WO: Weekly Obsessions
Much as I love my new city, I’m thrilled to spend a few days home in Florida. I venture back this weekend for a baby shower in anticipation of my good friends’ first child. I’ve known them for years and was honored to be in their wedding, so I couldn’t be happier to share this celebration with them. Let’s get to the WOs before the tears start.
- “Shameless”: It’s been a long time (like, whole life, long) since I’ve had Showtime. Didn’t even know I was missing this incredible foray into one F-ed up family. I’m so sad the finale is soon, but I know I’ll be keeping Showtime around for its return.
- Cucumber Collins: Speaking of heavy drinking, I’m seriously enamored with this simple and refreshing cocktail. It reminds me that spring is around the corner, despite the snowy days we’ve had this week.
- Charles Emerson Designs: I was introduced to this site by Rachel, where the jewelry is a perfect mix of classic and trendy pieces. And the prices? Even better.
- “Stay” – Rihanna f. Mikky Ekko: I’ve long negated Rihanna, both personally and professionally. Her music + style … just aren’t my style. Enter this song, which I blame for tricking me into thinking it was “Colors of the Wind.” Yeah, on the radio.
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon?

WO: Weekly Obsessions
Remember how, a few weeks back, I was all about Adele’s “Skyfall”? Well, scratch that. It’s been stuck in my head since SATURDAY when I saw the Bond flick with my parents. I need it out like, yesterday. Distractions have come in these four forms:
- The Hall of Shame: Being home for a few days allowed me a trip down memory lane, AKA the hallway of photos that so elegantly displays my most awkward years. Glad to see I never grew out of those cheeks.
- Curative Massage: Also in my hometown? This local favorite. The husband-and-wife duo are as friendly as they are soothing. It was just the thing I needed after a hellish few weeks.
- Stella & Dot: As much as I loved the essie + BaubleBar giveaway, I’m even more excited for a S&D event I’m hosting Saturday. Shop online for awesome stocking stuffers — shipping only takes 3 to 5 days!
- FratMusic: An old friend convinced me to buy this app after drinking heavily, and it’s been a good buy. Playlists like Broin’ Out and Hoin’ Out have hilarious subcategories and awesome mash-ups.
Party on.
