March Madness
Well, the madness has started.  I am a huge fan of basketball and of course made my bracket, which is turning out decently so far.  I can't wait to see which teams make it to the end and if I'll win the family bracket tournament (fingers crossed!) I have Kentucky and Villanova in the final with Kentucky winning the championship! Who do ya'll have in your bracket?

Tripod
Earlier this week I took a trip down to Best Buy to purchase a tripod and remote for my camera.  One of the biggest troubles I've found since starting college is that I can't get as many outfit photos posted as I'd like.  I have a very generous room mate who doesn't mind taking pictures for me, but I feel bad asking her to take time out of her day to do it.  It's also tough because are schedules don't match up very well to give us time to do it during the week.  I've been doing my research and finally decided to make the purchase! My first shoot with it was a little difficult (and awkward), but I'm really happy with how things turned out! You can see my first post with my tripod here! 

I am a huge jewelry lover (but, I'm sure ya'll can tell).   When I came across Rocks Box I knew it would be right up my alley.  With Rocks Box, you pay $19 each month and in exchange get sent amazing pieces of jewelry based on a quiz you fill out while signing up. Then at the end of the month you ship everything back and get to try out something new.  If you like something, you can purchase it and keep it.  This is such a great idea because so many times I find myself loving a piece right after I buy it but then moving onto other pieces.  Some of the things I have I don't necessarily wear all the time, so I would've loved to have gotten them through a service like this! They'll send you jerwelry from designers such as House of Harlow, Kendra Scott, and Lauren Hope.  And guess what?! Ya'll can get your first month for free if you use the code "dashofserendipityxoxo"!
