March Favorites!

Posted by Meghan at 7:39 PM
Sorry I haven't been active lately! March and April are really crunch time for me at school, so I've been lax on the Internet to try and stay focused.

But, it's time again for my favorites! Some of these I'm sure you could guess, but I'm going to go ahead and say that most of them are movie/TV show related. Oops.

First, we've got my favorite TV show, Once Upon a Time.

i mean, look at these cuties! (captain swan)

It came back on March 1st, and I cannot explain to you all how excited I was. This second half of the season has been crazy so far, but I think it's going to be interesting! I'm in love with Captain Swan (Emma Swan and Captain Hook--yes, that is who that beautiful man is!), and as you can see above, they are literally relationship goals. Can't wait to see the rest of the season!

Next, I've been obsessed with Cinderella!

Seriously, if you haven't gone to see this yet, please go. It's such a beautiful film, directed by Kenneth Branagh (one of my favorite directors and actors, for that matter!), and though it retells a tale told many times over, it's such a wonderful spin on it. There's a lot more fleshing out of the Prince (who is gorgeous, by the way), and we learn more about Lady Tremaine as well--all without taking away from Cinderella! It's captivating, and if you have a chance, please go see it.

Also, I've been weirdly obsessed with finding this dress:

Seriously. I have been looking for this dress since early March, when I first saw it. I didn't buy it immediately, but I wish I had! I went back to school and figured I'd just buy it at the Target near my campus. Well, they only had one dress left, not in my size--which, I should have figured, because I live in a beach town, and this is the perfect sunny-weather-nice-dinner type of dress! So, I checked every single time I went, just to make sure, and when I went home last weekend to see my sister's musical, I happened to pop into Target, and voila! It was right there, waiting for me! I tried it on, fell in love, and bought it right then! I'm excited to go out in it, since it'll be nice for dinners, or even just going downtown for an afternoon! Wow, that story got long. Whoops.

Next, I've been in love with little notebooks recently.

Now, this one is a bit odd, I know. I've been so busy lately, and having to run all around campus is hard when you're carrying a laptop or a load of books in your bag--it's so much easier to just carry a small backpack and some small notebooks! I've got some specifically for research and the like, but I've got some sketchbooks as well that I carry around for that awkward time between classes. Plus, these sketchbooks from Target are adorable!

And, finally, I've been slowly getting into tea.

I'm certainly not a coffee person, but I was recently introduced to tea, and I think I'm starting to like it! I love dipping wafers into it (yuuuuuum!), and my favorite brand/type right now is Twining's Earl Grey. I think it's probably the closest to English tea, and as the little packet above says at the bottom, it's not very intense! It's become harder to drink now that it's getting warmer, but I think in the fall, I'll try to get into it again and hopefully stick with it.

Anyways, those are the five things that have my attention this month! Hopefully I'll be able to put together a Summer lookbook for you guys in the near future--for now, enjoy the warm(ish) weather!
