Any post grad lady knows it's all about the accessories, I'm talking about desk accessories.
I blogged a couple weeks back my favorite bloggers' desk looks, here are some of my pretty picks!
Happy Hump Day!

5 on Friday

We made it! We conquered another week!
I've been slacking on my 5 on Friday posts but this morning it was the first thing on my to-do list [after touching up my nails, of course.]
So without further a-do,

1. I am SO very excited for my first blowout tonight. Sara signed us up last month and I can not wait for some hair-apy and Mexican after!

2. This week was my first week back training since my half marathon in April. I am guilty of using work as an excuse, but I am back on the wagon and it feels so good [aka sore.]


3. Drum roll please, there is an Ed Sheeran cover of Sam Smith's "Stay with Me."
Yes it is incredible. And yes the countdown is already on for Sara and I to see him September 13th!

4. I re-discovered the classic "messy" braid this week and am loving it!


5. Steelers training camp starts today!! #blackandyellow

come on friends, get up now

"Bastille" Pandora literally saved my life [aka motivation] last week.
Silver lining of a 13 hour work day? You find some really good songs.

Greg Laswell.
That's all I'm gonna say.

His entire three flights from alto nido album is amazing but this song has to be my favorite.
The lyrics are exactly what we all need to hear sometimes, usually more than we'd like to admit. 

"Comes and Goes (In Waves)"

This one's for the lonely, the one's that seek and find
Only to be let down time after time
This one's for the torn down, the experts at the fall
Come on friends get up now you're not alone at all

This one's for the faithless, the ones that are surprised
They're only where they are now regardless of their fight
This one's for believing if only for it's sake
Come on friends get up now love is to be made

This is for the ones who stand
For the ones who try again
For the ones who need a hand
For the ones who think they can
