Happy Fall Y'all

It is officially beginning to feel like FALL! It's about time. Ok, let me begin with the highlight of my weekend. Ready? Baylor BEAT Texas! Was that a dream, you ask. No! It happened before my eyes. Honestly, I never thought I'd live to see the day. Sitting amongst Texas fans, both young and old, as the gap between the Baylor and Texas scores became larger and larger, I must admit that it felt DARN good! The stadium was quiet with disbelief and by the 4th quarter had cleared out considerably. I stayed until the very last second, soaking up the glorious victory. All that was left in the stadium when the clock hit 0:00 was a roaring Baylor football team and a faint "Baylor" clap clap "Baylor" clap clap. It was AWESOME. I believe the win was well deserved and no, I don't feel bad for Texas fans one bit! Share the winning wealth, will ya?

Friday night some friends and I ate dinner at Moonshine in Austin. Located in downtown almost adjacent to I-35 and 3rd street, I believe. The food was incredible. I've only been there one other time but I had forgotten how unique the place really is. It was pretty packed since it was a Friday night, but the back patio and fireplace made for a lovely wait. I ordered a few grapefruit and vodka's... my staple drink! Gotta get the vitamin C! The drink was made with fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice and was totally refreshing and delicious! I give Moonshine an A++ for food, drinks and atmosphere! Loves it.

Saturday was game-day. I forgot to pack any green so I stopped by Beehive to get an appropriate green game-day shirt. I found a great slouchy forest green tye-dye top and a statement gold necklace that paired nicely with my Halloween costume that night (coming later). The game was fun, clearly. And the weather was perfect! Here are a few pics from the game...






After the game was the second best highlight of my weekend. I. Was. LADY. GAGA. I legit looked like her and felt like a total rockstar. Check it...



 You can sort of see the necklace but it was a major steal at Beehive for $30. And it was perfect for both occasions of the day (Game-day outfit and Lady Gaga). Cory and I walked around on 6th trying to find a bar that didn't have an hour long wait outside of it. Our search was a fail and we opted for late night breakfast and milkshakes at 24 Diner. 24 Diner is located on Lamar just across from Anthro/Rei where the old Waterloo used to be. It's so good! Unfortunately there was another Gaga in the restaurant, but I got over it. We ordered the 24 Hash and a, get ready, TOASTED BANANA AND CINNAMON milkshake. It was literally heaven. Best Halloween EVER. Seriously, go there, order it.


Overall, pretty great weekend! Things to look forward to:
Fall parties! WOO! Not...
Baylor football, the possibilities are endless!
Austin weekend with the roommates
Thanksgiving break
Montana trip

Fall things I am currently craving incluuuude:

Plaid coat from Free People... this jacket is SO SOFT and perfect to wear with anything!






















These Frye boots which are classy yet sassy... no rhyme intended. 



Totes love them. Ok that's all for now! xoxo

  1. Ok, not totally sure how this ties in with PR, but this is what I think about your blog in aspect of PR.

    One of the most important tools/skills a PR practitioner can have is the ability to write well.

    This cute little blog was fun, laid back and conversational. I think when you do a blog you have to give it a personal touch. If you aren't having fun writing for it, then don't, cause I am pretty sure your reader wouldn't be having fun either.

    Your blog gives your readers a nice little look into the life of Natalie, it creates an image and informs the reader who is giving them information. : )

    So wether of not this was mean to be a PR blog post or not, good job! ; )
