Last One...a Few Randoms for You

 
I'm finally getting signed up for a real pottery class and I plan to make tons of little planter like this one.

 
We have these berries outside my office...I may try to stealthily steal a few to recreate this festive, simple look.

Gobble, Gobble

 
Loving this Thanksgiving banner.  Will def do this if I ever host Thanksgiving or better yet, Friendsgiving.

 
Once again, if I were hosting this would go on my chalkboard.

Wedding Inspiration

 
This dress looks so comfortable and pretty.  Illusion necklines throw me for a loop if they don't match skin tone, but this dress seems to work, at least on this girl. 

 
Pretty natural flowers.

 
I've never seen a fishtail on someone with such short hair...it gives me hope that maybe I can do it one day!

Craving a Little Mary Jane

I came across this pic on Pinterest today and it kind of made me want a pair of Mary Janes. 
 
With this outfit they look good, but they also kind of remind me of my first grade self...I rocked some patent leather Mary Janes back in the day.
 
 
I found both these option on Zappos.

 
The one above I like, but the strap isn't has high so I'm not sure it would achieve a similar look.

The platform on these may be a little much.
 
More than likely I'll never come across the right pair.  It sure would be nice to have a strap to keep my shoes on when I'm wearing tights all winter long.
 
Liking me also worries me that I'm getting a little too Asheville in my fashion sense...my Atlanta self never would have considered these I'm pretty sure.

Photo Dump

 
More plaid bedding.  I think this would be good for a guest room or a little boy's room.  I like it, but I'm not sure I'd want it in my own room.

 
Love the style of this screen door.  Its the same house that had that brass outside lantern.

 
Setee love.  Its Erika from Urban Grace's daughter and furniture.  I really wish she would post pics of her house post renovation because I love every little glimpse I get of it!

Let There Be Light!

Last time I posted I was all about bedding.  This week I've been saving all kinds of lighting inspiration.
 
 
Love this outside fixture.

 
Simple globe, I actually think I like fixtures that make more of a statement.  Probably what really drew me to this pic was the setee...vintage, velvet, oxblood, what's not to love.

 
Loving the lantern style after visiting the Ford house!
 
Also the built ins and the lights above them. 

 
I know this style is all over all the blogs and Pinterest, I just can't remember if they are normally brass.  I like the brass.

The bedroom is where the magic happens...

I'm referring to a makeover...get your mind out of the gutter.
 
Recently I've been saving all kinds of bedroom inspiration pictures, I think its my way of subconsciously telling my self its time to get rid of the bright green accents I put in my single girl room and go for something that is a little more suitable for my current domestic partnership.
 
 
Plaid and strips.  I love it and Alex would too.  This pic makes it look easy to pull off, but I think it might be harder than I think.

 
I just love all these pillows.

 
Chartreuse day bed love.  Not going to happen in my room, but I'll file it away for a kid's room.

 
I think I'll go for a bolder plain, but there is still something about this room that I really like.

 
After having to make up a bunk bed as an adult I've vowed to never own one. I was sweating by the time I made up both beds the process involved quite a bit of climbing and stretching.  I do like the idea of twin beds running down the length of a long room.  The drawers below the bed could be used for storage or for trundle beds because let's be honest, I love a good slumber party room.

Anthropologie Items of the Week

 
Love this peplum top.  I was going to hold off on it, but I just had to add it to my cart today to qualify for free shipping.

 
Love these so much.  I might have to tell Alex that this is what he's getting me for Christmas.

Time for a photo dump...

So, as most of you know I changed jobs a while back.  I'm loving my new job but it keeps me busy, real busy.  I'm constantly behind on Pinterest and blogs and as a result my own blog is suffering...but I'm going to try to get back into posting a little more regularly.  Here is a photo dump of all the things I've been saving to share with you...

 
Love this for a Christmas party invite.

 
1. At first I thought this was a pic of Kimberly.
 
2. Love that garland.  Perf for holiday festivities.

 
Love this stocking.
 
My fam needs new ones...Hardee, I might be telling my mom to request that you make some if you're willing to.

 
Still loving thin gold pic frames.

 
Baby Carhartt overalls...cold there be anything cuter?

 
Someday I will have a dinner party as classy as this.

 
These boots. 
 
When I save them I was just lusting over them.  I was trying to decide between motorcycle boots and cowboy boots, and then I found these.  The perfect combo of both.
 
Then a 25% off all boots on Amazon coupon found its way to my inbox and I couldn't resist.  I talked my mom into letting them be a Christmas present but had them sent to my house to make sure I liked them and they fit.  I'm not technically allowed to wear them until Christmas, but sometimes I secretly wear them around the house when I'm by myself because I love them so much.
