The Great Smokey Mountains

Hello there and happy Wednesday! I hope you had a wonderful holiday celebrating New Years!

We are officially back from our week away in the mountains and have definitely gotten back into the swing of things. Being able to wake up whenever I pleased was quite nice and also to staying in my pjs until 11 AM was splendid! Despite a lack of wifi or phone service in general while at the cabin, we had a great vacation with family.

We spent our time shopping around Gatlinburg, took a trek around Cades Cove and stuffed ourselves silly with food. Did I mention there was a hot tub conveniently located outside of our bedroom window? There may or may not have been a couple of midnight dips in that beautiful thing. Thanks definitely goes to my in-laws and Adam's Aunt and Uncle for blessing us with the cabin, transportation and food!

I have so so many photos on my phone of our outings like tasting Smokey Mountain Moonshine or a late night tour of the aquarium but sadly they are all a little dark, grainy and wonky (as you will see below). 

Here are a couple that I posted on my Instagram:

The respite was much needed but I've got to say that my bed was definitely calling our names. 

It was a bunk bed...did I mention that? Oh the countless times we hit our heads in the middle of the night!

O.U.C.H.

With that said, we had a blast and are ready for 2013. I have a feeling it's going to be a good one!

I'll talk to you soon...

Zooey and Joseph Duet

A sweet New Years Eve send off from two of my favorite people, Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt! Granted they are my favorite people from afar as I don't know them personally but stalk all of the projects they are involved in.

Enjoy these amazing artists...

Bon Nuit, I'll talk to you next year!

Happy New Years Eve, everyone!

This year has come to an end and I am excited to share with you something exciting for this new year.

 There has been a project that I was recently asked to be apart of that I'm excited to let you in on!

As I'm sure know I've been active on YouTube in documenting my life with Vlogmas as well as monthly favorites and Birchbox. 

Having (sheepishly) put myself out there in to the YT community, a beautiful girl reached out to me so kindly and encouraged me in my videos, Andrea!

While Andrea is beauty guru on YT, BeUBeautyChannel, she decided to start a collaboration channel focusing on beauty, fashion and lifestyle. She was nice enough to let me be apart of this new project.

If you are interested in getting to know Andrea better, visit her blog, According To Andrea, where she updates often with fun pictures to go along with each post.

Now back to SheStyledIt!

The collaboration consists of 4 girls: myself, Andrea of Indiana, Karina of Texas and Elly of England. Every week we will have one topic that all of us will make a video of expanding our points of view on that topic. This weeks videos are all about our outfits and makeup of the evening for New Years Eve.

You can view my video, here:

Please visit our channel and check back every Thursday to see what I have to say for BetsyStyledIt.

Have a lovely New Years Eve!
