Pinning Over: Polo, Pearls and Pinterest part 2
I have told you guys before that in middle school I was a total prep. I tend to shy away from "preppy style" these days but every now and then I get an itch! I found some amazing outfits that are totally preppy and perfect for spring.

Moving In
The month of February was hectic! I have been busy trying to fix up my new place. So far I have found a kitchen tabel, a couch and chair , a rug and finally an ottoman. I am so excited that everything is finally coming together. I still need curtains and pillows and then I will be ready to show you guys my new place.
I took this picture before my house warming party. My family really hooked me up with some amazing kitchen supplies. I love cooking and I am so excited about being to make my "smelly" curry without my parents or a roommate telling me it smells bad!
Where do you guys go to find pillows?

What Me Eat Wednesday!
Butternut Squash Soup
Last week I found an amazing recipe for Butternut Squash soup and I was so excited to make it. But then when I went to find the recipe I couldn't find it anywhere! So... I decided to make up my own recipe. I must say it turned out amazing and I just had to share it with you guys!
Ingredients:
1 Butternut Squash (cut in cubes)
3 Large Carrots
1/2 cup Coconut Milk
1 tablespoon Ginger
2 tablespoons Garlic
1 Large Onion
Red Pepper Flakes (to taste)
1 cup Vegetable Broth
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
How I made It:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place cleaned carrots and cubed butternut squash on a baking sheet and splash with olive oil. Bake for 35 minutes. Dice carrots when cooled.
2. Place olive oil, onions, garlic, ginger in a large pot. Cook until onions are translucent.
3. Place butternut squash, carrots, red pepper flakes, vegetable broth, and coconut milk in pot. Cook for 30 minutes.
4. Transfer soup into a blender and blend until soup is smooth.

A Very Merry Christmas!
I hope you guys had a very merry Christmas! I was extremely blessed this Christmas and I received some awesome gifts from my students, coworkers and friends. Here are some of the gifts my parents got me.
I am sure you guys have heard about Sigma brushes; well I finally got some! I cannot believe how amazing these brushes feel on my skin.
I love Lush bath bombs and bubble bars so naturally when I got the art of bathing I was extremely excited. I foresee ALOT of awesome baths in my future.
My mom surprised me with an awesome fragrance set from Sephora!
I have lusted after these boots for years!! I have wide calfs so its really hard to find cute wide calf boots. Well finally Etienne Aligner heard my cry and started making these amazing boots in wide calf.
This is probably my favorite gift. For years I have kept my make up in two clear plastic drawers from The Container Store. I liked them but I just didn't love the way the drawers looked. I absolutely love my new Acrylic make up box. It can comfortably fit my Urban Decay Naked palettes and the Vice Palette.
I mean what can I really say about this? I feel like the picture speaks for its self! The pigmentation in this palette is amazing!!
What I Wore:
So I know you guys probably hate when I do this but...The majority of my outfit is really really old!
