has me kinda freaking out a little.  There's a lot of energy associated with this Full Moon in Aries and I'm kinda secretly but not-so-secretly freaking out about what to do next.  I've got this idea of what the next phase in my life should look like and be but the Mercury Retrograde happening right now is preventing me from starting to hash out anything major with it for fear of it getting the wrong energy.  I don't know what to do!!


The Kind of Pentacles / The Hanged Man / The Three of Cups

I asked my cards to tell me about someone in my life and I got the King of Pentacles for the second time in a row for them - which leads me to believe that the two cards that followed when I asked a follow up question concerning plans with that person means it's gonna be a GREAT thing!

Now, if I could just practice some more patience, let the Universe guide me by letting go and not doing what is expected of me (for once!) (Hanged Man), we can get to the celebration much quicker (Three of Cups)!  That's my interpretation.  If you have some insight or your own interpretation, please share! :)

How is your week going?  Did you get to enjoy the Eclipse?

PS - concerning The Hanged Man card, I feel like these videos from Teal, that I had watched earlier in the day, were very fitting!

The Soundtrack to my Birthday: "Pompeii"

Today is my birthday and I'm celebrating by enjoying the various covers of "Pompeii" by Bastille that Lauren has lovingly posted on my FB timeline!  It's running joke with us and that song, so it's kinda mandatory on a day like today :)  Enjoy!


NEW FAVORITE: Anthem Lights









This kid is amazing!!



Beautiful acoustic version from Bastille themselves:



And, of course, the HOLY GRAIL of "Pompeii" covers:


Obviously, the next logical step is to record our own cover of it ;)
I hope you have an awesome day!

PS - there are WAY MORE covers to check out!

Instagram Jams!

Found some cute Deery Lou stationery from FOREVER ago!  I may or may not have sent a letter (or two!) // My guy and I got creative with some Shrinky Dinks I found while packing // I followed fellow ATLien, Erica Loesing's tutorial on Design Sponge and created my own embossed cards!  I also played around with my faux calligraphy! Is it too early to start thinking about Valentine's Day already? // Lauren took my guy and me to experience Ration and Dram last night and it was AMAZING!  I mean - look at that guitar-shaped dessert!

Happy Friday!
