Cognac & Summer Neutrals

Collages
Cognac, cream, & gold! If you ask me, basic is where ya ought to be… When I think of summer fashion, I generally think of bold and bright colors, vibrant patterns and prints, and lots of flowy dresses. These simple pieces I’m sharing today are excellent accessories to accompany all different outfits! Neutral kind of goes with everything…amiright? I especially love cognac with denim… What do you think?! Let’s talk shoes. Are any of you Jack Rogers fans? I...

This Happiness Series… Hilton Head Edition

HAPPINESS SERIES
We just returned from a fantastic weekend getaway in Hilton Head Island visiting my grandparents. We hit golf balls, relaxed by the pool, explored the beach, & enjoyed fabulous home cooked meals each night. I’ll be sharing a more detailed post later this week, but for now I’ll share my little happiness list with all things that remind me of memories on Hilton Head Island. Hope you had a great 4th! **Fireworks ** Fresh cobia with lemon & pepper. The sound...

June Monthly Highlights

THOUGHTS
I’m currently posted up in a hotel room in Atlanta while Eric is out kicking butt in some client meetings. We arrived last night and will make a 5-6 hour drive to Hilton Head this afternoon. Thanks to facebook memories, we were reminded we were engaged just 3 years ago yesterday! I can remember that special day so vividly. The Surprise. Champagne. Fireworks. A couples massage. An exquisite dinner. And the awe of what just happened and the excitement of...

Patriotic Faves

Collages
When I think of the 4th of July, fireworks & sparklers, the aroma of burgers on the grill, and a million childhood memories of races at the village green immediately come to mind. Growing up, our family participated in the township relays and events and though we may have not have won too many first place ribbons, the real win was spending quality family time competing together and cheering each other on. We always dressed up in red, white, and...

Music to My Ears

THOUGHTS
I had a fashion post lined up today but after watching an episode of America’s Got Talent last night, I felt compelled to do something a little different. A 16 year old girl from Grand Rapids, Ohio performed a beautiful rendition of Fight Song by Rachel Platten after beating ovarian cancer. It brought tears to my eyes- not only because her voice was chilling, but her vivacious and positive spirit inspired and uplifted me. Calysta shared her difficult struggle battling cancer...

Quick Goal Updates :)

LIFE
Whelp, all my bragging about our ‘Austin gorgeous weather’ has finally come to an end. To my friends in Chicago, it’s your turn! I can no longer take the dogs down to Zilker or go on a walk without coming home dripping in sweat. It’s been in the mid 90s this week with wicked humidity and it’s only going to get hotter. Tear. We’ve reached Texas summer… and I better get ready. But let’s be real… is anyone ever really ready?...

Bundrick’s Traveling Tea Parlour

*
I had the pleasure of joining my gal pal and the lady behind the blog Passionfruit And Prunes for a little tea date at Bundrick’s Traveling Tea Parlour last weekend. Nothing makes me feel more sophisticated and lady-like than an afternoon tea date with a friend. We brought our cameras, chatted about life, and of course, took many photos of our tea pot & mugs. Its quite a relief to spend time with someone who understands your need for the...
