My ever evolving style..


I think these are completely adorable.










I've been fond of opals ever since my husband, Jonathan, said he liked them. And there's something I love about it's luminescence paired with the gold tone. Classic.






Australian crystal bracelet by Catherine Popesco. Stunning. We are about to start carrying her line at the boutique I work at. So excited!




Love, Love, LOVE! I will own these one day.

Spring Forward

As most of you know, I am a huge J Crew fan... I was looking at their new spring collection today and thought it would be fun to make an outfit :)



Starting at the top left & clockwise: Camp pocket cardigan in vintage fatigue, Scallop lace shell in desert pink, Pin-slim patent belt in alabaster, and 3" Chino short in modern red.

Goodbye 2010

I don't have any "resolutions" this year but I do have a goal to be an all-over better and more responsible person. Things like getting to work on time, keeping my house cleaner and more organized, being more aware of the money I spend, planning healthy meals, setting aside a time to do a quiet time, being more active and social...I could go on and on...
-
So here is my latest project. I finally cleaned up and made my extra living room functional. It was an all purpose dumping ground before but has been turn into a cute little movie room.
-
-
-
I also replaced the more casual kitchen table set we were using with the fancier one that was being stored in the "all purpose" room and put the other one in storage.

Is it a cake or a pie?

It's both. (And it's 1800 calories a slice) It's an apple pie baked inside yellow cake on top of a pumpkin pie baked in a chocolate cake..with buttercream icing of course. Who thinks of these things?? They call it a Pumplecake, which is the grossest name I've ever heard.. What do you think..Great idea? Or too much??

More playing..

After washing and drying the dog toys, we took them back to their home in the toy basket...
-
-
As always, Pookie immediately ran to the basket and pulled them out one by one..
-

-
Jonathan loves taunting the dogs with their toys by squeaking them repeatedly. It drives them crazy!
-
And by "Drives them crazy" I mean they LOVE it. Speaking of 'Love'.. I love my pomeranians so much :) I'm convinced they are the best breed.
-
-
Pookie gets really focused whenever treats are around. He even knows how they are spelled. I can say T-R-E... and before I can even finish he flips out and starts running in circles.

Family Portrait

This isn't just any family portrait.. It's a group picture of some of the most important members of our family...the dog toys! (Don't Judge..) We just washed them all so I thought I would take a picture. If you don't have dogs you are probably thinking I am pretty weird right now (Ha..Or maybe even if you do have dogs) but me and Jonathan have a special bond with our dog toys. We even name them..
