Katy,
I was going through a drawer over the weekend, and accidentally found the engagement ring my boyfriend is planning to give me.
And when I opened the box I was horrified: It was the ugliest thing I’ve ever seen. It’s yellow gold and looks like it came out of a cracker jack box. I would send you a pic, but I don’t want him to KNOW it’s me.
Shouldn’t it bother me he apparently doesn’t know me at all? Is it wrong to have a friend step in and help find something I’d like?
HELP!

Amber,
Not really familiar territory for me, but yeah, I’d say have a friend step in. I wouldn’t let it bug you that he didn’t know your style. I hate to reference Sex and the City, but same problem! Guys aren’t good at that sort of thing. It can’t hurt to have someone who knows you just offer a helping hand.
I mean dude – you have to wear that thing all the time, you might as well like it?
Have you ever been here? What would you do?

Yesterday’s shopping venture took me back to good ole Pine Boutique.
Tara and Dani just got back from VEGAS, and though I didn’t want to know all the details of their trip (what happens in Vegas.. amiright?), I did want to see their new merch.
Had it not been 40 degrees last night, I might have even bought a dress. A tad uncharacteristic, I know, but some of the new maxis they came back with were just that great. Maybe that’s what I’ll do next week.. hmmm..
ANYWAY cold weather party on the patio-ing in mind – I opted for a new brand I noticed right away. T-Squad
T-Squad is an all American brand. Made by Americans, for Americans. So that’s pretty cool. I like knowing where my money is going.
From their website:
“Above all, we are American. T-Squad is a fight cry for our generation of Americans.
With the foundation of our past in heart and mind, the graphics represent a new sense of Americana.
The things we see and the whispers we hear evoke the spirit of the generation.
There is something irresistibly beautiful about America.”
That’s pretty deep for a tee shirt line.
One of the reasons I really liked the brand is that the stuff is so comfortable. Stylish tees are a great addition to any wardrobe, and Pine has a few designs to choose from.
I wore this skull shirt under my leather jacket LAST NIGHT.
And here’s what I’m sporting today.
For girls who think their style doesn’t really fit in with the Bryan/College Station area, you NEED to check out Pine Boutique. Find them off Texas in the Bed Bath & Beyond Shopping Center or do a little virtual windowshopping on facebook.
Happy Friday!

Here are this week’s questions!
1.) 4 YEARS
2.) IRON
How did you do?
Hey girl-
So………. the other night my boyfriend said he wanted a “guy’s night,” and he was going to meet up with some friends at a bar. Totally fine with me!
But lately, a girl he’s friends with has been posting all over his Facebook wall, and sending him DMS on Twitter.
I looked at her profile when my boyfriend was out, and she updated on Foursquare that she was at a bar…. with HIM.
Just because this girl was at the same bar, it doesn’t mean they planned to meet up. But obviously this girl is into him. Is my boyfriend cheating on me?

NOTHING GOOD CAN COME FROM FOURSQUARE.
I haven’t seen statistics on this or anything, but I’m willing to bet social media is the number one cause of breakups and/or divorces today.
OF COURSE there’s a huge possibility that this guy just happened to run into her at a bar. Maybe she’s a crazy stalker who just knows where he’s most likely to be.. but then.. it does look kind of fishy. I would like to give this doofus the benefit of the doubt, as in, surely, he can’t be THAT dumb that he would go about cheating on his girlfriend whilst the OTHER WOMAN documents it on the web.
What do you think? Is he cheating?

I’m skipping town today (actually I’m blogging this from the airport), but I could not NOT share my fashion find for this trip.
I went back to Merge Boutique, just to find a little something to wear to the plane. Okay, okay. I’m lying. I went in to find a dress for Confirmation – BUT I came out with THIS.
<3 <3 <3
It also has zippers in the back. Sadly, I don't feel like taking a selfie in the airport bathroom, otherwise you could see 'em!
Coming up next week, Merge is celebrating it's birthday with specials and TONS of new merch fresh from a show in Vegas.
Whether you’re looking for a fun new top or a party dress to hit up NG – Merge has it all. Don’t forget nothing in the store is over $50.. so feel free to get crazy while I’m gone.
Find Merge on Harvey in the Burke Outlet center right next to Al’s Formal Wear.
Happy shopping!
