For Ben,

Because he understands,
So change it up, bitch…

It has been brought to my attention that I’m not much for routines. I’ve never made it to work at the same time each day, I’ve never been able to commit to something “once a week” such as yoga and for the most part I think it is safe to say, I like to change it up…

With that being said, we are kissing the “series” goodbye. I will update those thoughts when they mean something. Predictability doesn’t turn me on.

While I am sure everyone is dying to know how my NYFW went, unless you are interested in the clickety clackety of my fingers hitting the keyboard “over and over, and over, and over, and over like a monkey with a miniature symbol” we should move on. Among other things, NYFW can also be blamed for my lack of posts. Really, it is time to move on.

So, as my fingers were clickety clacking at my keyboard far past an appropriate time for the day to end, I reminisced over a time much less busy. It was then that I remembered that time I wasn’t invited to the Met Gala. That was one serious case of FOMO, but after a glass of wine I was over it… (more…)

Amanda’s Absolutes 5

Amanda's Absolutes

For a little certainty,

Because nothing in life is a sure bet…
So here are my absolutes this week!!!
 

Remember that time I said I was starting a new series on the blog with product reviews… Blah Blah Blah

Things are a changing… although posting Amanda’s Absolutes once a week might have been a little over zealous… So, without further ado Volume Five…

Amanda’s Absolutes. Why? Just to remind you – because it is high time we got to know each other a little better.
