If you would have asked 16 year old me if I like "trends", I probably would have rolled my eyes at you, turned on the heel of my converse one-stars with the rainbow laces (so NOT trendy, right? Riiiight....), flipped my hair over my shoulder, turned up my ipod (which had a heavy mix of everything from Blink 182 to Britney) and walked away.
Yeah I wouldn't have admitted it to you then, but today, I'm all about trends. The feathers in the hair type stuff- not so much, but fun and cute things- hecks yes! I'm all about these trends right now.
1.
Any workout that allows- nay, encourages- you to wear tassel-butt pants is ok in my book.
Not to mention it's WAY fun and you can burn upwards of 800 calories in a 1 hour class! A group of friends and I have started going to a class on Thursday night taught by Liz (HI LIZ!) and soon there will be a Tuesday night class- STOKED! AND it reminds me of competition cheerleading (too bad we can't do stunts) AND the past few weeks one of our songs has been "Time of My Life" from Dirty Dancing (!!!!!). AND I am learning how to booty dance (don't think about that too hard, you could go mentally blind). I could go on, but I'll leave that alone and move on to my next favorite fad...

I bought one of Sara's kits and I'm officially in love.
They are tiny and time-consuming so I'm only planning to make a cover for my last trendy gadget...3. My kindle
Yes, I'm aware that books will still be around even though the kindle exists and yes I still love the smell of a book, but I also LOVE the convenience of the Kindle and the way it allows me to be absolutely lazy at night and read in the dark without the bother of lifting my arm to turn a page. *happy sigh*Oh, and the last 2 trends should go without saying: Pinterest and this Iced Coffee Concentrate. Holla!
Joe and I are heading up to DC this weekend for one of my absolute bee-eff-effs! I've never been to that area before- if you have any ideas or suggestions (fabric stores, anyone?), shoot me an email or leave a comment!

I have always wanted to try Zumba, but I've had a hard time finding a class that doesn't require a gym membership, ya know?
Zumba is the bomb.....even if I look ridiculous trying to shake it like a salsa dancer. It's SO fun.
Meredith- here in my town the Y offers it, but classes are also offered through another "dance-out" company at random locations (for instance my class is in a church gym). See if they have a "drop-in" rate (it's like $5 here I think).
AnneMarie- I look absolutely ridiculous too, I'm sure. Luckily the gym where we dance has no mirrors! haha
