While browsing on <a href="http://www.refinery29.com/typepop#disqus_thread" target="_blank">Refinery 29</a> today I came across a fun new photo editor, <a href="http://typepop.com/" target="_blank">Type Pop</a>. Upload a picture and chose from a few different word options like "nom nom nom", "oh, hi", "super cute" etc. It's free, super easy and links your edited pictures directly to Facebook or gives you a link for your blog. Once they allow you to add your own phrases and they accept larger file sizes this site will be even more user friendly!<br />

A group of us went downtown to support Mark and the cause. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The event was held outdoors under some tents and it was a gorgeous night. Once we checked in we hit the buffet (which had mini <a href="http://sprinkles.com/" target="_blank">sprinkles</a> cupcakes - YUM) and the bar. Then we visited all of the different teams and tried out their dishes. Obviously my favorite was Mark's teams dish; steak over corn salsa and shitake mushrooms with a delicious thyme/butter sauce. Seriously, it was TDF, I may have had three servings...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Anyway, Mark's team somehow didn't win, but it was a fun night overall, here are some pictures (sorry for the red eye, I only had my iPhone handy).</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This past weekend Mark and I visited his cousins in New Jersey and we went to NYC for the day. After we met up with Mark's cousins in the city we went to <a href="http://doughnutplant.com/" target="_blank">Doughnut Plant</a>, which was delciousss. Then Mark and the boys went to <a href="http://www.pigisland.com/" target="_blank">Pig Island</a> and I went to the <a href="http://www.bbg.org/" target="_blank">Brooklyn Botanic Gardens</a> with Lindsay. Fun day in the city!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Mark and I loveee <a href="http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/en/welcome.aspx" target="_blank">Cirque du Soleil</a> shows, so when we heard <a href="http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/en/shows/totem/default.aspx" target="_blank">Totem</a> was coming to National Harbor we decided to get tickets. This was my 5th Cirque show and Mark's 7th (ridiculous). So before the show we ate at <a href="http://www.elevationburger.com/EB.php" target="_blank">Elevation Burger</a> and got cupcakes at <a href="http://www.cakelove.com/" target="_blank">Cake Love</a> and walked around <a href="http://nationalharbor.com/" target="_blank">National Harbor</a>. Obviously the show was amazing, I definitely recommend you check it out if you can! All in all a great date night!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Backtracking a little here. The 2012 <a href="http://www.citiopentennis.com/" target="_blank">Citi Open</a> (formerly Legg Mason Tennis Classic) is an annual tournament here in DC held the last week in july/first week in August. And I have gone to it as long as I can remember. I am still getting used to calling it the Citi Open though, definitely partial to LM! It isn't summer unless you go to at least one day of matches. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This year, as it has the past five years, vacation with Mark's family is during tournament week. But yet again, we lucked out with tickets to the finals! We ate a delicious (but clearly overpriced) lunch in the Courtside Cafe, walked around, got some sweet freebies, and then watched the final match, Dolgopolov v. Haas. But in typical LM fashion, it rained. Oh, why does it always rain?? At least it wasn't scorching hot like it usually is, but let me tell you, Haas is not too bad to look at.</span></div>

We went to Sarasota, Florida for the 5th year in a row with Mark's family for vacation. And it was awesome. I love spending time with Mark and his family, and then you have the beach AND the Olympics this year! Here are some pictures from our trip...</div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This past Saturday I took my little brother to tour Georgetown University. Being number one in his class with a ridiculous GPA well over a 4.0 and taking all AP classes along with indoor track and the Tennis Teams MVP (3 years in a row) and County Champ (2 years in a row)this boy has toured almost all of the Ivy's (#humblebrag). His top two picks at the moment are Yale and Columbia. Obviously I am super proud and super jealous of his smarty pants-ness.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After taking 4 forms of transportation to get there we arrived at Georgetown. I love the town of Georgetown, great shopping and places to eat, right on the water and close to DC. And then you get to campus and it is beautiful. The architecture is old and just amazing.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">We started out at an information session then a student run tour. </span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">We learned lots of fun facts about the University. For example, did you know the library from Disney's Beauty and the Beast was based on the one in Healy Hall? And apparently the Harry Potter producers wanted to base Hogwarts on the architecture at the school, but they said no because they don't believe in witchcraft (how do you say no to Harry Potter? I just don't get it!)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">All in all it was a fun day. We met up with my future sister in law for a delicious lunch at <a href="http://www.serendipity3dc.com/" target="_blank">Serendipity 3</a> and then did some shopping at Urban Outfitters before we headed back. Serge ended up liking Georgetown a lot, it is now at about #4 on his college list. I'm excited to see where he gets in and where he decides to go. Next up, just finishing Senior year!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So I have been on a show buying spree recently. I mean a girl can't have too many pairs of shoes right?? So we have a variety here, first up these gorgeous calf hair printed loafers from <a href="http://www.gap.com/" target="_blank">Gap</a>. I saw them in a post on <a href="http://matchbookmag.com/blog/fashion/the-daily-fancy-113/" target="_blank">Matchbook's Daily Spark</a> and I fell in love. Bought them right then and there. I think they are going to be PERFECT for fall. They are going to be amazing when I need to dress up an outfit or add a fun print.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So my running shoes are pretty beat. I have had them for about a year and I am wayyy overdue on getting a new pair. So I lucked out and got these bad boys for only $60 at Sports Authority over the weekend. Can't wait to break them in!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So I went shopping with my mom about a month ago and I wasn't going to buy anything for myself, but then I saw these wedge booties for $7 each! They reminded me so much of the <a href="http://www.shoemint.com/shoes/jolly" target="_blank">Shoemint Jolly's</a> that I had wanted for forever, but let's be serious, I am not spending $80 on them. And I found them at the most random store...Lane Bryant...seriously. Welp, they will be in rotation in fall and winter when I don't want to wear tall boots.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">And then there is Target and Nordstrom. Probably my two favorite stores. From Nordstrom I picked up a pair of plain black Tom's, because I am obsessed, and a pair of Rainbows, because apparently I am crazy for not owning these before now. From Target I satisfied my recent need for all things leopard print with these sandals that I have gotten a lot of use out lately.</span> </div>

For only $30 they were a steal compared to similar ones I see online all the time. I can't wait to wear them with a vibrant spring dress when the weather decides to stay a little warmer. I also think they will be perfect for Vegas when I go in May. I couldn't find any stock images online for some reason, so here are some from my iPhone. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><i>Supplies Needed: </i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Scissors, Tissue Paper and Floral Wire</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">1. Choose your color(s) of tissue paper. If you want your pom pom bigger, you will use more tissue paper. For this tutorial I used two pieces of tissue paper. Fold the tissue paper in half (the tissue paper I used is 13" x 19.5" when folded.)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">2. Begin folding the tissue paper accordion style in 1.5" sections.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">3. Take a piece of 18" floral wire and fold in half. Then place accordion style tissue paper in between the floral wire and twist the floral wire so it is secure, but don't twist it too tight. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">4. Use scissors to cut either rounded or pointed edges (I cut rounded because I like the finished look better than the pointed ones I have seen online.)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">5. Separate layers individually, starting with the tissues on one side of the floral wire at a time. Separate the inner most layer first by bringing it to the center, then the next layer and so on, (if you used two pieces of tissue paper you should have four layers on each side of the floral wire.) Then separate the other side. Don't worry if you tear the tissue paper a little bit, there is so much going on that you won't be able to notice any little imperfections.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">6. Decide how you want to decorate! I will be using this pom pom and the others I made tonight at a friends Baby Shower in April. I haven't decided if I am going to hang them with ribbons from the ceiling or make a garland of pom pom flowers. I have added some cool ways to decorate with your pom pom flowers at the bottom of this post. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">This past weekend was my beautiful friend Lauren's baby shower. Lauren and her hubby JT live in Florida, so I do not get to see her too often, which I wish wasn't the case, but it was great seeing her and many of my college friends, even if for a short period of time. </span></div>

Basically Birchbox is a monthly subscription service that sends you beauty samples all across the board. </span></span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 20px;">After you fill out your beauty profile, they send you items that pertain to your skin type, hair type and your personal style. </span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="letter-spacing: 1px; line-height: 20px;">Think nail polish, perfume samples, shampoo, hair spray, and a million other things you wouldn't normally think of, but once you get them, they turn out to be things you can't believe you have been living without! And the best part of this site is that once you sample a product you like, you can go online and purchase the full size version directly from their web site. When you do this you save yourself some time and also earn rewards points that can be used towards either your monthly subscription or other full sized items. </span></span></span></span><br />
