I’ve loved living back in New York for the past couple months. It’s so great to be with my family and my dog, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss Boston a whole lot, especially my sisters. Even when I graduated a little early, I was still super involved with my sorority, even having Initiation at my apartment and crashing their Bid Day celebration (love you!). 

But since I’ve been far away from my best friends, I’ve realized how much they really have my back from miles and miles away. Even though I’m not physically there with them, I still feel their love and support all the time. They truly are my family. 

When my best friend Kennedy and I went to Disney last March, my amazing, perfect Little, Victoria, made us matching letters. Yup, she MADE them! She’s so insanely talented, it blows my mind. These are hands down my favorite letters that I own. Whenever I wear them, I think of how grateful I am for my sisters who love me enough to take me to Disney and make me letters to celebrate. 

Kennedy and I wore them on our first full day at Disney, when we met a bunch of other sisters in Epcot! We drank strawberry mango margaritas in Mexico and I flipped out when we saw Figment, who is my favorite dragon in the entire world (sorry, Dragon Tales). I got blue light sickness from Mission Space, which Kennedy made a lot of fun of me for (“My eight-year-old niece went on this and wanted to go again!”), so we ended the night by watching The Bachelor in our hotel room while I stuffed my face with sushi.

It feels pretty cheesy ending this by saying to appreciate and love the people in your life, but it’s Thanksgiving week, so I can be as cheesy as I want! I love my sorority sisters more than anything, and if you’re reading this, I hope you have that kind of love in your life too.

last recruitment ever

shirt (gamma exclusive, sorry bbs!). bralette. shorts. sneakers. perfume. sunglasses (mine are lighter!)

Hey hey hey! I know I’ve only mentioned it about a thousand times, but can you believe it’s already Recruitment season?! I met some of the amazing girls that want to join my family last night and got so much more excited than I already was. I still can’t believe our idea three years ago turned into this :’)

This is our Recruitment shirt from Spring 2017! It’s my personal favorite of our Recruitment shirts. I love the unique cut that helps us ~stand out~. I wore this top with my bralette, and to be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever not worn my bralette with this top. I don’t know what else I’d wear. Maybe a gold bralette? I don’t really want one?

I wore my black shorts and black Converse (is black your favorite color or something?) and let my hair down for the day. I wore Katy Perry’s Killer Queen perfume that smells as beautiful as it looks, and my wood sunglasses that broke the other day and I am SO SAD let’s not talk about it.

Are you rushing a sorority this semester? Let me know in the comments!

Happy Tuesday, angels! I hope you all had a fantastic weekend. I got to see some of my sorority sisters on Sunday! Our Vice President was sweet enough to have a barbecue for us. We had so much fun! My heart is so full when I spend time with them. I’m so lucky to have them.

So here’s a sorority look! I haven’t worn this tank in a while! It’s hand-washable, and I only do those every now and then #adultingproblems. But I’m so happy I got around to washing it because it’s really one of my favorites. I used to be a cheerleader, and we used to cheer at Emerson’s basketball games, so I got it in Emerson’s colors, purple and white. I’m actually super lucky I didn’t get it in purple and yellow or gold, which used to be Emerson’s colors. They rebranded to purple, white, and warm grey/silver. I have so many feelings about it but I will spare you.

Anyway! This jersey looks great with my black lace bralette. We have a little ~French tuck~ action happening here (Queer Eye fans ;) ). I didn’t even know that what I was doing was a ~thing~ until I started watching Queer Eye! For those of you who don’t watch (you’re missing out!) Tan, the fashion guardian angel, often suggests a French tuck, which is basically when you tuck in your shirt tightly, then loosen it up so it hangs over your waistline a bit. I love doing it with most of my tanks and my denim shorts.

I topped off the look with my black Converse and a super high bun. I was torn between black and white Converse because of the letters, but I went with the black because I figured it accented them better.

What’s a piece of sorority merch you’ve been dying to get? Let me know in the comments!
