Urban Outfitters Launches Modern Love Contest

Although we are one day away from the start of February, starting today, Urban Outfitters has officially gone on the hunt for the best modern love photos. Every week, they will feature a new theme and ask users to tweet in their pictures. The best photo from each round will win a great prize! Last year, my friend and his girlfriend won an Urban Outfitters gift card so I can only assume that that will be this year’s prize as well.

RIP Neptune Theater

Dear Neptune Theater,

Rest in peace. Four years ago, I watched the opening of Juno with my friend Sasha and that was the first and last time I ever stepped foot into your theater. Best of luck in your future endeavors. Seriously. I can’t wait for that music venue!

Anthropologie Introduces BHLDN

Last week, I received an email from Anthropologie announcing that they would be debuting their wedding line on the most romantic day of the year: Valentine’s Day!

I am already a huge fan of the Urban family that is Anthropologie, Urban Outfitters, and Free People so when I heard this news, I just couldn’t contain my squeals. Pretty sure I have already started envisioning my dream wedding dress by Anthro.

So what is BHLDN exactly? What do these letters stand for? How do you pronounce it? What does it have to do with weddings?

The press release doesn’t give away any of those answers. The wedding brand, however, will not only include wedding and event gowns, but the other necessities involved with the wedding including decorations and DIY items already pre-made. Looks like I’m one step closer to having the perfect hipster wedding.

New Header!

Happy February, readers!

I know this doesn’t tie in with the season and might work better with spring or summer, but will you just look at the love in this photo?!

I remember viewing the photos from this wedding and thought that it was the most adorable thing I’ve ever seen – until the hipster wedding won over my heart of course.

Anyways, I hope you guys have a wonderful month and are able to give and receive a whole lot of love.
