Meet our Team - Tiffany

Hello everyone! I think you'll be really excited for this new blog feature we are starting. Brooke and I aren't a two woman show, it takes a small group of very talented people to make The Girls With Glasses show run as smooth and pretty as it does. We thought it'd be fun to feature a different member of our team each month and give them a shout out for all their hard work that makes us look good!

Today we'd like to introduce you to Tiffany, our new media maven. She's gorgeous, but more importantly, she brings her writing, blogging, social media, developing campaigns, and design work to The Girls With Glasses Show. We can't say enough about her!

Summer

What's your role with Girls with Glasses?
I'm the new media maven on the team, meaning I work behind the scenes to manage the Girls with Glasses blog, twitter, Facebook and Pinterest accounts - So little did you know a lot of the posts you see are actually me! Hah!

Hometown?
Idaho Falls, Idaho, but I currently live in Provo, Utah.

Where did you go to school?
I recently graduated from BYU with a bachelors degree in communications, and my emphasis was multimedia journalism.

Do you have a blog?
I do! It's www.totiffanyann.com.

What inspires you?
I took a floral design class at BYU and have been in LOVE with flowers ever since. I thought flowers were nice before, but now I crave fresh flowers in my room and home all the time. In fact, our neighbor's rosebush has overgrown into our yard and on occasion I'll snip a few rogue roses and place them in a mason jar (don't tell). Seriously you guys, go buy yourself a batch of flowers and you tell me how quickly you can't live without them.

I also love organizing and decorating my space. I live with five roommates right now and you can't always guarantee cleanliness and organization in a living space like that, but my room is all mine. I've got the perfect comforter, beautiful prints, old cameras and even little glass knobs for the drawers on my dresser. If you love your space, inspiration will come on the daily.

Tell us some of your dreams/goals/aspirations:
I went to Paris a couple summers ago and would love to go back. There are other places I'd like to visit of course, but there was just so much to see in Paris; The Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, the Musee d'Orsay, the Seine River, Notre Dame - the few days I was there couldn't do it justice!

My dream job would be doing behind-the-scenes marketing (writing, blogging, social media, developing campaigns, some design work - basically what I'm doing for GWG) job for some big name company like Anthropologie, Target, Dove, etc. For now though I'm looking for a full time job in the Provo/Salt Lake area. So if you know of anything let me know! totiffanyann@gmail.com.

Have a lovely day!

Girls With Glasses Makeup Tip #2






Brooke and I love our little cat eyes, especially when we are filming the show. These two tips today are specific for getting that perfect look. We almost always are wearing false eyelashes, but when your not, most lashes could use a little pick me up, with an eyelash curler. Brooke shares her favorite two brands. I am all about the liner. Not being a pro, the NYX eye marker helps get you a smooth line, without needing years of experience. Hope you enjoy.

NYX Eye Marker $9 (They have it in skinny or fat)


Our Favorite New Albums.

Isn't it the best when you find an album you can listen to all the way through and love every song? Well, we thought we'd share a few of our favorite summer albums we've been keeping on repeat.
We guarantee you'll love every track:



That's right. The Beachboys have released a new album. No, you haven't traveled back in time, although it might feel like you have while listening to this.



Brandi Carlile, "Bear Creek"

For music with an Americana feel, a powerful female voice and lyrics that will rock your world check out Brandi Carlile's new album.


Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros, "Here"

You may remember this band with their hit single, "Home." Well, they're back! This album will cheer you up on even the rainiest, dreariest summer day.




Meiko, "The Bright Side"

We love Meiko, an incredibly talented singer/songwriter who just released her second record. Sophomore albums don't always live up to the artist's debut, but she has succeeded in releasing another great album!




Jack and White, "Winter" and "Undercover"

Of course, we have to include Jack and White's latest EPs. They've been hard at work and have amazing things to show for it. Go take a listen!


What are your favorite summer albums right now?

Summer Swimwear

We're all about the one piece suit this summer. One pieces are making a comeback, and why ever not? They remind us of the retro swimwear looks of the 1940's and 50's, which were super flattering. If you're a little hesitant, here are a few of our favorite one pieces this season. 
We would wear any of these in a heartbeat:

Aren't they so much fun? So bright and lovely. 
PS That's right! Summer's pregnant with baby #2. You can read all about it here

What to Pack in your Hospital Bag When Having a Baby



There are a lot of lists on the popular pregnancy websites that are dedicated to everything you should bring for this big event. Each mom has to figure out what she thinks she needs and what she is going to skip. These are the four things that I was glad to have with me, and I think you will be glad too.
 Brooke and I are wearing clothes from H&M and the bag is from Ame & Lulu

The Method Hand Sanitizers come out next month, we will keep you updated.
They are so cute, can't wait to share!

Hope you guys are having a great day.
