Sometimes, one outfit can inspire another. That was the case with today's outfit, a fraternal twin to yesterday's ensemble. I even opted to wear the same skirt (gasp!) two days in a row (which made me realize I need to shop for another black pencil skirt that's made of a heavier fabric). Here's black, white and gold, part deux: Top- ...
OOTD: Black, White & Gold
It's the Monday before Christmas and going to work is admittedly not so fun with the impending holiday on my mind. In my attempt to remedy this, I've tried to start this week right by dressing nicely and adding fun accessories to my outfits. Though I wore this top in a post last week, I decided to opt for a black and white ensemble this ...

Stella & Dot Jewels & My Jewelry Collection
I sure felt like the luckiest gal in all the land this week when I recieved a lovely package from Katie, a Stella & Dot stylist. I had never purchased Stella & Dot jewelry before but I had always thought it was super cute. I just never bit the bullet because I wasn't sure about the quality---but now that I have some pieces, I am confident ...

Did y'all ever think it would happen? Outfit photos! With a tripod! and a remote! My lovely husband purchased a tripod for me for Christmas and I started using it this week. Two years into blogging and I'm finally getting "advanced." For those wondering, I am using my Canon Rebel T2i on a 7ft tripod using a Canon RC-6 Wireless ...
It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas (Or Not So Much)
This holiday season started off with the best of intentions, it really did. I was so excited to put up our tree and marvel at its Christmas awesomeness. Unfortunately, life got so busy that I just didn’t have the energy this year. It feels like a huge fail, but not putting up my tree didn’t keep me from adding little holiday touches to our ...
Haul: Lululemon, West Elm, VS Makeup, Sephora, MadeByGirl.com, etc
I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend! I was so productive on Saturday. I woke up and spent the entire morning cleaning like crazy. I reorganized my closet, did five loads of laundry, dusted and cleaned our hardwoods and cleaned all of our cabinets (H helped too, which was awesome.) Then,we went to finish some Christmas ...
How I Organize & Store My Makeup
I filmed this video over the weekend and I realized I never posted it on my blog and since not everyone subscribes to my YouTube channel, I thought I'd post the link here. These are the trays I use to organize my makeup drawer. They are from The Container Store and they're fairly inexpensive. I feel fortunate to have a big drawer like this in our ...
Christmas Decor So Far…
I had some time this past weekend to start my Christmas decorating. I am still not 100% sure if I'm going to put up my tree this year. I have no idea where half of my decorations are after the move. I may do a mini tree. Until then, I'm perfectly happy to just have some holiday-themed decor in the house. Here are some snapshots of my holiday ...
