Hey to anyone that still checks in on this from time to time!
I'm sorry for being so MIA, I've had two very busy months, and lots of scrub wearing and minimal shopping so I unfortunately haven't had much to report on the fashion front.
As some of you may know, I am a medical student, and am in my last year currently. I have been doing a couple of rotations in my field of interest, general surgery, and that doesn't leave a whole lot of time for much else other than sleep and studying. While the last few months have been tiring, I've really been loving what I'm doing, which helps to confirm that I'm headed down the right path! I just submitted my applications for residency yesterday, so the process has officially begun... Wish me luck!
Things should be a little lighter for the next while and I should be able to start posting more regularly again! At least that's my goal :-) and I can't think of a better time to get back into it. Fall is nearly here and that is my favorite season for dressing! I love layering and boots, so there should be more to come in the following weeks in the way of outfit posts, picks, and maybe even some other surprises thrown in here and there, who knows!
Thanks to those of you that have stuck with me. Look for a post in about a week! I should have some things to report.
XOXO Jennifer

Some news!
Hey everyone!
I've run off and on for years, but recently decided to make my running more consistent, and with that in mind, I decided to train for and run a half marathon, the Disney Princess Half Marathon to be exact. In keeping with that, I decided that instead of bore you all about something completely unrelated to this blog's premise, I would create a new blog that will strictly focus on running! Head on over and check out my new blog See Jen Run for more information about my decision to do this, and to hear about my journey as it unfolds!
Don't worry, I will still be trying to make posts on here as often as possible. I actually have some outfit shots and pictures to post from a recent trip to Toronto last weekend, so keep your eyes open for it! Probably won't be for a few days as this weekend is boyfriend's birthday, and his parents are coming to town tonight.
Have a great weekend!

Summery Fun
Hey everyone!
The weather here is absolutely beautiful today! I'm so glad that its finally turning towards summer again in terms of the weather. It got pretty chilly after the warm spell we had back in march. Just wanted to share today's OOTD (looks like these "weekly" posts have turned into monthly, lol, I'll try to do something about that!). I recently got this splurge of a scarf at J.Crew. Its one of the Drakes London paisley scarves they have currently. I fell in love with the pattern and the colors, but egads... the price... In the end, I decided, I needed it, and will wear it for years to come. I highly recommend this scarf, the pattern and color are everything I had hope. The fabric itself is nothing spectacular, has a very cottony feel to it and is not silky at all, but I love it. This was the first wear of many. I would highly recommend it, but if you can get it on promo with a nice discount, it would be even more worth it. Today I decided to pair it with my striped boatneck shirt, a pair of jeans, and some older jcrew suede ballet flats back from a few years ago when my jcrew frenzy began. I love bright colors for this spring, especially yellow. What are your favorites for this spring?

Rainy weekend...
Hey everyone!
Hope you are all doing well! I had a nice weekend with my parents who came to visit. The weather was pretty crappy unfortunately, but we still found ways to have a good time.
Thursday was my birthday so Friday we did a little shopping at the local j.crew! Just what I needed! Lol but seriously, I feel like I can never have too much stuff from there. I've been really into accessories lately, so I got some great little bangles and the like! Channeling my inspiration from Blair over at Atlantic-pacific these days... I also picked up a few other things while I was there too. Didn't snap any pictures, but I'll see if I can't try some stuff on for a few reviews in the next week or so. I did finally add the navy schoolboy blazer to my wardrobe! How have I gone this long without one?? Seriously though...
On saturday we spent some time at Niagara falls, walking around the touristy area in Canada which I had never been to. It was quite a hoot! So overly cheesy, but it was a lot of fun. And I can totally see why people say the view of the falls from the Canadian side is better than the American side. So much prettier! If you've never done it, I highly recommend it.
I've started yet another new rotation, family med, but I can't wait for next year to start. We registered for our "classes" for this fall, and I got the schedule I wanted so I'm really looking forward to it! As i mentioned previously, i have fully decided on general surgery which is exhilarating and scary all at the same time. I have found some awesome mentors so far though, so I'm very excited for the roller coaster ride that a general surgery residency will bring. This will be a big year for me, and I'm looking forward to what the future will bring. I'm considering starting a separate blog to discuss applying and residency, so that this one can be more devoted to my shopping obsession lol. So stay tuned if you're interesting in reading that!

iPad case?!
Hey everyone!
So I am greatly enjoying my new
iPad, only problem is, I can't seem to figure out what case to get! Right now
I've just stolen my boyfriends smartcover, but I want something else to fully protect it. For the nook my go to case maker was Kate spade. I just can't seem to find anything I love! So I need your help... Below I've pictured some that have caught my eye, but nothing Ive loved enough to pull the trigger. I want something both cute and fashionable, and something practical and very protective. I've seen a lot of sleeve style ones, but I don't want to have to take it out all the time. Something what opens like a book but still holds it is what I really want but I'm at a bit of a loss... I also dont want something too seasonal or too trendy that ill want to exchange for something new in a few months... What do you think of any of these, and any other suggestions of cases or where to look?? Thanks everyone!

Happy St. Patty's day!
Happy St. Patty's day to you all! I'm most likely having a quiet evening at home playing with my iPad that I got yesterday :-) but I did dress up in green today for the holiday! Got my j.crew green denim pants on and Essie mint green nail polish! The iPad was an early birthday present from my boyfriend and his parents. I'm glad I got it early though, he got one too and pulled it out last night, I was a little jealous! He has been insisting i wasnt getting one, just his old first generation one. He then handed it to me and told me to see the picture he made, and it said happy birthday, yours is waiting for you downstairs :-) so exciting!!
In other news, there have been some big changes to my hair! I cut it and dyed it much much darker last weekend. It's been taking some getting used to, but I love it!
Hope you all have a great St. Patty's day!

Tea Time
Hey everyone!
Just wanted to share a few pictures from a birthday party High tea I went to this weekend at the Prince of Wales hotel at Niagara on the Lake. If you've never been to one of these I highly recommend it, was so much fun! I wore my blue Zara dress with a j.crew sweater jacket from a few years back, with layered pearls and plenty of hold sparkly arm candy :-)
