Wish list

From T and J designs:
I have been looking for the perfect tassel necklace for MONTHS, and each one I liked was upwards of $150... so when I found this one for $78 (less a 20% discount), I knew it was going on my Christmas list!

 

These would be amazing with my leather Vince jacket and some dark skinny jeans!  Just a little bit rock-and-roll!

Just adds a little pop of color and sparkle!

From Sole Society:

Fabulous aren't they? Such a pretty color that will contrast great with jeans or leggings!

These are just amazing everyday booties.  They'd work great with jeans or casual dresses... even a cropped trouser!

From Banana Republic:
This jacket is super cute hounds tooth (with elbow patches).  I'd pair it with non-pink clothing, and it would be great for grabbing lunch, a casual work day, or shopping!

From J. Crew:
This is the PERFECT sequined top! Love it going into spring - and it's black and white, so it will go with anything!

From Neiman Marcus Last Call:
I think this jacket is perfect for casual days when I am running around with my dogs, etc. 

I love my Michael Kors watches.  I currently have 4... and this is a great piece with a vintage-y vibe.  I love how the crystals add a little sparkle to the face without it being completely blinged out.

Splurge:

From Neiman Marcus:
I am just head over heels for the leather looks that have been everywhere this fall.  and these Theory tights are just flawless.  I have tried them on, and they are beyond comfortable!  I'd take them in black or this fabulous burgundy color. (Plus, they are on sale!)

New DECOR pics

So, we had to move in August after a developer bought our former town-home community and decided to tear it down and build a highrise.  I was SO disappointed at first, because we had put a TON of effort into our house.  But, it turned out to be an awesome move for us.  We are now 3 minutes from work, and have CRAZY amenities... PLUS most of our things fit into the new (much smaller) place!

I absolutely love this robin's egg blue color on the walls.  It makes me happy every time I walk in the door!  I used in the town home, and enjoyed it so much, I bought the same color again.  My one requirement for our new apartment - after we decided to downsize, was that my table from High Fashion Home fit in somewhere.  It is a SHOWSTOPPER!  Plus I got the floor sample, so it was a score at 50% off!

The bed we bought when we moved, and it turned out perfectly (I am still working on a custom headboard).  We were going to need more storage so we purchased a storage bed from Ikea.  It took us about 1 day to assemble it (with several breaks to do other projects peppered in). I am thinking about using the headboard pictured with the bed on the website, and upholstering it in the same fabric we used on the pelmets (over our windows).

Our custom Besta cabinets/storage center that we had installed along one LONG wall in the old place, once reconfigured, fit perfectly as our entertainment center (only 1 tower wouldn't fit, and it is nestled perfectly in our little storage unit out on the patio and is being put to good use)! Overall the new place is cozy and happy and fits us all perfectly.  A special thanks to Hercules, who can be seen hamming it up in some of these photos!

Great Finds!

With all of the great sales that have been going on since Thanksgiving, I have been able to stock up on some great pieces for both seasonal wear, and wardrobe staples!

From J. Crew:

I bought this one in a deep emerald color!

I got this in both colors, navy and grey!

From J. Crew factory:

I am all about sequins and am looking to add 1 or 2 more shirts to my collection.

From Neiman Marcus Last Call:

I have already worn this with a black pencil skirt, and it adds the perfect amount of glam for the holiday season!

Cutest winter accessory

So, with the influx of cool weather (us Houstonites aren't used to anything below 60!) I felt the need to fortify myself with some cute and cozy accessories. My FAVORITE:

This super-soft rabbit fur beanie! I found it online HERE.
