Kiss of Death dress by One Teaspoon, DIY Glitter 99 by Jeffrey Campbell, vintage purse

My birthday week/weekend always ends up being one of the busiest ones of the year, in good and bad ways alike. It marks the coming of finals in the following days, but fortunately I got all my studying out of the way so I could enjoy the more pleasant festivities. I was invited to check out this year’s annual Snowball, and it turned out to be everything I expected and more! The slew of photos above include the beautiful courtyard-like location, and the gifting suite, which was basically an open bar stocked with beautiful makeup palettes, hair products, gift cards, and Essie nail polish—as you can see I couldn’t wait to slick it on. Not pictured is the sequin dress I snagged courtesy of Lulu’s, but you’ll hear more from this later. The night concluded with drinks and jam/recording sesh with friends in the studio.


As for the dress I wore, I picked it out from Beginning Boutique because I couldn’t fathom a better night to slip into a new One Teaspoon dress than on my birthday! I paired it with white Jeffrey Campbell 99s that I DIYed after realizing I wasn’t wearing them nearly enough as I wanted. Gold glitter was the perfect fix. Lastly, I got a new camera for my birthday to replace my older one (thanks, boo!) so you’ll see more frequent updates on my shop (I currently have two laundry bags that need to come up) and no more waiting in line at CVS for my one-hour photos.
