Sick Day Essentials

March 23, 2015

Spring is finally here. And with it comes allergy season. If you’re like me, you’ll have at least one miserable sick day this spring. I’m also a wimp when I don’t feel well. Here’s my must haves for feeling better when I’m stuck at home.

1. Comfy PJ’s. Nothing will make you feel better than curling up in some warm, fuzzy PJ’s. I love the cute sheep pattern on this set.

2. Sleep mask. This mask will help keep the light out so you can get some much needed rest. It has a lavender scent to help soothe.

3. Lip balm. I am obsessed with this Malin & Goetz mojito lip balm.

4. Chamomile tea. There’s something comforting about warm, chamomile tea.

5. Netflix. Use your time in bed to catch up on binge watching the latest thrillers.

See It, Love It, Want It

March 13, 2015

One of the main reasons I started this blog is to share the things that I love. In keeping with that, I plan to share three things that have caught my attention during the week – my thing to see, thing to love, thing to want.

: See It

: Love It

: Want It

See It: Our living room is a large room, with doors at both ends, a wall of windows, and an angled fireplace. Needless to say, it can be hard to find the right furniture arrangement in that type of space. I found these tricks for arranging furniture by The Budget Decorator. Hopefully we’ll find some time to try them out soon.

Love It: I have been a fan of Aveeda’s hand relief for as long as I can remember. I love it because it absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave a greasy feeling. I can immediately go back to whatever I was doing without leaving fingerprints. I keep it on my nightstand at home for moisturizing before bed & on my desk at work to keep my hands soft during the day.

Want It: I am loving this embellished skirt. It has just the right amount of sparkle to be perfect for spring/summer date nights!

Spring 2015 Trends

March 9, 2015

Good morning all! I am so happy and excited to be starting this new journey. I love fashion and style, so this blog will be my creative outlet and way to share my life with you! It’s been freezing here for the last few days, we even got some snow/ice. I cannot wait for spring to arrive so I can put away the heavy sweaters and boots. So I thought I’d start things off here by looking forward to some of the best trends for spring! Here’s my top three trends.

Gingham

This sweet and charming check was everywhere on spring runways. Go bold with an all-over look or use it as an accent.

: Altuzarra

A Belted Waist

Whether it’s a simple ribbon or an obi vibe, everyone will be cinching in their waist this spring. It’s a great way to add interest, contrast, and definition to a dress.
