Smart, Pretty & Awkward

How to be Smarter: Some amount of luck probably got you to where you are today, but you can’t build luck into your life plan moving forward. Things happen because people make them happen. If you don’t make anything happen, most likely nothing will happen.

How to be Prettier: Keeping a packet of face wipes on your bedside table makes it much easier to take your make-up off on nights you have forgotten to wash your face until after you’ve crawled into bed.

How to be (less) Awkward: How common is your birthday? [This is a cool little info-graphic that's fun to email to friends/crushes/sweeties to break up a work day].

  1. “Things happen because people make them happen. If you don’t make anything happen, most likely nothing will happen.” This is something we all need to keep in mind. Wonderful.

    Molly, love this post – you should check out Lara Caseys “Making Things Happen” movement http://www.makingthingshappen.com. Also, I am a big fan of the “how to be prettier”. In college I always had them next to my bed! Not so much anymore, maybe due to the lack of late nights ;)

    Hunh, I thought my birthday’d be more common as I know 6 other people with it, but dang…September!! I guess people gotta do something to keep warm in the winter, haha.

    Hi Molly, I adore your blog! You have such beautiful and inspirational things to say! I stumbled upon it because I was looking up famous Tri Sigma alumni, and I fell in love (:

    I just started a fashion and lifestyle blog and would love your input! http://www.laceandcombatboots.com.
