Bridal Shower? Check! Bachelorette Party? CHECK! And I simply can't believe it. I'm sitting here typing this up, freshly off the plane and starting a firm bronchitis treatment because of course I can't plan a trip of this magnitude without some serious consequences, but I digress...

Let's talk about concerts for a minute, shall we? It has gotten truly ridiculously expensive to go see your favorite musician lately. Ticket prices + venue fees + parking/Uber cost + refreshments/food at the venue + artist memorabilia = where do I file for bankruptcy?! It's a lot. When I was little, of course I'd …

Up until last year, I wasn't interested in Game of Thrones or any of the events that came to be on the show (#RedWedding), but with all the social media ruckus about Mr. Jon Snow, it peaked my curiosity just enough to watch the first episode of season 6 to find out whether or not …
