Name: Katelyn
Age: 28
Resides: Dallas, TX
Occupation: RN and Nursing administrator
Hobbies: hiking, boating, reading (when I have time!), pilates, shopping, eating (love trying new restaurants/foods!), spending time with friends/family
Favorite purse brands: RM, MBMJ...don't own any of these brands yet but love Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Balenciaga, Chloe
Fave clothing brands: I'll shop anywhere and love finding good deals at NR, Off 5th, TJ Maxx etc. I like Anthropologie, Free People, Topshop, Splendid, Madewell, J Crew, All Saints...brands at Nordstrom...if it's cute, I'll wear it..don't care about the brand itself
Fave drinks: Green tea with citrus, diet dr. pepper
Fave foods: burgers, hot wings, and fries
..guy foods. I try to eat pretty healthy though.
Fave TV shows: Breaking Bad, Friends, Sex and the City, anything on Investigation Discovery, Family Guy, The Good Wife, The Mentalist. I loved Desperate Housewives and House...both over now though.
Fave movies: My Best Friend's Wedding, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, The Wedding Singer, Knocked Up, 13 Going on 30...alot I can't think of right now.
Fave singer/artist: I like everything except country music...my faves would be Incubus, 311, Jimmy Buffett, DMB, Maroon 5, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Jay-Z, TI, Lil Wayne, Coldplay, Linkin Park, Adele, Beyonce, Britney Spears...I'm kind of all over the place.
Odd things about me: I'm SUPER allergic to ginger. I love watching lame lifetime movies. I don't like the last digit of the cost of my gas at the pump to be an odd number. It's not something that really bothers me, but I just HAVE to put in a little bit more so it's an even number...yeah, that's weird.
Something that scares me: bugs, snakes...the usual kind of things. Losing people close to me.
Current obsessions: making trips to Central Market (the most amazing grocery store!!), sriracha hot sauce, searching for RM's. Pinterest.
Dream handbag: A Chloe Paraty, a MJ Stam, or maybe a Balenciaga. ..maybe I'll work up to one of those someday.. I'm pretty happy with what I have right now though.
