HI GUYS!
What’s new? How’s it going? Are you prepared for Halloween? Or not even?
I have a week of spooky, random, weirdo Halloween-ish but not all Halloween-ish stuff planned for you.
Kind of hoping that you WILL BE making Slutty Brownies for Halloween, but if you’re looking for something a little healthier, I gotcha covered.
On the itinerary for this week: a costume tutorial, creepy recipes, kiddy ideas, a random rant, an interview with a high powered boss lady, & a TOP SECRET, handy post. GET EXCITED, K.
But you already know ALL of that if you subscribe to The Skinny Confidential Newsletter…& if you’re curious, leave your e-mail below & I will make sure to slip you the weekly update.

Ok. So, in other news, I just got back from dinner with my family & my grandma ordered a meatball.
But like one meatball. For dinner. That’s it. Just one, thanks.
It was pretty damn funny considering it took The Nanz the entire dinner ( 2 hours ) to finish her one meatball. She asked me if I wanted a bite. I mean……………..eer, typically I’d really love a bite. But it’s one meatball so I kind of can’t have a bite though? But you know? It’s like rude to eat a bite of someone’s one meatball.
Right? Or…?
If I’m not making sense, check my Snapchat.
& really, I cannot stress it enough: I’ve very into Snapchat.
I like it because it’s raw, real, & unfiltered. I answer every ‘snap’ from every person that snaps me. It’s so one on one & so un-facade ( no, that’s not a word, but you get it ). It makes Instagram look like a fake life & it’s kind of cool. In any case, it’s fun to watch people in their real environment.

Is anyone with me on this? Or do you find it boring to watch me drink 23947238956 Perrier’s a day. I mean, not me, but anyone? Isn’t it fun to watch the BTS of everyone? Am I a voyeur weirdo?
Ok. So going back to the whole Halloween week. This week is full of weird shit. So stay tuned because it’s going to be a wild-ass ride.
Well, I’m off to watch the new Fargo. Very excited about this because there’s a fresh new season. Also, Michael has the air on 62 degrees so I will be layering up with a heating pad & magnesium tea.
Happy Monday & talk soon, x lauryn

Love your snapchat! Where were those white pants from you wore a week or so ago to a dinner in Bev Hills I think it was, very wide leg, kind of high waisted. LOVED them and looking for a pair just like that!
Hi Sabrina! They are no longer available but here are a few similar options:

Let me know if you like any of those! Thanks for reading <3
LOVE your snaps and I totally know what you mean about it being more “real”. I know a few bloggers have written about people thinking that their lives are perfect because of their IG feed and snapchat gives them a peek into REAL LIFE. I think it helps us relate to you guys on a different level. Totally making slutty brownies for the office on Monday.. might have to call them something else though 🙂
Hi Jenna, I’m glad you like snapchat! I totally agree Snapchat is just more real. Thanks for reading <3
lauryn, your snapchat wins alll other snapchats. i seriously lol on the reg watching susan. i seriously want to die watching some of these other bloggers generic af snap stories. save the sprinkled donut for IG. snap is for keeping it real and you guys def do!
Thank you Kristy! You’re so sweet! I’m glad someone fins our life fun to watch. Susan is so ridiculous! <3
I used to be absolutely addicted to Snapchat but I’ve kind of forgotten about it in the last few months…it’s definitely a network that I need to get back into when I have free time! And I agree, it’s great to see people raw and unedited in!
Hi Kelly! Come back to snapchat! Follow me if you do too! It’s my favorite social media platform right now. So fun! xx
Can’t wait for the Halloween posts!!
Your snapchats are my fav, especially Panicky Susan and your gma eating a solitary meatball so nonchalantly.
Hi Minda, OMG the Nanz was too funny last night with her one meatball. Who eats ONE meatball?? Like seriously! Thanks for watching and thanks for reading <3
