Love this look......

Ann Taylor

This outfit is %100 me. I love everything about this look, from the classic black jacket, that beautiful full gauzy scarf, the jeans tucked into leather boots, except my heels would be way lower!!!

still interviewing.......

Hey..Happy Monday!!! So I had one of my interviews this morning that had been cancelled a couple times for many reasons, not on my part. I'm relieved, but still stressed just wanting to know the results. You know? It's such a long process, I first begun speaking with this company months ago. So I'm ready! Now the waiting part. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

(Some cute outfit combo's from Kate Spade)

Enjoy your weekend!!!!

I love Fridays!!! Although I'm in the process of interviewing for a couple positions so this one was equally exciting and stressful for me. I'm going to read my October issue of House Beautiful and kick off the weekend, ordering in!
Enjoy!

making a life...

I was strolling though a store today and noticed a wood plaque with this saying on it. It really stuck in my mind throughout the day. Very true.

Today's THRIFTY finds...

flying the friendly skies........

I snapped these photos while on our way to the Domincan Republic back in July.

I love being in the clouds! Let's just say I have more pictures of the clouds than my actual vacation.... how wrong is that!

Goodbye summer days!!!!!

DIY plans...

Well here's a Mirror that I really love, but would never pay so much for. Have you seen it?

It's the Porcupine Quill mirror from Horchow.

Well I'm going to attempt my own DO-IT-YOURSELF version and see what happens! I have a plan...let's see if it works. Wish me luck!

the NATE BERKUS show!!!

(waiting in line....LAST!)

So my sister and I went to a taping of the Nate show a couple weeks ago! It was sooo much fun, of course I didn't get around to blogging about it (aka...lazy blogger).

Well the show premieres today at 3pm...but the one we went to is on Wednesday. It's the one that Dolly Parton is in. And they show the preview videos on his site right now...

Before you go clicking on his site...let me just grab this screen shot for you........of Nate, Dolly and ME (on the left in green)!!!!!

I had to do it, forgive me!

I'll share more later!!!! We were sitting so close we could reach out and grab him.

The only bad part is because we were front row..we couldn't sneak pictures because it wasn't allowed and would of been extremely obvious!

(my only cell phone shot after the show)

Zara's Fall looks for your lil girl

Well it's back to school time and I am happy to see it come! I guess that's why I'm also looking at all these cute kids clothes. These are from Zara's lookbook and I just adore this little girl and every outfit she has on!

Inspiration: Do what you love!!!!

Just watch!

La-la love J.CREW

I love Crew-cuts! They have the cutest things...of course the styling is so sweet!

Craiglist steal!

I just remembered that I didn't share my 1st craigslist purchase with you. Actually there's 2, but I'll show you one today. Take a look...it's this lovely cain backed white , uh off-white, chair with pink cushion. This is exactly as it came....

And here I just tucked it next to my desk (which will soon be painted white) and added a pillow and sheepskin rug. So you want to know how much, right?! TEN, $10 dollars! Can you believe it!

This is one wall in my office, I haven't painted yet, so I just put up some of my favorite tear sheets with painters tape.

Silhouette love..

Yes, I know Silhouettes are all the craze, and I'm in on it! I picked up this little gem today.
