I’ve definitely got birthdays on the brain. Weirdly enough, most of my friends and family members’ birthdays fall in the autumn months. Which means I’m scouring my fave online shops and local boutiques for the perfect gift throughout all of October. (And I just cleaned out the Cute Birthday Card section at Target last night—I swear.)

 

A no-fail gift idea I keep coming back to is the ever-useful notebook—perfect for jotting, plotting and, of course, doodling. It’s an ideal gift for friends and fam alike—I’ll wrap it up with a cool clutch for my artsy BFF, with a set of pretty pens for my writer sis and with a cozy scarf for my on-the-go mom. With its perky, punchy polka-dot cover, it’s a total no-brainer. (Maybe I’ll pick up an extra one for me, too—shh!)

MOD! MOD! MOD!
One of my oldest friends is becoming a bit of a brat. She is always saying mean things about her mom, and getting her friends to say them too.She also complains about to her friends to me a lot. She is also a little bit selfish, rude, does things she shouldn't (nothing really bad though) and says mean things. Should I tell someone, or ignore her, or do something else? Thanks.

 

Hey girl! I'm sorry, that's no fun at all. If I were you, I'd take a break from this friend. I'm not saying stop being friends, just hang out with other people more and her less for a couple weeks! Then come back to the sitch with fresh eyes so you can properly reevaluate the friendship. Sometimes we get a bit sick of our friends, and we just need a break!

im going to football game tonight and its going
to be freezing. what should i wear to be cute and
warm????

 

hey girl! ooh, how fun! I think you should definitely wear jeans. If you have any colored ones, that'd be super cute! Then make sure to layer it up on top. A shirt, a sweater, a jacket! Then, add a fun scarf, and a hat if it's REALLY cold or windy. Don't forget cute boots to finish it off!

P.S. you don't need to post your q twice, sometimes it just takes us a bit to answer. sorry about that!

xoxo
