Sweet Seven

Here are seven things that I've recently found sweet!  

1. Blank Space 

Taylor Swift does it again. She's a only year older than I am, but yet she's been on the cover of TIME. I don't necessarily agree with her decision to pull her records from Spotify, but I respect her rights as an artist. Also I think that pulling her albums from the streaming service may have back fired a bit. The story gave Spotify a lot of press and surely, more subscribers. Back to the song... I love the music video. Have you seen it? It's Gatsby themed and there are some fun pop culture references thrown in (Elin Woods beating up Tiger's car with a golf club). Taylor has always been beautiful but after watching this video, I really want to hit them gym. Or maybe go on Taylor's diet-coke diet. Cheers, Taylor! 

Here's the video:

2. The Skimm

This email subscription service was made for me. I love being kept up-to-date with current events but I don't always have time to sit down and read news articles every morning. It reminds me a lot of the headline reports that I would write for the candidate when I worked on a national political campaign. Sounds glamorous, right? Ok, it kinda was... This service gives you all the important facts and developments on the top national news stories. My sister described the writing as "snarky and college educated." Love. It.

3. Online Shopping

Online shopping has been "bae" this holiday season. I am a sucker for holiday sales and "free shipping." What was that, online boutique? I need to spend $35.85 more to get free shipping? Don't mind if I do. Talk about justification. 

4. The Mindy Project

I'm not sure how I got so behind the curb on this TV show but it's on it's third season. Not that I mind because I love a good hulu binge. I am obsessed with all things Mindy Kaling. She's so fabulous. My sister and I decided that Mindy is our spirit animal. If Kaitlyn and I were combined into one person it would be the character Mindy Lahiri. If you haven't watched it then you need to. Two and a half season to binge over this holiday break. You're welcome. Also on her latest episode, one of Mindy's Christmas decorations is a Wreath Witherspoon. Dying. 

 

5. Texas Pralines 

Have you ever had Texas Pralines? They're like pralines but magical chewy.  

Here is a recipe for them that I found on Pinterest.

6. House Of DVF

My new guilty pleasure. I'm not sure if the premiere wasn't well advertised or if I don't watch E! anymore because I am not a KardashiFAN, so I didn't know about this show. I honestly thought that "E!" had changed to "K!" House of DVF is refreshing. I started watching around the 3rd episode (OnDemand of course, does anyone intentionally watch regular cable anymore?) The finale is this weekend. The whole show is about Diane Von Furstenberg's quest to find her next brand ambassador. I honestly disliked most of her contestants but the final three aren't so bad. From the beginning, I found myself wanting the blogger, Keir Mellour to win. She's a typical "fashun" blogger but is definitely the contestant that I can see myself getting cocktails along with most. There's still time to binge watch the entire season OnDemand before the finale on Sunday Night at 10. 

7. Response to my Jewelry 

Last semester, I started playing around with some jewelry making techniques. I have received  overwhelming support from friends, followers, and family about my designs. I am excited for what 2015 has in store for Frazier Lynn. I want to publicly thank all of you for your continued support. I can't wait to share future designs. Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life. 

Visit my webstore at www.FrazierLynn.com for my current musing / designs. (It's a work in progress so please do not judge too harshly)

Ciao For Now,
