Luckily, I had a long break between classes, and not a lot of work to finish, so I was (crazily?) happy to spend 90 minutes in line to cuddle this tired little guy. Worth it? Absolutely! :)

Just a little teaser of that weekend- full post on Cork and Blarney Castle coming soon!

Essie- Lilacism

I fit three bottles of nail polish into my suitcase, and this Essie shade from my Christmas stocking made the cut. The perfect lilac color for pretending it's Spring :)

I spend a lot of time walking in the wind and cold rain here, and Ireland's climate, despite being damp and humid, has me reaching for my moisturizers.

In need of something cute? This veterinary surgical assistant comforts a puppy after surgery. Bonus, this video was taken at a rescue organization in my home state!

The best dresses of this year's Oscars. An eight hour time difference kept me from watching the Oscars this year, but I've caught up on some of the best moments, and of course, the dresses! (Also, congrats Leo, it's about time ;)

Refugee girls dress up for their future careers. As part of the International Rescue Committee's Vision Not Victim project, photographer Meredith Hutchinson photographed young girls in refugee camps in Jordan, posing as what career they'd like to have as adults. Nothing but hope for these girls.

I'm going to try to finish blogging my trip to Cork soon- the whole weekend might need a two part post. Blarney Castle and St. Finn Barre's require lots of pictures!

XOXO,

Emily
