So much has happened since we landed in London Town. I don’t even know where to begin. Our hotel is fab, and we are in the best location with everything in walking distance. After not sleeping on the plane, we landed and decided to walk around. Our first stop was to find Diagon Alley. If…

I am writing this is at 1:15 AM LA time, but 9 AM London time. It’s official: I cannot sleep on planes. Lauren and Cammie are both conked out, peacefully sleeping, while I am listening to Adele, cursing my life and wondering why I did not pack my Ambien. It doesn’t help that our seats…

Hello and happy hunger games. Me, Lauren, and Cammie are currently inhaling an english breakfast to cure our Mahiki Hangover. I had absinthe and don’t want to talk about it.

(I wore flare jeans and wedges and felt very underdressed). Scene: People from work, or groups of people celebrating a birthday or…

Here is what I love about Chicago. The people are SO nice. You go into a store, and people genuinely want to help you. I got off the plane and was happy as a clam. Why? Because there was no humidity. My mom had to work as soon as we got to the Chi, so…
