Come on in and take off your heels - you're among friends. The site formerly known as Laid-off Ladies has been renamed Undecided. Here, 20-somethings (or 20-somethings at heart!) can gather to discuss and share the things most important to them: careers, social life, relationships, culture, dining and art, along with tips to live a budget-chic lifestyle.
As a 20-something, I think a lot of elements in our lives are undecided and I find a beauty in the undetermined. We're carving out our paths and here we will do it together, relying on each other for support and advice. The site is penned by Lisa Marie and as always, share your comments, tips and advice. Send e-mail love to askthegirls@laidoffladies.com.
Take a look at what I'll be featuring:
Worth It! (new!) - A product that may be a little pricey but is worth the cost, an event you don't want to miss or anything that makes you look at your girls and say, "worth it!"
Novice Chef (new!) - I've managed to wreck a boxed cake and Easy Mac. I'm far from a master chef but here I will share my latest recipe and if I was able to digest the final product. You can share your recipes, too (please help)!
Everyday Inspiration - People I admire. Fellow bloggers I think you'll like. Things that motivate me. Ways to put your best foot forward.
Have you Heard? -I'll filter news down to what you actually need to know. H1N1? Phhhlease. Jimmy Choo at H & M? Now we're talkin'!
How to Bring Home the Bacon - You're not alone. We're all chasing our dream jobs ... Here you can find tips on snagging it, get support for the tough times and advice for putting your best foot forward.
Paint the City Green - Save the environment with do-it-yourself ideas. Keep your apartment cute, your energy bills low and your wallet padded while helping Mother Earth. After all, us women have to stick together.
I'm Not Afraid to Admit ... - Break up with your boyfriend and eat a gallon of ice cream? Fall in front of a crowded office? You're not the only one. We'll share our embarrassing moments and thoughts, as long as you share yours too.
You Know You're Not an Adult When ... (new!) - I think this speaks for itself.
What the City Has to Offer - I'll find and visit inexpensive and free events in Chicago to keep locals and tourists in the know.
What I Love Right Now - I can't wait to share the newest deals, stores, books, movies and more.
Thrifty Tips - I'll help you find every way to scrimp and save so you can have some extra dough to spend on more important things ... like new shoes!
I firmly believe in grabbing the city by its stilettos. Let the journey begin!
xoxo,
Lisa Marie
