Most recently in Megan's Adventures of Shopping Her Own Closet, this light little ruffled sweater that's perfect for spring. I think I'm the worst fashion blogger of all time because everything I show you is old. "Here's the cutest sweater I own! But you can't have one, because I bought it six years ago."

In other news, I'm still wearing athletic clothes and passing them off as professional (see Lululemon tank top), but I think it's working--I cannot stress enough how perfect this tank top is. Another win for athleisure (and cleaning out your closet once every few months).

I love writing things on paper and could definitely not function with just an electronic calendar--I live and die by my planner. Similarly, I've never been able to get into e-books or reading any sort of book on an iPad or Nook. I need to be able to underline.

I have two tattoos and am planning my third.

When we were in Miami for a few days I was able to start putting my thoughts together in Spanish and it really made me want to start practicing again, but I almost don't even know where to start. I have good reading and comprehension but my speaking skills are so rusty that I don't feel confident in Spanish conversation at all. I know it won't get better until I start using it, though.

Sometimes I'm in the mood to cry so I'll play the song "If I Die Young" by The Band Perry. It devastates me every time.

I was starting to think that maybe I didn't have a gluten intolerance after all but on Saturday I ate three pieces of bread and a slice of pizza and ended up puking my guts out for an hour, so I think I'm going to cool it for a while. This isn't the first time, and I always feel kind of foolish for putting my body through the things I sometimes do to it. But, I mean...bread.

I have a phobia of big character body suits, like the Chick-Fil-A cow or any sports team mascot. I don't like clowns either and I think they all feel the same to me in some way.

What are some things people don't know about you?

Just over a year ago, in an effort to make our new apartment feel a bit more like home, I got some new pillow covers for our sofa and artwork to hang in the living room. It certainly did the trick, but lately I've been feeling frustrated about our furniture--I like every piece on its own, but thrown together in one room it feels kind of disjointed.

Everything in our living room is either black, white, or grey, so I thought we'd have a nice neutral vibe going on, but there was still something missing. We put our dinner table in storage because we never used it and I moved a light blue vintage chair into that corner and hung some more art, which helped, but it still wasn't finished.

So when Ace Hardware asked me to participate in their 31 Days of Color campaign like I did last year, I jumped at the opportunity and started looking through all of the colors. I thought a grey statement wall behind the couch (where I hung that print last year--Untitled 2 by Jamie Derringer at Minted) would be the final piece that would make the living room feel complete. And it was! On Saturday night Rob and I played a few episodes of our favorite shows in the background and painted our wall with Valspar's Tabby Cat Gray, which is pretty much the perfect color--neutral, cool, and not too dark while still contrasting the white of the other walls.

We spend a ton of time in our living room, so it's nice to feel proud of it. It's finally cozy!

I'm often overwhelmed with the task of making our apartment feel "homey," and I always forget both how easy it is to paint a wall and what a huge difference it can make. It's cheap and relatively fast and really brings a space to life.
