Monogram Gives Me Life!!

If anyone knows me, they will know that I love to monogram everything that I can get my hands on. Monogram is just the best way to personalize anything you own. 

Here is a inspirational quote from Glenn O'Brien: "The Monogram is an elegant way to make your mark. It's your name boiled down to the essence, executed with graphic artist."

There are so many things out there that you can place a monogram on to truly make it unique. I definitely love carrying my monogrammed tote and wearing my monogrammed watch everyday. I get so many compliments on them that I can't help but smile every time. My new found favorite monogrammed item is my Erin Condren Life Planner. The planner cover can feature any picture of your choice or your initials. I mean how cute is this geode cover?

Why wouldn't you love to wear something personalized with your initials?

Embrace Your Geekness Day!

If you haven't guessed it by the title, today is Embrace Your Geekness Day! I am not one for labels so I would not like to say I am geek but I am definitely a part of quite a few fandoms.

Supernatural has definitely become one of my many life obsessions. My boyfriend did warn me that once I started watching it that I would become hooked. I made it my mission to watch the entire series from the beginning and of course by this time they were at season 7 or 8 I believe. Three years later and I am still an avid watcher!

I have also always been obsessed with The Vampire Diaries ever since it premiered when I was in high school. I would watch this show religiously every week and would let nothing stop me. Sadly, my life became too hectic that I wasn't able to keep up with the series but I do plan on getting caught up!

One of my most favorite fandoms is TRANSFORMERS! I have no shame in how much I love Transformers. When I was 16, my mother threw me a transformers themed birthday. We had a transformer cake, plates, cup and ever a tablecloth. It was amazing. I honestly have no idea why but I just love Transformers. I have seen every movie multiple times and cannot wait for the new movie to come out! 

My Favorite Apps To Use!

There are so many apps that I love to use on a daily basis! Apps help make the world go round and there is an app for just about everything! 

Some of my favorite apps to use are:

1. Monogram by Yellow Lab Inc.

This app is amazing if you are a monogram lover! They have so many cute and trendy backgrounds as well as seasonal and holiday ones. There are a variety of fonts and colors to choose from. One can never have too many monogram wallpapers.

2. We Heart It

It is a mixture of Instagram, Pinterest and Tumblr. You can like pictures and then add to to collections or boards that you create. There are a lot of cute and creative pictures that one could find.

3. Gas Buddy

This may seem like a pointless app but it is oh so functional. I drive a lot and it is always a hassle to try and hunt down the cheapest and/or nearest gas station. This app allows you view multiple gas stations in your area as well as their current gas prices. A efficient component of this app is that relies on it's real life members to consistently update the gas prices. This app comes in handy when you are traveling or in a new location. Gas Buddy also has a website for those who are less tech savvy. 

4. GrubHub

GrubHub comes in handy when you are in need or finding a restaurant that has takeout and/or delivery without the hassle of googling it. This app comes in handy to view the restaurant's menu as well as the business hours and contact information. I love how this app also shows you when the restaurant starts delivery hours and can even allow you to order takeout straight from the app itself.

Have A Stylish Summer!

Even though summer has already started, it is never too late to start looking cute! Everyone is dressing in bright colors and wild prints this summer so why not stand out?

What is in my purse?

I always see bloggers post about what is in their bags and purses so I thought... Why not create one of my own?

When I was younger, I would NEVER wear a purse and I hated to carry one. Ironically, now as I am in my adult years, I would not be caught dead without my purse or bad!

My favorite tote to carry is my Monogramed Longchamp Inspired Weekender  from Etsy. I love carrying this tote because it always holds everything that I need to carry on daily basis and it is very durable. Doesn't the monogram just make the bag even cuter? 

The shop on Etsy that I bought this tote from also has many different colors to choose from for the color of the bag and thread of the monogram. 

When I go out for the day I always carry:

Chapstick
Pencil Case
Planner

TabletPost It Notes
Wallet (At ALL Times)
Sunglasses
Car Keys (At ALL Times)
Hand Sanitizer
Hand Lotion
Scrap Paper
A Couple of Hair Ties
Gum

Ipod

Headphones

I occasionally bring my portable phone charger but that usually depends on how much battery I currently have and what I would be doing for the day.
