Quote of the Week

 

Wishing you all a week of inspiration!!  

Fashion Fix Friday {The Herringbone Vest}

In my “older” more “wiser” years I am trying really hard to take in what my sweet mama has preached to me for years!  “Buy staple, classic pieces for your wardrobe”.  I’m SURE you have all heard the same thing from your mom’s but, sometimes those super trendy, funky, I can only wear this one time because I’d just dieeee if anybody caught me wearing the same thing twice items are just so hard to resist.   Your classic pieces will be your go to items on days you can’t find anything to wear, those interchangeable pieces that switch up a look, those pieces you can keep for years and they never go out of style.  This is how I feel about the ever coveted herringbone vest!  It’s a must and a staple piece that’s not only stylish but timeless!  

Quote of the Week

This week brings another reason to celebrate...

Wednesday, I turn 33 years "young" and I must say, the number sounds kinda old but, I'm not scared! 

Bring it on 33!!  It's going to be awesome!!

 

Fashion Fix Friday {Plaid Scarves}

I hope you all had an awesome NYE and started 2015 off right!

We went super low key and went out to dinner, then stopped by the ole Harris Teeter on the way home to pick up some bubbly and snuggled up on the couch for a Game of Thrones Marathon. Have y'all ever seen this show?? We just started season one and wowzers is all I can say!  I had no idea how "raunchy" the show was!  After the hubs fell asleep on the couch I flipped it over to Dick Clark's New Year's Eve and rocked out to my girl Taylor Swift.  How seriously AMAZING does she look these days? AND confidence for days...LOVE IT!  At 11:50pm I popped the booze and woke my hunny for a little 10, 9, 8, 7 action and a smooch!

Hello 2015 I hope you are just as amazing as 2014!

Ok, on to the good stuff…

Scarves!!

I honestly, do not think anyone can have too many scarves- 

they are best accessory and can totally change up several different outfits by

 swapping out with a new scarf.

My latest obsession is plaid scarves.  

 You would think this would be a simple find but, scouting the perfect one can sometimes be a little more tricky than one would think.  

 

The hunt is real and continues...

DIY Fun {New Years Eve}

This New Years Eve there's no need to break the bank.

Here's a simple DIY  from Gatherings to impress your guests! 

Quote Of The Week {That's a Wrap}

My 32^nd year in 2014 has been nothing short of amazing.   

From saying “YES” to the man of my dreams and then finally saying “I DO” on August 2^nd.  

 From putting my “Bachelorette Pad” townhome that I called home for almost 6 years on the market, to closing on our first home together and what I am fairly certain will be our “forever home”. 

 From having a big brother that I wasn’t so sure would ever settle down, to finally popping 

the question to his one true love…is it September 5^th yet?!  

 I have gained family, friends, and love this year.   

 I thank God for all the blessings of 2014 and I can hardly stand the wait for all that is to 

come in 2015!  

Christmas Movie Round Up

Ok, so the first movie on the list is not a Christmas movie however, I have been wanting to spread the greatness of this movie for sometime now so...here goes! 

Blended, staring one of our favorite match-ups (need I remind you 50 First Dates) Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler is brillant and of course hilarious!  I seriously would go from laughing out loud to bawling my eyes out from happy tears!  The hubs and I picked this unexpected new fave up from the redbox the night before we moved into our new home and curled up to watch on a pallet we had made on the floor. #makingmemories

I don't want to give away details so just pour some hot tea or live on the edge and sip a hot toddy and curl up with those you love to watch this Christmas Holiday!! 

Ok, now onto the Christmas Round Up!

All of these movies, are favorites of mine and Scott's and a must every Christmas Season.

 

 

So what's your must watch movie during the holidays?? 

Any good ones I am missing?? 

 

Quote Of The Week {Christmas Wishes}

 

Merry Christmas from our family to yours! 

May we all take a moment in the chaos of this world and the holiday hustle and bustle to pause and remember the true reason of the season and give thanks and praise for all HE has done and all that He will do!

To God be the glory!

Fashion Fix Friday {Capes}

So whoever said Superman and Wonder Woman were the only chosen ones to don the ever powerful cape??  Last year I scooped up a navy cape that I obsessed over when I purchased and then something possessed me to tuck it away deep in my closet?!  Just last weekend I remembered this darlin’ gem and decided to break it out and get my superpower on and now, I am officially obsessed!  What could possibly be better than a stylish ensemble that makes you feel like you’re rockin’ your pj’s and bonus, your strut becomes a little more swaggerish because 

HELLO, IT’S A “CAPE”!!!

So how do you feel about transforming into a superhero?!
