Let’s Talk Birth Control: Why I Switched From The Pill To An IUD

I have been meaning to make this post for months but life has totally gotten away from me. This is a very detailed life update and something very personal. But what’s the point of having a blog if I can’t share my life decisions on here? In March I decided to switch from the pill to an IUD. The decision came after months of research and weaning myself off of the pill. This post is not a medical journal. I am not your doctor. I like to share my opinions and make recommendations on my blog, but I feel very uncomfortable trying to do that with this post. You can take my account as a reference if you’re considering birth control options for yourself, but I will always say that you need to take the professional and medical advice of your doctor over anything I say in this post. Okay… now that we got that out of the way, let’s get into it.

Channeling Samantha Jones: Pink Power Blazer Set

Sending you a very tired and burned-out ‘hello’ from a girl who cannot catch a break when it comes to her 9-5 job. In the last 6 weeks, things have been so crazy busy with work and I’ve also been trying to adjust to some new organization changes within my company. When my work life gets hectic, I tend to drop off the face of the earth, especially on social media. Thankfully things have calmed down, but if there was one thing that gets me by during a time of corporate chaos… it’s looking like I have my shit together even if I do. I rented this bright pink blazer suit from Rent the Runway (my discount code is below!) and it was the most subtle and important move I made for myself during the last few weeks.

Since I’ve been working from home for over a year, I have gotten so lazy in my WFH outfits. I will literally roll out of bed at 8:30am, sit in front of my computer and start answering emails in my ratty pajamas. Then I won’t actually put on deodorant or change into real clothes until my lunch break at 1pm. Since I really had to up my game for my job in the last few weeks, I needed something that made me feel like boss bitch… but with not at lot of effort that would take me away from the work I needed to do. So the power blazer was a hit and I highly recommend. It’s giving major “Samantha Jones from Sex and the City” vibes and for that we are thankful. Give me strength Samantha! Similar blazers and the rest of my outfit details are linked below.

Recreating Taylor Swift’s Fearless Era Candids

In honor of Fearless (Taylor’s Version) being released, I wanted to share a Kimberkopy project I did last summer, but never got around to posting. Honestly, the timing for this couldn’t be more perfect since I am just a big ball of nostalgia these days.

I love how for each era, Taylor has a very distinct style that reflects the vibe of the album. I was 13 when the original Fearless dropped in 2008.  Back then, Taylor was such a style icon to not just me but every other teenage girl. (We really thought we were something huh?) Last year during quarantine, it became a fun game for me to thrift articles of clothing that Taylor has worn in the past, but in my size. I’m especially proud of this post because of all of the “Taylor Swift Style Exact” items I found online.

Here’s my Fearless Era Candid series. I hope these outfits give you as many flashbacks as the re-recorded songs do.

Adventures in Pet-Sitting: Tips and Tricks

Ahh the wonders of getting paid to stay in a local Airbnb. Wait no… not actually… but that is definitely how it feels sometimes. In the past year, I have become my local community’s friendly pet-sitter. Whenever someone needs reliable gal like myself to watch their house/cat/dog, they flash a Batman symbol in the sky and I appear. It’s my favorite side hustle! It has been so convenient since I work from home and I love getting to have some time away from my house (sorry Mom, Dad and Oma- still love ya!). I highly recommend house-sitting and pet-sitting to anyone who also works remotely and doesn’t have any pets of their own yet. So here is some of my pet-sitting wisdom and general tips for if you too decide to steal my thunder pet-sit and house-sit!

My 5 Favorite WFH Snacks From Trader Joe’s

I’ve been working from home for almost a year now and it’s honestly so hard for me to remember what life in the brick and mortar office used to be like. Life looks so different now than it did a year ago. But if there is one habit that has not changed since my little brother’s room became my home office, it’s that I am a huge snacker throughout the work day. I mean… what else is there to do when you never leave your house? Trader Joe’s is my favorite grocery store and I won’t rest until I’ve tried every food in there. I always like reading about people’s favorite TJ’s foods, which is what inspired me to make this post. Here are 5 snack foods you should pick up from Trader Joe’s the next time you do a grocery run.

Taylor Swift ‘Blank Space’ Apple Scene Recreation

boys only want love if it’s torture, don’t say I didn’t, say I didn’t warn ya…

Happy Valentine’s Day! I’m keeping up with my usual traditions of not having a Valentine and recreating a scene from my favorite music video: Taylor Swift’s ‘Blank Space’. At least I’m consistent. Doing this recreation definitely inspired me to come up with other Kimberkopy ideas, especially with the re-release of Fearless in April (can’t wait!). I think it is so fun doing these recreations. Black Space is my favorite music video Taylor has done and I’m really hoping one day I’ll be able to recreate every single outfit in the video. I mentioned in my post last year how much I want to visit the actual Blank Space mansion and that is still such a dream of mine! Not sure how possible it is because of COVID these days….but I hope you enjoy this recreation and have a lovely Valentine’s Day.

9 Virtual Date Ideas for Valentine’s Day

Happy almost Valentines Day! I will be spending Valentine’s Day by myself with my friends dog (dog-sitting) and Facetiming friends all day while I eat chocolate and drink wine. I’m not super enthused with the dating scene right now (not that I ever have been really) but I’m a pretty creative person when it comes to virtual dating. I know some people have gone back to the in-person dating, but not this gal! Get your COVID germs away from me! It’s hard to actually find someone who wants to date over video calls but I’ve heard stories where it isn’t totally awful. So here are some ideas that I came up with that I don’t want to go to waste that you should totally use if you are having a virtual date night this Valentine’s Day.

My Overtone Review: Would I Do It Again?

blondes have more fun, but brunettes remember it the next day

Bye-bye blonde! A few months ago back in October, I used Overtone conditioner to dye my hair a deep espresso brown. I loved it! I’ve been meaning to do an Overtone review for months now. I took so many fun blog photos with my brunette hair. Do blondes really have more fun? I’m not completely convinced anymore. Here are my Kim Thoughts on using Overtone conditioner and details of my washing out process.
