Lucky Girl

A few happy things to share with you today. First, I'm in the current issue of Lucky Magazine! A few weeks ago I got an email from an editor at Lucky asking for this image and verifying my name and city, but I was never sure if or when it would be in the magazine. It's pretty exciting to see a photo from my blog in print! 
See the full post from that photo here. One of the most fun parts of blogging is never knowing what might be in that email inbox. Thank you Lucky! Below: of course I had to Instagram it.
Next, one of my favorite blog buddies, Sam from Style of Sam, is kicking off a new series featuring different bloggers. I'm the lucky first "prescription!" Sam is a seriously stylish pharmacist, and her creativity and graphic design skills, not to mention amazing wardrobe, will blow you away! Seriously, how cute is this idea?
See the rest of the post here, and keep a lookout next week for a guest post from Sam here on Lily Says Go!

This past weekend I went shopping with my mom, sister and niece Carolyn. A massive, and I mean MASSIVE (like department store size, two levels) new Forever 21 just opened at the Mall of America, and we popped in to check it out. The old F21 there was big too but always very unorganized and kind of gross. This new one is beautiful and amazing, I have to say. We just wandered through really fast, but I can't wait to go on my own and slowly pick my way though. :)

Anyway, I saw this awesome leopard coat and instantly fell in love. The price tag said $49.95, which is a little spendy for Forever 21 but I decided it was worth it. But at the register, one of those magical moments happened, and the guy announced my total: "$24.95 please." What!? Don't you LOVE when that happens? I was thrilled. Look for this spotted beauty in a post soon! 
And that wraps up this happy little post. Thank you so much to all my friends and family, and my blogger friends for your support and excitement, and for reading my blog! Love you guys!
