Every morning, when i sit down at my desk I surf the web...shame I know, but it's a habit I like. First things first, I catch up on work e-mail and make sure there is nothing pressing that needs to be dealt with. After that, I check the same sites day after day....at least in the first hour of being at work:
1. www.hotmail.com: My friends and i are e-mail fanatics, sometimes there are 50 some odd e-mails circulated in one day. I love it...except when I'm traveling and then it stresses me out if i can't answer or give my opinion on something!
2. www.thestate.com: skim any local news stories that appeal to me
3. www.facebook.com: self explanatory
4. www.foxnews.com: this is where I get all of my national news.
5. www.blogspot.com: catch up on as many blogs as I have time for...I check this throughout the day, whenever I need a five minute breather. The blogs I read run the gamut from fashion, to babies (as in friends who have them~ my "mommy" blogs so to speak, not as in how to have/take care of a baby for my purpose, ha!), to weddings, to design and decor.
*All of these websites are generally checked a few times a day. I know it sounds crazy, but I am a super fast reader and I skim a lot of stuff....everyone needs a little break from work every now and then. I probably don't stay on each site more than 2 minutes at a time.
Now, for my shopping sites i go to. These are more random, sometimes I will look at one three times a day...then go a week or two without checking back. It all depends on my shopping mood and how much money there is in the bank account.
1. www.anntaylorloft.com: my definite go to for work clothes. I really feel like Loft has stepped it up in the past two years for fun "going out" clothes as well. They always have amazing sales, the prices are really good to begin with.
2. www.shopbop.com: when I am craving some designer duds.
3. www.forever21.com: when I am craving trendy clothes but don't want to spend a lot. I will buy a dress or something from here specifically for "game day" or something like that, and half the time never wear it again. With the super cheap prices...it really doesn't matter. Of course, to be honest...a lot of the stuff is no good after a few wears anyways.
4. www.piperlime.com: because they have everything and it is amazing. pure and simple.
5. www.nordstrom.com: ditto.
6. www.potterybarn.com: because i want my house to be a mixture of PB, Ballards, and Coastal Living....that's not too much to ask right?
7. www.ballarddesigns.com: see above
