staying healthy

being healthy in college is usually easier said than done. you are surrounded by unhealthy food and have little time to be thinking about it. some of us may be lucky enough to have a kitchen but most of us are stuck with making our food right next to our beds. so to help everyone keep up with healthy living and eating in college we have come up with some tips and food suggestions that will hopefully help.

time to eat | brunch part one

in the next few weeks we will be doing a series on outfits to wear to brunch inspired by some of taylor's favorites spots to eat in new york city. but even if you don't live in the city, don't worry because we are sure you will find a place to rock these outfits. 

our first stop is at rosemary's located in the west village. we have included some pictures to get you in the mood.

dorm room decor

this was one of the most important things we worried about as we got ready to head to college. what's the theme? what should go on the walls? does it match my personality? is it instagram worthy? hopefully we can offer some helpful tips and pretty suggestions for your dorm decorating. 


taylor's thought process
when I started thinking about what I wanted for my dorm, I knew I wanted to keep it light because my room would be so small. it was a risk getting a white quilt but so far I haven't spilled anything on it besides some lilac nail polish. I also love cream and gold so I added small accessories that have gold in them. 

one of the biggest debates was what was I going to do with my wall. tapestry, photos, lights? I ended up with photos because I wanted to remind myself of being home. I was able to find these cheap, white frames from ikea to give my photos a more finished look instead of just taping them to the wall. the polaroids I have collected through last semester to represent my new memories here. and finally at first I wasn't going to have lights but the lighting is horrendous in my room so it became a necessity. 

don't forget some throw pillows and a blanket to snuggle up in on those cold nights to watch your favorite tv show or movie.
