How to be Smarter: Over the weekend, I devoured my two latest reading books: Bossypants by Tina Fey and A Place of Yes by Bethenny Frankel. I recommend both as funny, inspiring reads by a strong female author.
How to be Prettier: Disclosure: I own a lot of rompers. However, I like this high-necked romper (in leopard) because it provides more coverage on top than most other styles, but because of the slightly lower-cut sides, I usually pair it with a black bandeau top that looks intentional if it peeks out.
How to be (less) Awkward: An “I miss you” text out-of-the-blue showing up on your phone’s screen always feels more spontaneous and heartfelt than an “I miss you” that comes at the end of a texting conversation (whether the “I miss you” is coming from a sweetie, a friend, or a sibling).








Thanks for the heads up on the strong female authors, if you know of any more, please let me know!
I’m almost done with Bossypants and LOVE it!
So, so true about the I Miss You.
Fantastic quote, passed that onto my argumentative boyfriend as a not-too-subtle hint
I’m DYING to get my hands on the new books from Tina Fey and Bethenny Frankel, I feel like a bad fan!
i was on the fence about buying bossypants but this spurred me to go ahead and buy it!
Could you do a post on romper-usage? I’m always unsure. Thanks!!! Love SmartPrettyAwkward.
Bossypants is a great book
