About once a month, Hope, Jamillah, Kim, Kristine, Luz, Alex and I try to get together for what Alex has nicknamed the “Blogger Social Club.” Basically, it’s a chance for us to get together (usually in a happy hour setting) and hang out/catch up on each other’s lives. When I realized that my two-year blogiversary was quickly approaching, I called a meeting of the Blogger Social Club so we could have a little celebration! :)

Even though it was hot and sticky that day, Hope, Alex, and I arrived a little early so that we could take outfit pictures in Tompkins Square Park, right across the street from Yuca Bar.  As you can see above, we can get a little silly when we’re in front of the camera :) Also, although I don’t often wear my hair up, it was really too hot that day not to, so I decided to try out this quick and easy braided hairstyle.

Did you guys have a good weekend? Did anyone watch the Olympics Opening Ceremony on Friday? I found the whole thing pretty bizarre, but still interesting at points! I’m a huge Olympics nut, so once I figured out that I can live stream events on my computer (which is perfect, since I don’t own a TV), I’ve pretty much been watching the Olympics coverage nonstop. I also love that they have replays available too, so that I can catch up on events that happened in the middle of the night (EST).  I did tear myself away from the Olympics for a few hours on Saturday to meet up with Alex and Kim in the East Village.  It was Kim’s blogiversay on Friday, so we celebrated with brunch and a little bit of thrifting :)

Tomorrow’s the end of month which means it’s time for the Correspondence Club round-up! Check back tomorrow to see what was sent/received and if you’d like to join the Correspondence Club for August, you still have until tomorrow to send me your information!
