The Last Ten Things I Bought



I wanted to do a bit of a different post today. I love reading Forbes. One of the ongoing series that they have is called "The Last Ten Things I Bought". I think they are really fun to read because you get a glimpse into other's lives based on their purchases. I wanted to do my own, so here are the last ten things I bought- 20 year old college student edition!

1. Staples $12.31

I bought a shipping box to ship a textbook I sold on Amazon and also some colorful flair pens to take notes with. 

2. Ulta $85.38

This purchase included my every seven to eight week haircut (my hair does not need cutting as often as other's do) and some Redken styling products. 

3. Caribou Coffee $6.55

I needed a pick me up in between classes...

4. Burgers Bagels $2.68

Another pick me up needed.

5. Kate Spade $19.31

I was wondering around the mall and found myself in Kate Spade. I found this adorable tumbler for my mom that I bought to give her for Christmas. 

6. Holiday Gas Station $33.04

My biweekly tank of premium gas.

7. Saks off Fifth $79.99

I purchased a beautiful sweater for my Aunt. 

8. Target $12.75

Shampoo, conditioner and ice cream

9. Jamba Juice $4.42

Yet another pick me up. 

10. Mulberry's Garment Care $6.02

Dry cleaning (they are the best around in Minnesota! Highly recommended!)

Favorite Purchase: Getting my hair done. I always feel like a goddess walking out of Ulta after my hair cut.

Regrets: The amount of snacks/ coffee I purchase when I am at school. I need to start bringing more snacks to class with me!

I hope you enjoyed this post,

My Favorite Blogs to Read

Hi all! Sorry I have not posted in awhile! School has been consuming my life. Today I wanted to write about some of my favorite blogs to read that not only are fun to read everyday, but inspire me as a blogger. 



1. Summer Wind

This blog was the reason I started Navy and White Prep. Sydney, the blogger writes about fun topics and has a great fashion sense. I love the layout of her blog. It is so cute and simple. 

2. The College Prepster.

I love this blog as well! Carly writes about life topics that relate to being a young adult. I think she is so inspiring because she is a young entrepreneur who does what she loves. 


3. Classy Girls Wear Pearls

I wish I would steal everything in Sarah's closet! This woman has AMAZING style. She posts beautiful pictures of her outfits and adventures with her fiancĂ©, the ultimate prepster- Kiel James Patrick. These two are just too cute together. 

What are your favorite blogs to read?

Best,
