overrated.

So…I kind of think New Year’s Eve is overrated.  Every year I spend it scampering around at the last minute trying to find something cool to do, and every year this mission is a failure and I end up doing something substantially less cool than the unrealistic visions I had conjured up in my head.  But, this year I don’t have any expectations, and I’m just excited that we’ll be hanging out with good friends Andy & Elisha (and a bunch of their friends too) and having good food, good drinks and fun times.

ALSO…I’m pretty excited about wearing this….
and a little of this…..
Sequins and feathers.  So “un-me”, but I figured that if I can’t pull it off on New Year’s Eve, when can I pull it off?  Exactly.
Hope you all have a lovely and safe New Year’s Eve!  And get excited… I’ll be doing my giveaway drawing on Friday….whenever I get myself out of bed that is…

  1. Happy new year may it be the best one yet =)
    I’m intending to let the night progress however it does and enjoy life as it comes 🙂

  2. hoping everything will be great!! wish you the best year ever Lauren.. 🙂

    xx

  3. Hence the reason I prefer a low key NYE spent at home with close friends. I always figure it doesn’t matter where you are, it’s who you’re with.

  4. Happy New Year Lauren… xoxo

  5. This is how I feel, too! Everyone makes such a big deal out of New Year’s that I feel like it should be amazing! And then I end up sitting on a couch somewhere while a bunch of friends scream and do “cider bombs” (since most of them don’t drink).

    This year is looking similar, but I’m going to try to make the best of it!

    That feather will look superduper cute in your hair!!

  6. I am the same way when it comes to sequins and feathers but I agree with you 100%. I tried to find the perfect flashy tank last night but I think all the Southern Belles in my area beat me too it the racks were empty.

    Happy New Year ! ox

  7. Okay Lauren,
    couple of things… i have to see the shirt you are wearing! you know why? because i am not really a sequin type of gal either, but when i went on my emotional shopping spree because of golds gym a couple of weeks ago, i found this sequined cardigan in forever 21. and i thought to myself, “hmmm. that is not something i would normally wear, but it would be perfect for new years.” so i bought it. or so i thought i did. and i went to show sean all my new clothes and the sweater was not in there. apparently i dropped it before i bought it, so he went back with me to get it because i just had to wear it on new years. so i am currently wearing it, but super duper tired and i don’t feel like doing anything tonight. i feel all blinging but don’t have the mood to match! anyway, it looks very similar to that little snippet of a picture and it just made me gigggle because we always have so many of the same things! haha, can’t wait to see the whole outfit!

    hope you are having a good day! Happy New Years Eve!

  8. ooooh sparkly! love it! x

  9. ooooooooooh
    i MUST see pictures of this outfit.

  10. We always do a low key NYE at home with friends too! I think it’s a little overrated as well! Love the sequins and the peacock feather! Happy New Year!

  11. Sounds like your New Year’s Eve will be much cooler than mine. So far I have no plans, which is pretty normal for me.

  12. i feel the same way about new years eve but this year we actually have plans that i’m looking forward to. a low key night with my brother and sister in law at their house (which is huge and beautiful), eating good food, drinking great wine and exchanging our christmas presents. low key plans are the best and it sounds like you’ll have a great time and look smokin too! can’t wait to see your pictures.

    happy new year my friend!

  13. I agree about New Years being overrated. Josh and I still don’t know what we’ll be doing at midnight. Maybe we’ll just stay at home and sleep. How lame!

    Make sure to take a picture of your outfit, because the pics looked totally rockin’!

  14. seems like our new year’s eves turn out the same! we’ll see what happens this year!

    good news is, not matter what you end up doing or not doing – you’ll look super hawt in sequins and feathers!!!

  15. I feel the exact same way about New Year’s. I never find something as cool as what I think should happen. Instead? I hang out with my fam and we play Wii or Play Station or something all night. Which is actually way more fun than some crazy party. So I love it.

    Hope your New Year’s is better than you expect it to be 🙂

  17. I always feel NYE is overrated. This year the plan is to go bowling w/ my friend Brandy and her extended fam who’s renting lanes at some alley. Hope they don’t mind that my average is like 50.

  18. I love the peacock feather!

    Have a great New Year. 🙂

  19. New Years doesn’t mean much to me either. Kind of a bore. But you are right, it makes a good excuse to hang with some good friends.
