In the spirit of October, here is a little Halloween DIY for those who dare.
enjoy!!
I was pretty excited when I scored this orange glitter skull in the Target dollar section. I knew exactly what I wanted to do with him. My husband, however, was a little taken back by this purchase...but in the spirit of Halloween he agreed that our home could use a little festivity. All I needed was a small bottle of gold spray paint.
You could totally do "metallic" for a more intense shine.
As this was my first go at this, I went for something a little less dramatic.

Fall: Trending For Less
Bordeaux is a staple piece for Fall. The deep red can be intimidating, but when worn as a neutral, it can be a nice touch to any look. Once you play around with it you will see it can be paired with any cream or black tones. These are some of my favorite pieces right now...some more edgy than others, but all under $100!(well all but that gorgeous clutch...rats!) enjoy!!1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Festival Season Has Arrived…
This weekend has been a blast. Although the weather has been rather wet and rainy...it brought much cooler temps and for that I am grateful!The rain did hold off for one of my favorite Fall festivals... GrapeFest. This is a Texas Tradition and we have enjoyed going for the last few years. It's not only a wine festival but also a mini carnival...which I must admit is my favorite part :)Here are a few pictures from our weekend at GrapeFest.enjoy!!
A New York Surprise
It's no secret that I love New York City.My mom and I have been going for the last few years and we have the best time. Sight seeing...starbucks...shopping...starbucks...eating...starbucks

We always go around Christmas time because we love the lights and all the festive decor.This year would have been our "year" to go however after my wedding and my brothers wedding (3 months apart...sorry Dad & Mom!) I just assumed it wasn't happening.However, to my surprise, my parents surprised me AND my new sister-in-law, Megan, with a trip this December!Mom even made these cute cards with all the things we are going to do in NYC. (I guess you could say I get my creativity from her, ha!)We are so excited to have a trip with just Mom and her two girls.It's going to be a blast!Here are some of my favorite pictures from our previous trips to the city.Enjoy!
A Story in a Home
It's that time of year where I start pulling out my seasonal decor. Ahh, I can smell all the pumpkin and autumn candles burning. My favorite.
While pre-planning where I am going to incorporate Fall, I couldn't help but notice some of the little things around our home that hold such fond memories.
Its the simple things like a new letter in place of an old one, because you get a new last name...
a display of wine corks from bottles served at your wedding...or a goodwill coffee table your husband sanded and stained in 102 degree weather. (yeah, he's pretty awesome)
These are the things I live for...they tell our story.
enjoy!
