Insta-Envy

via Amy's instagram account

Sometimes I get lost in Instagram. I could spend hours perusing through my favorite blogger's accounts. A few months ago I discovered Amy Stone's Instagram through Carley and Mackenzie, and I have never seen such a beautifully themed Instagram account - from blues to stripes to hydrangeas and peonies - some of my favorite things! I'm just waiting for the day I somehow become this talented.

Oh, and she also runs social media for Gap. Dream job.

This is her, and she's perfect.

Who are some of your favorite Instagram accounts?

The Big Love Ball

Just two weeks separates me from working life, so what do I do before then? Spend most of my time watching Netflix and perusing social media, of course. My newest discovery has been the Big Love Ball via Instagram. The snapshots of course stood out the most. From posing with a room full of balls to rolling a ball across the street, I had no idea what this was all about. At first I thought this was one of the most bizarre things I've ever seen, but I kept reading:

Wendy Williams Watt, a Canadian designer, created the Big Love Ball to spark dialogue within her Vancouver community and invitation to make a moment.

"Our intention is to send Big Love Balls to places we’ve never been, events we cannot attend and to friends we’ve never met. We want to charm, disarm, honor and i n c l u d e the many people in the world who celebrate LOVE."

This is so neat, amiright? It's so simple, yet makes an amazing statement. I learned that you can actually buy one of these inflatable balls (small, large, and mini!), so I'm already trying to figure out how to use one myself!

Glancing Back

It's been one whirlwind of a summer! I graduated, said goodbye to old friends, made some new, and gallivanted around Athens one last time before my journey into adulthood in Atlanta! Can't wait to see what's in store next!
