Tuesday Rants & NYC Celebrity Sightings

Hello beauties, and welcome back to my page. I didn't have any specific post plans for tonight so I figured I'd just write about what's been going on in my life lately. Exciting, I know! College has been treating me very well so far, my classes are pretty awesome. I'm taking copy editing, writing for publication, media literacy and digital culture. (You obvi can't tell I'm a Communications major or anything...) Although, digital culture is a bit harder than I had hoped. But whatever, I'll get over it. 

My very first issue I contributed to for my college's newspaper came out last week and it was such an awesome feeling. I remember watching Gilmore Girls and imagining how cool Rory's life must've been writing for the Yale Daily News and being part of a real journalistic world and thinking "wow, I really want to do that." Just thinking that I'm getting closer to my dream is a surreal feeling. I can't wait to write more articles and work my way up! 

My school's located in probably the most beautiful part of NJ I've ever seen. I'm surrounded by mountains and the scenery is unreal, especially with all the snow. I can't wait to see what it looks like once Spring rolls around and all the trees and flowers bloom. But until then, here's a little peak of what the view from my campus looks like. 

Pretty, ain't it?

I've been itching to go to NYC so bad lately, I miss my beautiful city. Like I'm literally having withdrawals... as pathetic as that sounds. Lol! I think the last time I was there was two months ago with my best friends. And what a night that turned out to be, it was celebrity central at Madison Square Garden. Wait, I can't believe I didn't blog about this night before! 

OKAY, so my friends Gianna and Victoria and I decided to take a girls trip into the city one cold December day to visit the tree and roam around Times Square. It was the same day as Jingle Ball, so before we took our train back home we wanted to see if we could spot any celebrities outside of MSG before the big show started. Did we succeed? YES WE DID. We stood with about a hundred other people by the entrance, of course barricaded by gates. But we saw Adam Levine, Rita Ora, Emma Roberts, Taylor Swift, Jessie J, Kevin Jonas (Gianna cried), Dr. Oz (yes, you read that right), and get ready for it.... the one, the only, Sarah Jessica Parker. Guys, when I tell you I screamed so loud that the other side of New York could hear me, I'm not exaggerating. Carrie Bradshaw. I breathed the same air as my muse. I may have cried a little too. Unfortunately, I couldn't get pictures of any of the celebs but here are a few pics of my friends and I from that magical day. 

Times Square shenanigans.

The twinnies take the city!


Well, this post took a pretty exciting turn that I didn't expect to happen. Haha! Reliving those memories just put a smile on my face. Makes me miss my home besties a little more, can't wait to see them in a couple weeks. Hope you lovelies enjoyed reading this little random rant! Have a great rest of the night. xo

Sunday Funday

Yay! My first Sunday Funday post. It's always a fun time reading other bloggers' Sunday Funday posts so why not join in? So let the weekend re-cap begin! 

Just one of the many photos from Friday with my bests.
Friday was an awesome day. I'm currently getting ready to go away to school next week and the nerves are definitely kicking in full gear. I'm totally excited to start this new chapter in my life, but it's starting to hit me that a lot of things are about to change. I mean, I'm not going too far away which is a plus and I'll actually be living closer to the majority of my family so I'm loving that! BUT it's always scary leaving home for the first time. Anyway, my friends threw me a little going away gathering on Friday night as a last hoo-rah before I leave. We just hung out, ordered pizza, they got me a cake (chocolate, because duh) and took loads and loads of pictures, of course. It was the perfect night and I'm so grateful for the friends I have. I'm definitely going to miss them when I leave.


Yesterday I spent time with my family for my little cousin's 15th birthday. I probably shouldn't say "little" cousin anymore but, hey. I'm an extremely family-oriented kinda gal, so I'm always happy to be with my famjam. It's a great time when all of us are together, so much love and lots of laughs. A lot. 

Today's been a pretty chill day, hangin' at home trying to get things in order for my big move. I haven't started packing yet and I still have to finish dorm shopping..... oops? I'm currently ooh-ing and ahh-ing over the Golden Globes E! Red Carpet. Guys, I'm such a sucker for award shows, ESPECIALLY the fashion. Seeing what all the celebrities are wearing is literally my favorite part of the entire thing. I have no doubt that the Globes will be entertaining this year with Tiny Fey and Amy Poehler hosting, such a dynamic duo. Hmm... I'm seeing a little Golden Globes fashion favorites as a future blog post. Looking forward to seeing who wins what tonight. 

I just realized that in my last post I said I'd do a makeup routine post as well, so definitely watch out for that this week. Make sure to follow me at www.bloglovin.com/victoriahone and send me some links! Always looking for new bloggers to share my daily shenanigans with.

So that's it for my Sunday Funday, hope you all had a great weekend and I'll be back tomorrow to talk fashion: Award Show style. :) xo

Here To Stay


Hey bloggers! 

First, let me just say how good it feels to be back on the blog grind. I used to be a blog junkie and stopped for a while now, but as a girl who's going to school to become a writer, what better way to share my thoughts and daily rants than my own little personal space? So, I'm back and here to stay! 

I'm gonna use my first blog post as an introduction. My name is Victoria, I'm from Jersey but my heart belongs in New York City. I'm sure you readers will quickly learn my love for NYC as my blog keeps building. I'm a student at RCNJ hoping to pursue a career in Journalism. 

Notice my title? Let's just say Carrie Bradshaw is my muse, my idol, an iconic figure in my life. This blog is going to be a free space to write about whatever is on my mind, opinions, tips and advice for my fellow bloggers about school, family, friends, clothes, beauty, love, ANYTHING! (seriously, you name it, I'll write about it.)
