The College Prepster
February 2011
You guys aren’t living in the house… an entire month of
“IT’S MY BIRTHDAYYYYYYY!”
Question of the Day
Debate of the house… We need your opinions.
Should Little V be allowed to celebrate her birthday for the entire month of February?
Or just two weeks?
- Little V: How did you post all these tumblr things in the last five minutes!?
- Me: Well you told me I was SLACKING!!!
- Little V: I know YOU WERE!
AH!! In that picture of the little girl with attitude ... the caption was WWBWD - I say that all the time in real life! Does yours stand for What Would Blair Waldorf Do, too?
Yes!!! What Would Blair Waldorf Do.
Overheard (from Little V): I’m about to go Blair Waldorf on her!
NOT AS MUCH AS I LOVE YOU
Obsessed with the Prep Squad facebook message & my Tumblr bbm group :)
Carly, You are truly an inspiration to all bloggers and to all young girls. :)
Thanks Meagan!!! That really means a lot to me! xoxo
Hello Carly!
I am headed to Europe this summer, and I am in the process of deciding on what purse I should take to carry around as we sightsee, etc. I am thinking a longchamp would be a good choice, as it zips and is spacious, but also think a swingpack would be a good idea too as it is easy to carry and not easily stolen as you can conceal it under coats/jackets, but then again I will probably not be wearing a whole lot of jackets this summer. Thoughts?
Thanks!
My vote will always be for a Longchamp :) Have fun in Europe!!! xoxo
Hi Carly!
I know you have said before that you use Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, how do you like them? Do you have sensitive skin? If so, how do the cosmetics interact with your skin?
The reason I ask is because I have EXTREMELY sensitive skin and am looking tirelessly for a new foundation/concealer and would love an opinion on a product before I go to try it out/purchase it.
Thank you!

I have sensitive skin as well! Not extreme, but noticeably. I would go to a department store and test out some of the makeup on your wrist… It would be a little bit of a time commitment, but definitely worth it if it works out!
I think compared to other products on the market, Bobbi Brown is for sure the best I’ve tried yet!
I think your blog just might get better every day! :)
Thanksssss :)
Thanks to you, I discovered Sarah Pinto. I just ordered the green and white striped planner. So very exciting!
Also, random, but did you switch the names of the books on your header? Just wondering! I like it!
Sarah Pinto=life!
And nope! They’ve been the same since the beginning! I had so much fun with it haha… I think that making the header was my favorite assignment at Georgetown haha
I have a term for the sporadic jumps in followers I get. I call it "The CollegePrepster Boost" (for those who don't know you personally), or in my case I call it the "Carly's friends who take pity on a boy"... everytime you answer a question, reblog, or write about that dreadful 'date' we had I get at least 3 or 4 more followers.
But, as I'm sure you know I have a little tumblr-relationship with one of your followers who did the whole "aww a boy who follows CP". I start work in 2 weeks, I'm dying that I haven't played soccer in over 6 weeks. I miss the college lifestyle. I'll give you more details in text/facebook/twitter/skype/ichat, you're very accessible.
Oh and I'm missing out on a snowboarding trip to Vail with my sister right now, total bummer.
I wrote a paper on “The SNL Effect” and public opinion during the 2008 elections…
The CP Effect…. Matt Funk has been experiencing it as well.
The downside of the CP Effect is I can turn people against you just as quickly hehehehehehe JK
Ya.. I want to know more about this relationship.
Are you going to be mad if I repost this?
FOR THOSE THAT DON’T KNOW: Steven and I went on a date when I was 15 (my first ever)…. lots of tears and panic attacks on my part…..
What size Longchamp le pliage bag do you recommend? I'm currently picking out one to take with me to college next year and have no idea which size to choose!
Medium with long handles!!! The large ones work well for trips to the library though… so depending on what you will use it for, medium or large
Hi- Where are the shoes from in your "power picture" they look so cute in watercolor, they must be amazing in person!

Do you ever post questions to yourself anonymously?
Also, I almost bought March of the Penguins today, then I laughed and walked away.
NO. I am overloaded with questions right now… They’re piling up.
Also.. I need your life updates.
Umm and I would never buy that movie! hahahaha
Hey Carly!
So... I love your blog. And I was just wondering which Smathers and Branson headband is your favorite! Here's the link:

Thanks!
Helen
I’m not a huge fan of needlepoint headbands- although I like my Tucker Blair one…
I prefer the Smathers and Branson Georgetown belts/flasks/wallets/etc!
Little V can fit into crewcuts shoes? What size is she in womens shoes?
6!
I love your blog and tumblr!!!! you are so inspirational!!!! I was curious, what color of Longchamp Le Pliage do you like after navy?? :)
I have a navy and black!
