The 4-year-old designer

Most little girls have their dreams set on being a princess or the next president but a 4 year old girl nicknamed Mayhem has different plans. She, along with her mother, create full outfits created from paper and tape and what they come up with is gold. Watch out Tim Gunn, there is a new project runway contestant coming.

Sochi 2014

Is it just me or are you all loving the Olympics? I am totally in love with coming home everyday and watching all of these amazing people doing amazing things with people from around the world. I swear this happens for every Olympics but I just get this huge sense of American pride and it makes me want to be a better person at what I do... Is that weird? Anyways, what are y'all enjoying watching? I'm loving all of the skiing, ice skating and the luge. I also love watching new athletes do their thing, my favorite people are below:

Gracie Gold- Figure Skating

Tucker West- Luge

Nick Goepper- Skiing

Meryl Davis and Charlie White- Ice Dancing
Update as of Feb. 17: Meryl and Charlie won the first ever Ice dancing gold medal for the USA!


p.s. 
I am in love with the American opening ceremony outfits:
Where can I get one of those sweaters?!

How do you read?

I found this little test not only cool but actually pretty helpful. It is a experiment that tests you speed of reading and then gives you a time estimate on how long it would take to read certain books! It then gives you your national US average for reading. I thought that it was interesting so I thought I'd pass it along!
Give it a try below!

Coconut Oil

One of my more beauty inclined friends recommended coconut oil as a organic moisturizer and to use on hair, along with many other uses. I decided to pop out to the local Whole Foods and give this magic a try. I'm not going to lie, my first impression was it was too oily for me, but when I woke up the next morning, I couldn't stop stroking my hand. This stuff can be used for everything, and I mean everything. Throw it in your food in replacement for vegetable oil or butter, use it to take off your make-up, moisturize with it, put it in your hair for a conditioner/ strengthener, this one product can literally do wonders and I'm sure one little Pintrest search can leave you dozens of things to do. I recommend that you check this little beauty out!
