"For The Times They Are A-Changin'"

Some of you loyal readers may have noticed that we have made some changes to the blog and we hope that you love them as much as we do! The image, isn't the only thing that is changing though and we wanted to give you a little update on what we have been pondering the past few months during our blogging silence.
When we started this blog we knew we wanted it to be fun and both saw it as a learning experience and stepping stone to "SOMETHING", we just didn't know what. As we blogged together and had many conversations about where our hearts were and what really drove us as people and we discovered a lot about ourselves. All of this pondering led us to take a break from the blog to regroup and refocus, finding direction together and individually. 

We have decided to redirect this blog to follow a fabulous journey that Stephanie is 
currently on as she follows her passion of designing clothes. Abbey has started a blog of her own that chronicles the stylish life of mommy-hood in the city which you should check out here, and will continue to do guest blogs on topics such as "Growing Out Your Hair", sassy wear for new moms and her favorite WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? pieces. 

Now don't fret, we will still have fabulous posts with our honest opinions on the current trends. And of course welcome your suggestions as to what to review or style. Only there will be more about the clothing industry, fashion projections <can we get a Hurrah! for that one> and an inside peek at what drives a designer. 
We hope you will continue to follow us as we follow our hearts.

Stylish Blogger Award!

We are thrilled to be honored with the "Stylish Blogger Award" from Alison of alisonandjustin. We have truly enjoyed following her blog lately.




The Rules are:
1. Thank and link back to the person who gave you the award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Award to recently discovered bloggers.
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about this award.

It is always fun to come up with things to share about yourself that might be interesting to other people.  We really enjoyed putting this list together!

1.  We were friends almost instantly and both remember the moment we met, 
and hope we never forget that interaction.

2. We love to hear about peoples meals. As in, when we talk to you on the phone and hear you went to lunch, we truly would love to hear all about your meal. What did you have, was it delicious, how was the dressing?  It allows us to visualize it and as foodies we almost enjoy the meal without consuming a bite!

3. We have a major popcorn obsession. Stephanie's family makes it every Sunday and growing up we would always take it to her grandparents house. And yes, there is a secret recipe and it is DELICIOUS! Ask any of our friends, they will attest to its magical properties. It has become a regular at many gatherings.
Almost gone!
4. Our parents had a pact and it resulted in no PG-13 movies until we were almost in college. The result was that we watched many black and white movies. 

5. Our favorite treat for movie night was a very large jar of pickles. We would eat them until our tongues peeled off in pieces. Only then did we consider switch snacks.

6. Our most upsetting car accident happened together, while initiating the next group of incoming cheerleaders, at 4:00 O'Dark in the morning. Traumatizing. We were picked up by Stephanie's dad who proceeded to wear a banana nose the entire ride home, to lift the mood and remind us that things like this just happen in life sometimes. When they do, don a banana nose and wave at everyone you pass by.

7. Our friendship has been tested and we know that regardless of the distance between us that when we come to the end of our lives, we will still be friends. 

Some of our favorite new bloggers that we would like to give this award to are:
Tiny Happy Things
Elizabeth Perry Blog
Young and Fabulous
