This is 25.

-

So I celebrated my 25th birthday this past weekend! And WOW I feel old. One of my best friends and I were joking around about how certain things we were doing were such "this is 25" things. We kinda started listing things as the day went on and I was like, "why am I not putting this in a new blog post?" So here I am, listing 25 things that have happened in my 25th year that have just made me feel... twenty five.


1. Purchasing a special car pillow to help with your back.

2. Waking up early on a Saturday morning to go to a work out class instead of sleeping in.

3. Actually keeping plants alive. Real plants.

4. Having to get your car fixed 3 times in a month by yourself. Without your dad.

5. Cooking real meals that aren't just eggs or frozen hot dogs.

6. Finding house-cleaning therapeutic and getting excited to clean.

7. Taking a trip to visit a new fancy grocery store and being super excited.

8. When you can't stop thinking about your new sofa you ordered while hanging out with friends.

9. Shopping for new furniture and getting excited for the new furniture to arrive.

10. Being in bed by 9pm and feeling proud of the accomplishment.

11. Dyeing grey hairs. (I luv genetics)

12. Getting CVS ExtraBucks and being excited about it.

13. Organizing and downloading all your coupons before heading to the grocery store.

14. Not being able to function without 8 hours of sleep.

15. Going to a bar and leaving when it starts to get crowded.

16. Watching interior decorating/house renovation videos.

17. Having an extremely organized pinterest board of what you want your dream home to look like. (lol not kidding, check it out and follow me → https://www.pinterest.com/sarahtabraham/home/)

18. Having to stop yourself from purchasing home decor.

19. Giving skin care recommendations and having to emphasize the importance of SPF to people.

20. Getting more birthday messages on LinkedIn than on Facebook.

21. Stressing about retirement and investments.

22. Seeing your friends buy homes and buying housewarming gifts for them.

23. Buying a cute little car vacuum and unboxing it on Instagram. (@sarthellabra)

24. Having to create a spreadsheet to organize all your expenses and spending.

25. Realizing you are a fourth of the way to 100.

    When buying fitted bed sheets, ensure they have deep pockets to accommodate your mattress size. Look for high-quality materials like cotton or bamboo for comfort and durability. Check the thread count for a soft feel. Avoid sheets with " sonic corn dog " designs if you prefer a more classic or minimalist aesthetic.

New York City Guide: Taylor Swift Edition (With the walking path attached!)

-
Image
So my fiancé and I went to NYC during the weekend of the 1989 (Taylor's Version) release, so I thought it was only appropriate to plan a Taylor Swift-themed tour especially since 1989 has been referred to as the New York City album. Am I crazy? Yes. But was it fun? YES!!! I thought I could share our tour with you guys, if any Swifties ever want to do the same. And if you're going with a significant other who doesn't like Taylor Swift related activities, just lie and say you're going to some cool new spots to check out. I may or may not have done that. He may or may not have found out during the tour but it was too late to back out. Hehe 🙈 This is a walking guide and I made sure all the places were easy to navigate. I have two brain cells when it comes to directions, so if I can do it, you guys can do it too! 55 Franklin Street, New York, NY 10013 Significance: TS lived in the top floor condo. We started our tour in Tribeca. Super empty street, which makes sense why she

Olly Undeniable Beauty HSN Vitamin Review (with before and after photos!)

-

I have always had pretty clear skin. If I ever had breakouts, which was more frequent in college, I was able to eventually pinpoint what exactly caused it, and it would usually be linked to stress or a certain food. And it was usually like 2-3 breakouts, so nothing like super crazy. The breakout would happen, I would freak out for a second (probably post a snapchat about it 🙊), and then my skin would go back to normal. But in the past 5ish months, my skin has changed. The breakouts have been more regular and my skin isn't as smooth as it used to be. I have been trying to figure out why because there hasn't been any significant change in the products I use or the food I eat. Like I was going to post an updated skin care routine and then my skin went crazy and I scrapped the idea (for now) . But I was open to using some kind of supplement that would help improve my skin and hair.  Well, mostly my skin, but I wasn't opposed to hair growth. The vitamins I originally want

Easy 70s Halloween Costume

We made a girls trip to New Orleans and wanted to dress up for Halloween while we were there! But we didn't want to do anything super crazy or expensive, so we decided to go as hippies/70s girls. Or how most people will call it.... #BASIC. Where we got our stuff: Tie-dye shirts - Me and my friend Brandee went to Hobby Lobby and bought t-shirts and Tulip brand Tie Dye. Literally everything we bought was on sale and cheap, so highly suggest going to Hobby Lobby if you decide to make t-shirts! They also have 40% coupons on their website which works on pretty much anything that doesn't already have a discount. Glasses, Necklaces, Headbands - Ordered a set of four glasses, necklaces, and headbands from Amazon for $14.99 How we made the t-shirts: I might make a separate blog post on this because there are different ways to get the perfect tie-dye look and I'm still curious to find out how to get perfection because ours weren't perfect (close to perfect,
