New England Musings

So even though I totally love shopping, I joined Stitch Fix. It is a personal styling service that sends you clothes that they think you will like to try on! Each time you want to schedule a "fix" you pay a $20 "styling fee" and they pick out about 5 items of clothing to send to you based on your personal preferences, sizes, and price points. When your items arrive you have 3 days to decide what to keep and what to send back. The $20 styling fee goes toward one of the items. If you decide to keep all the items you even get a 25% discount!

So I'm like, totally obsessed with Les Miserables. Actually.... scratch that.... totally obsessed with musicals/broadway. I love Glee. I love RENT. I love it all.

"On My Own" and "Do You Hear the People Sing" have long been in my shower singing repertoire.  But the movie has given me a larger appreciation for the show as a whole. I saw it on Broadway when I was in 10th grade, shortly after my high school put on a production of the show. Overall, this movie was just amazing. The on set recording of the songs and the raw emotion were breathtaking. I don't recommend taking your boyfriend to this movie though.... mine HATED it. But musicals aren't for everyone.
