There's something about coming home to a freshly made bed. I have been trying to make my bed before I leave for work every morning. I know, MOM, I am 24 years old. I should be in the habit of making my bed everyday, but I am not a morning person, and I have a 20- minute commute to work. Most days, I barely get out the door with dry hair.
For some reason, when my bed is made, I am more apt to stay more organized. Since I have been on this kick, my apartment has been much cleaner. After looking at some inspiring photos and reading this and this, I was ready to try for myself.
Ta-Da! I still need some colorful pillows and a bedskirt, but the bed looks better than ever. The best part is, since I tucked my comforter under my mattress, making the bed was a piece of cake the next morning. Now, if only I shared the same enthusiasm for washing the dishes...
.....Must Have.....
If you're a girl frequenting the wedding circuit (which is practically every girl in her 20s and 30s), you know how many occasions call for a new cocktail dress. Whether an engagement party, a wedding, a bridal shower, a bachelorette party, you always seem to be looking for new dress. On the same token, if you're a girl in her 20s like me, you're not on a "buy a dress a month" budget. A few months ago I wore this dress to my friend Hanna's wedding.
To date, this dress is one of my all time favorite purchases. For those of you who have never heard of a convertible dress, it's 12 dresses in one. Thanks to the extra few yards of built in fabric, you can wear the dress a ton of different ways. My particular dress is by Von Vonni, but several designers offer them.
So, the next time a friend announces her engagement, save time and money by snagging a convertible dress. Who says you can't wear the same dress two times, even twelve times? You can have your wedding cake and eat it too!
