So. I know that I've been utterly absent from the blog for the last few months. That is a completely different story (if lack of motivation and laziness is a story) for another time. But a friend shared this video with me over the weekend, and it's simply one of the best I've seen in a long time. Watching it over and over on a repetitious cycle makes me inexplicably happy. And I hope it does the same for you.*</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Enjoy!</div>

Super exciting update, guys: I'm still adjusting to the new job, and have still been utterly ignoring the blogging world. So again I must confess that I don't have a favorite from the last link up. <i>For shame.</i></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But here's the good news: The weather is (finally, finally, <i>thank the lawd</i>, FINALLY!) beginning to warm up a bit, which will go a long way in letting me convince myself that standing outside without a coat isn't such a bad idea anymore. So, here are some promises I may or may not fulfill to get back on track with some brand spanky new posts soon!</div>
<br />
Happy Friday!<br />

This week I started a new job and honestly haven't been very active in the blogosphere.<br />
Please bear with me as I adjust to my new schedule as a <a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2012/06/working-girl.html" target="_blank">working girl</a>.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I don't know about you, but whenever I get back from a vacation, I seem to have mysteriously gained 5 or 6 pounds. I'm just so busy eating whatever I want, whenever I want, that I'm lucky if I bother to fit one or two workouts in during my time away. Plus, you know, I'm quite busy lying on the beach, or sitting at the beach, or eating at the beach...you know, lots of varied activities. Ok, so I do a whole not of nothing on vacation. Mysterious vacation weight-gain solved.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, naturally I was stoked when <a href="http://marker.ly/b/fittea0231/10669/97" target="_blank">FitTea</a> approached me to try their 14-day detox. It came at the perfect time; right after I got back from vacation and had a few of those <i>I had lots of fun!</i> pounds<i> </i>to shed. Plus, their tag line is "Give us a few weeks and we'll give you a new waistline." They were speaking my language. Here's the low down. FitTea is an all-natural tea composed of organic green tea, oolong wu yi, rooibos, ginger, pomegranate, guarana, birch, stevia, corn (there are actual kernels in there!), and honey powder. It promises to boost the immune system, promote fat burning, aide in digestion, give you energy, and suppress appetite; plus it even has antioxidants and antimicrobial properties. I decided I could use all of the above, and thus began my two week #FitTeaDetox. <br />

<u style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</u></div>
The instructions say to drink a cup of tea each morning or before a workout. It didn't clarify if the tea should be drunk with breakfast or alone, and since I am not one for whom a cup of tea constitutes a meal, I had the tea with my breakfast each morning. After eating whatever I wanted and not bothering to work it off for a couple weeks, I slowly got back into the habit of incorporating produce into my diet, and exercising most days.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</span></div>
When I had the tea alongside a simple breakfast of Grape Nuts with raisins and almond milk, I didn't get hungry again for over 3 hours. (Normally if I eat just one bowl of cereal I'm hungry after about 30 minutes). So, I would say it certainly worked as an appetite suppressant. My waistline, however, is inconclusive. By day four I was down 3 pounds and 1% body fat, which is the lowest it's been in years. But a few days later, I was back to my normal weight. Some days I weighed a pound more, some days less. But my body fat percentage went right back to what it normally is, and stayed around that number for the rest of the time. <br />

As an appetite suppressant, <a href="http://marker.ly/b/fittea0231/10669/97" target="_blank">this tea</a> works. But as far as weight loss, my results are inconclusive. I can't say with certainty that the tea helped me to lose weight or any inches off my waistline. The tea has a slight lemony flavor that I personally didn't love - I just have a strange association between hot lemon anything and lemon flavored Theraflu, but my boyfriend tried some and he <i>loved </i>it.<br />

If I enjoyed the flavor of the tea, I would certainly continue drinking it every single morning, for the simple fact that it helps me to feel fuller longer, and also, this stuff is healthy. I can only imagine that with continued use, I'd lose a few pounds in the long run, and I don't doubt that all of the antioxidants would strengthen my immune system. But sadly, Theraflu really did a number on my psyche, and now all things warm and lemony make me <a href="http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/ew.gif" target="_blank">be like</a>. If it didn't kick my colds' butts on a regular basis, I'd be pretty upset with its creators for giving it such an icky flavor*. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
*Just for clarification. FitTea doesn't taste like Theraflu...it's so much better and much less intense. It's just that I've had Theraflu so many times, it just makes me want to stick my tongue out whenever something that even reminds me of it is in my presence. But I'm sure you're a much more mature person than I.<br />

My favorite look this week comes from Jessica at <a href="http://www.thejpetite.com/" target="_blank">j petite</a> because while I'm sitting here in -10° weather, she's doing this. And I could certainly use a dose of spring right about now, even if it's just a little daydream sparked by a stylish blogger in a warmer part of the country.</div>

...when you don't need to be reminded to show affection just one day of the year,<br />
because you act like <span style="font-size: large;">every day is Valentine's Day</span>.<br />
<br />
And after almost 8 years together, it's still kind of awesome to hear the words<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I love you </span>every single day<br />
(especially when I'm feeling about as pretty as I look in that photo).<br />

I am all about this cute, cozy winter outfit from <a href="http://www.beauty101bylisa.com/2015/02/linkupwithlisa-winter-shorts.html" target="_blank">Beauty 101 by Lisa</a>. The shorts, the sweater, the blanket scarf, and that adorable ballerina bun are all doing it for me this week. And now I'm inspired to rock some winter shorts for myself, (even though the intelligent part of my brain is screaming at me not to as it's reading a forecast of 5° days for the next week and a half).</div>

You can't see it under my <a href="http://www.shopstyle.com/action/loadRetailerProductPage?id=469175482&pid=uid921-3287339-16" target="_blank">chambray</a>, but I assure you there's a cute dress under there.With faux-leather sleeves and everything....ok, <i>just</i> faux-leather sleeves, but still. It's a shame the weather is still like <a href="http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/frz.gif" target="_blank">this</a>, otherwise I wouldn't have had to cover it up with a thin denim shirt for warmth (which you can clearly see by the rosy red glow of my nose, is doing quite the bang-up job.) Thankfully fleece-lined tights are a thing, because while my entire upper body was freezing taking these pictures, I can't say that my legs did much complaining. Not nearly as much as my face did. And in this <a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2015/02/and-grumpy-groundhog-day-to-you.html" target="_blank">winter that doesn't want to end</a>, a couple warm extremities are something to be grateful for.<br />

Look at this lady, isn't she just gorgeous? I can't say enough good things about <a href="http://stylediarybyosy.blogspot.com/2015/01/naturally-chic-in-black-and-white.html" target="_blank">Osy's</a> outfit this week. Her styling is impeccable (and <i>so</i> clever - her top is really a dress!), her hair is amazing, and that bright red lip pops so beautifully against the graphic black and white. Can I just be her for a day?</div>

Oh, deer indeed. It's been....well, I don't even actually know how long it's been since I've done an outfit post. I blame it on the winter (too cold!) and the holidays (busy busy busy), but mostly it's just the fact that I've been fortunate enough to take 4 vacations in the last 4 months*. SO much on that coming soon.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I wore this around Christmastime, which explains the giant reindeer on my shirt. Though truth be told, I'd rock this reindeer any time of year. Inspired by <a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2014/12/favorite-fashion-friday-74.html" target="_blank">Megan</a>, who I featured in the Favorite Fashion Friday link-up back in December, I decided to fancy up my reindeer a little bit with a blazer, too. I must admit, though, Megan's outfit, with her camel-colored blazer and bright scarf, just pops way more than my version. Camel and reindeer get along splendidly. Who would have thought?<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
*<i><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">This is what happens when you don't go anywhere all year and then have to use up all the vacation days before January comes around. It's kind of surreal to travel someplace new every month...I recommend it.</span></i></div>

After receiving some very disappointing news from a <a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2015/02/and-grumpy-groundhog-day-to-you.html" target="_blank">groundhog</a> yesterday, I have some good news for you today. It's giveaway day (!!!) This week's giveaway is sponsored by Bonny&Blythe, a cruelty-free health and beauty line that specializes in affordable spa-quality high-end skin-care treatments, all designed to help battle the effects of aging. <br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They are especially proud of their Anti-Aging Duo, which consists of the brand's C, E, & Ferulic <a href="http://www.bonnyandblythe.us/why-use-a-serum-in-your-skincare-regimen/" target="_blank">Serum</a> (for <a href="http://www.bonnyandblythe.com/Vitamin-C-E-Ferulic-Serum-p/w-001.htm" target="_blank">women</a> and <a href="http://www.bonnyandblythe.com/Vitamin-C-E-Ferulic-Serum-p/m-001.htm" target="_blank">men</a>) and its <a href="http://www.bonnyandblythe.com/product-p/w-002.htm" target="_blank">Age-defying Eye Serum</a>, both of which have been scientifically proven to maintain healthy skin throughout all of life's stages. And they'd like to give one of you lucky ducks a chance to try out the duo for free (plus a little extra PayPal cash just because)!</div>

Just three short years ago this day, I was traipsing around in honest to goodness <i><a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2012/02/see-your-shadow.html" target="_blank">shorts</a>.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And now in the midst of snow flurries, the giant clairvoyant rat is predicting another long winter, just like last year.</div>

Happy Groundhog Day, indeed.</div>

I love this outfit from <a href="http://www.laurenmcbrideblog.com/2015/01/semi-casual/" target="_blank">Lauren McBride</a>. Not only does she look super cute with her vegan leather leggings and slouchy beanie, but (maybe even more importantly) she looks so comfy and cozy. And with the dipping temperatures and frequent snowfall we've been having here lately, I am all about the comfy and cozy.</div>

As much as I would love that little quote up there to be true, my bags are most definitely not packed, which means no, I am not ready to go. I'm all about waiting until the last minute, then throwing random articles of clothing into a suitcase while my boyfriend hovers and reminds me that it's definitely time to go and we'll most likely miss our flight if we don't leave. right. now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: center;">Yeah, it's kind of my thing.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We're heading to warmer pastures for a little bit, and the timing could hardly be better. It just got all cold and wintry up in this state. And I have not one iota of sadness about missing it at all.</div>

This week I am totally girl-crushing on <a href="http://www.rachelthehat.com/2014/12/blush-pink-with-burgundy-and-leopard.html" target="_blank">Rachel the Hat</a>. And it's not because she's one of my dearest friends (I have a whole separate friend-crush on her because of that). But in these last few weeks of cold, drab, grayness, her choice to wear light pink mixed with deep maroon makes me feel all warm and smiley inside. Plus, is anyone else getting like a super-hip kilt pouch vibe from her purse? Or am I only seeing this because I know she lives near Scotland...</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A few days ago we talked about a New Year's resolution to save money. (If you missed it, you can check out my 6 favorite tips <a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2015/01/6-easy-ways-to-save-money-in-2015.html" target="_blank">here</a>). Today, I want to share another one of my goals: one that is much more specific - to curate and install a gallery wall. What is a gallery wall? It's definitely not me building a small museum inside my (already small) apartment, which is the first thing I think of when I hear <i>gallery wall</i>. While that <i>would </i>be pretty amazing in a really cramped and crowded sort of way, what I'm referring to is a wall (or corner) that's filled with an array of art and photography that doesn't at all match, yet somehow goes together. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Don't get me wrong; my place is not completely devoid of personality. I have stuff hanging on walls and things resting atop bookshelves - a few framed photos of Switzerland here, some of my own artwork there, and way too many collage picture frames hung wherever I felt like hammering in a nail that day. But I'd like to be more intentional with the design of the wall and what I choose to include. Ideally, I'd like to have an artsy-but-not-too-serious gallery wall featuring quirky paintings, interesting photos, and personal mementos, à la this:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk215/sugaree16/blog/minted-dot-com%20sponsored%20post/minted1_zps94693bd1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk215/sugaree16/blog/minted-dot-com%20sponsored%20post/minted1_zps94693bd1.jpg" height="" width="500" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So far I've got the interesting photos (I am especially fond of one collage frame filled with close ups of friends and family doing weird stuff with their eyes. And I just realized that sounds a lot grosser than it is, except for the friend who turned his eyelids inside out....that one's gross factor is totally legit). But I am lacking in the quirky-art department. Which is why I was so happy to discover <a href="http://www.minted.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">minted.com</a>. It's full to the brim of photography, artwork, illustrations, and prints all designed by independent artists. Each piece comes in array of sizes, and even has the option to come framed. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What I especially love is that many of the designers on the site have aesthetics that are just about as strange as mine. For instance, I just searched for a deer wearing gym socks (yes, I think we've already established that I have unusual taste in imagery), and while I didn't find that specifically, I did find artwork of a deer in a bow tie, a deer wearing a flower crown, and in an unexpected turn of events, a photo-realistic deer with a geometric print superimposed over it that is really speaking to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
If animals in accouterments and other wall art isn't your thing, minted.com is filled with all other sorts of paper-related goodness: stationery, decorations, cards, calendars, invitations, notebooks, and their newest collection, <a href="http://www.minted.com/save-the-date" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">save the date cards</a>. I highly encourage you to check it out. I really believe there is something on that site for <i>every</i>body. If I can find woodland creatures dressed like humans, I can almost guarantee you'll find whatever it is you're looking for.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, it's a new year (Happy 2015, btw!!!), and like many of you one of my resolutions is to try to save money. I know from experience it can seem overwhelming at first. Like you need to move to a cheaper apartment, sell your car, stop going out, and basically never have fun again. But really, there are lots of little (painless) changes you can make that really add up to save you lots more money than you might expect.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk215/sugaree16/blog/CampusBookRentals/7_zps563a8e0c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk215/sugaree16/blog/CampusBookRentals/7_zps563a8e0c.jpg" height="" width="400" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Cancel your cable. Seriously. You don't need it. Replace it with a streaming service instead (Netflix and Hulu are my favorites). I did this more than a year ago because I was tired of overpaying for TV. At first I freaked out a little because suddenly I didn't have access to every single show on the air, and it felt strange to use a different format to watch TV (if you don't have a smart TV, you'll need to get a device to play the streaming video like a Roku, Firestick, or Chromecast). Plus, it made my TiVo (with a prepaid lifetime subscription, <i>what</i>) useless, so that was a bummer. But soon enough I got used to navigating the Roku, and I found a bunch of shows that I never would have had access to on regular cable (Orange is the New Black, Arrested Development....anyone?). And comfortingly enough, my favorites are still available to watch - Walking Dead, The League, and Project Runway to name a few. I'm so glad I made the switch; my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk215/sugaree16/blog/CampusBookRentals/12_zps29baa950.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk215/sugaree16/blog/CampusBookRentals/12_zps29baa950.jpg" height="" width="400" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Stop buying college textbooks and rent them instead! <a href="http://www.campusbookrentals.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Renting</a> is the new buying, don't you know. This is probably one of the simplest switches to make, and one that I really wish I had a time machine for so I could go back and make this exist when I was in school. It would have saved me <i>hundreds</i> of dollars. As I've talked about <a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2013/06/college.html" target="_blank">before</a>, CampusBookRentals.com is a great resource, saving you up to 90% off bookstore prices. And while you're at it, take advantage of their <a href="http://www.rentback.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">RentBack</a> program, where they rent out textbooks you own to other students for as long as the book is in demand. And you get paid for each rental, which is, like, a million times better than returning it to the bookstore for a whopping $3.85.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Make a list before hitting the grocery store, and for the love of god don't shop hungry. When you're hungry <i>everything</i> will seem like a good idea, when in reality you probably didn't need to spend an extra $10 on 3 bags of Cheetos and $8.50 for frozen hors d'oeuvres. Stick to the list and don't tempt yourself to waste money and calories by showing up famished.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Speaking of food, cook meals at home as often as possible. Sure, it's easier to swing by Taco Bell on your way home from work or school, but wouldn't making your own burritos from scratch filled with black beans, corn, brown rice, tomatoes, cilantro, salsa, and homemade guacamole be so much more satisfying and delicious? If saving money isn't enough incentive to cook at home, just check out your favorite fast food chain's nutritional information. Enough said.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. Take advantage of the ease of direct deposit. Most companies nowadays require their employees to participate (and if yours doesn't, I hope you're using it anyway because it is crazy convenient), so make it work for you. Set it up so that a portion of your check automatically gets deposited into a (separate) high-yield savings account (preferably one with a decent interest rate - <a href="https://personalsavings.americanexpress.com/index.html" target="_blank">American Express</a> and <a href="https://home.capitalone360.com/" target="_blank">Capital One 360</a> are good choices). You can choose to deposit a set amount, like $100 from each pay period for instance, or a percentage of your earnings if that's more your style. Having it automatically deducted before you even see it is the secret here - when you don't see it in your check or have access to it on your debit card, chances are you won't really miss it.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6. Get rid of your gym membership. <i>I know.</i> This one's a toughie. But giving up your membership doesn't mean you have to stop exercising. There are plenty of ways to exercise for little to no money at all - go for a run in the park, ride your bike around the neighborhood, download a <a href="http://www.yogadownload.com/" target="_blank">free yoga podcast</a> and do it in your backyard, swim laps at your town pool or local rec center, <a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2014/08/marika-magic-shaping-capri-review.html" target="_blank">run up and down some bleachers</a>, lift weights in your living room, take a walk with a dog or a friend, follow along with these hardcore videos from <a href="http://dailyhiit.com/" target="_blank">dailyhiit.com</a> (my newest obsession, btw), or play Just Dance on Wii for a half hour. I cancelled my gym membership over 6 years ago and I haven't regretted it once since.</div>

<br />
Hey guys. If you follow me on <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/bittyandbunny/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a>, you'll see that I've been all over it lately gathering NYE inspiration. Because a perfectly acceptable evening to wear gobs of glitter and scads of sequins only comes around but once a year. Since tonight's the big night, I thought I'd share some of my favorite pins with you (you know, in case you still haven't decided what to wear, which makeup to rock, what hairstyle to do, how to paint your nails, or which pre-party cocktail you'll be whipping up....which sounds like absolutely <i>no one</i> I know; nope, no sir, not me).<br />
<br />
No matter what how you're dressed, what you drink, how much glitter you've got on, or how you spend your evening, I wish you the happiest, healthiest New Year full of love, laughter, and happiness! <br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

Is it weird to wish you a Merry Christmas after Christmas is over?<br />
Maybe.<br />
But probably not as weird as the friends of mine who will be receiving Christmas cards from me after we've already rung in the new year.<br />
As you can clearly tell, I am totally on top of stuff around here.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red; font-size: large;"><i>I hope you all had a very merry,</i></span><br />

And now I have a gift for you - a giveaway! Here's your chance to score an Old Factory candle gift set of your own, in the theme of your choice. Sorry, but this one is only open to my U.S.-based buddies with an Amazon account; Old Factory can't ship outside of the country at this time. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I got a chance to sample these candles, and I have to tell you that they pack a punch! They're on the small size - just 2oz. each, but you'd never know it when burning them. The scent isn't overpowering, though; it's just enough to scent a small room really nicely. I chose the Man Cave set because it was just so different and unique: straight razor, leather, and mahogany were included. They smell really good (and not overly manly) separately, but burned simultaneously is where the magic really happens. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They're made in the U.S. with soy wax and a self-trimming wick. Plus, the cute packaging: They come in simple glass jars with brown paper labels and black lids, then the whole thing is wrapped up in a nice cardboard box with a rustic-chic feel. But really, they had me at <i>brown craft paper</i>.</div>

Last week Meagan, of <a href="http://meagansmoda.com/2014/12/11/festive-details/" target="_blank">Meagan's Moda</a>, rocked a look that I can only describe as <i>Reindeer Chic</i>. I never knew a reindeer tee could look so sophisticated. It certainly didn't when <a href="http://bittyandbunny.blogspot.com/2011/12/dancer-prancer-donner-vixen.html" target="_blank">I wore mine</a>. If only I had known, reindeer tee + blanket scarf + camel blazer = pure brilliance.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: justify;">I'm of the belief that stocking stuffers are more fun when they are small, but thoughtful gifts. Don't get me wrong, fill my stocking with candy, batteries, and scratch offs and I'm a happy camper. But don't you just love wrapping up small presents and tucking them away in somebody's stocking? It's always a happy surprise when the recipient discovers that extra special something in there.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

As soon as I came across Crissy's outfit at <a href="http://www.somevelvetmorningblog.com/2014/12/red.html" target="_blank">Some Velvet Morning</a>, I knew it would be the one I featured this week. She is so quirky and fun, and her photo shoot in this post is <i>everything</i>. You really need to click over to see it. I will just say this: she has giant balls.</div>
