America

Bud, I am sure you are well aware, but I wanted to remind you that you are really good at what you do. Although I am a true Saint Louis Anheuser-Busch fan/supporter/lover, Budweiser may be my least favorite beer - next to Miller Light of course. But those new cans you got going on have been seducing me like a mad temptress. I want you for one thing and one thing only, your looks! Hot dog, diggity damn!

Read about the redesign of bud cans here. Interesting article.

Plain Jane

Call me Plain Jane or Lamo Lucy, but I am madly in love with this chick's simple style. Not much going on, but most of the time, that's just the way I like it. Black long tee dress and some sexy specs and that's a wrap, folks!

Heat Wave

90 degree temperatures is all I can remember. For those who know me well, you can imagine the sweat. Yikes. All I dream of are large fans. I've had my eye on these bad boys for quite some time now and just as the cash is running low, these puppies dropped in price. My room could really use a new piece, especially one that would keep me from waking up drenched.

Saint Louis Summer Staycation

I wanted to share a few of my favorite photos from the saint louis summer staycation. I cannot tell you how wonderful and refreshing it felt with all five of us under the same roof again. Yes, liz found some of her shorts in my bag and I found about five of my tops shoved in her drawers, but that little petty shit doesn't matter any more, especially when you only get to see your sisters a few times a year. It wouldn't have mattered if we were in the virgin islands or in scorching hot saint louis, we were together and that's all that mattered (not trying to be a sap, but want you to know how much I friggin' miss us five together).

Needless to say, the staycation was fun-filled with all of our favorite places and people and a few of mom's surprises along the way! Pink sisters, winslows, sugos, the bips, strawberry jam, saturday lunch at bread co, cake balls, the whole damn fam, old besties, brews & bratwursts, a step up from my jersey knits, and donna, kelly, & brenda back at it!

Life as of Late

How I have missed you all. No excuse besides the fact that it's summer and I have been busy discovering the city, baking carrot cakes, guzzling the last of indiana's dog fish head 90 minute, & driving up north to hang with a few fancy friends. The fun continues as I head back to the lou for a long weekend to reunite with the fam, but sooner than later, I shall make a full recovery! Tah-tah and a toast to you all. Hooray, hooray for summer!

A Day in the Life

Another day in the life of me living vicariously through the eyes of the ever-so-fabulous, Jenna Lyons. Click here to catch a glimpse of just another day at the office. Oh, what I would give...
