Photo Dump

Going to learn how to make this adorable hat this winter.


Love the plaid and stripes combo.

 
Next time I wear a scarf I'm going to tie it like this.

 
Cute, casual and comfortable looking maternity style.  Is it too early to add flat booties to my Christmas list?

 
I'd like to start slowly redoing our bedroom.  I can't stand the bright green and yellow damask pattern we have going on right now.  I thought I wanted to go gray and blue, but this has me second guessing that. I do have a weakness for olive green.  I already own that exact lamp, or pretty close to it.

Photo Dump Randomness

Want a round mirror like this for my stairs!
 
Love the dark beads and green tassel.

Liked a the feel of this little cottage...




I want to be her.  Loving her hair and make up per usual.  Outfit is pretty cute too.

 
So this stuff just came to Target.  I hear its amazing.  I may have to get myself some.

Maternity Style

I could never pull this look off, but I wish I could.  Thinking of at least cutting my hair of to this length so I can start to look the part.

 
This one is from decorator Emily Henderson.  The dress is from Target!  Like the idea of wearing open chambray over a dress...I've never tried that before.

Nursery Inspiration


Love floating shelves with books and toys, and baskets underneath for more toys!

 
This is artist Michelle Armas' nursery.  The paint color is very unique.  Love the gray crib and artwork above the crib.


More floating shelves and a tassel for the door.


More floating shelves for books and baskets underneath.

 
Light and airy.

 
More of the same...
 
Pretty sure this is a store, but obviously the concept works in a nursery as well.

A Few More Randoms

 
I forgot to include this one with the gardening post, but technically its an indoor plant.  It is in the shamrock family and comes in dark purple too.  I also really like the "distressed" terracotta planter.  Not sure if distressed is really the word I'm looking for here, but you know what I mean!

 
 
Pinned these for an Americana themed baby shower I'm helping to throw, but I kind of want the blue ones for everyday use.

 
Cat lady nail inspiration.  Nina-belle, I thought this might be perf for you on your wedding day so you'll feel like Mo and Chester are part of the big event.

Style Inspiration

 
I'm all about this black dress paired with wedges.

 
Who doesn't move a rugby stripe?  Paired with bangles and stripes, this would be the perf summer weekend outfit.

 
More stripes and shorts, what can I say, I like what I like.  I also like the sunnies.

 
I like the idea od a skirt like this, but if I were going to wear a similar outfit I'd probably button up the shirt a little more.  Just saying.

 
Uniform inspiration. 

Home Decor Inspiration

Thanks to the new house I've also been saving a lot of home décor inspiration pic.  Here are a few...

 
Love the mix of patterns and textures on this bed.

 
Like the furniture arrangement here.

 
Cook book display.  I have a similar basket and I'm thinking about putting a few cookbooks in it to keep on my kitchen island.

 
Like the neutral color palate and the subtle print of this rug. 

 
I'm pretty much copying everything about these window treatments.

 
I need something large and long like this over my bed, but not a fish.  Anyone have any suggestions?


Life's A Garden, Dig It.

We (finally) bought a house.  It's new construction and the builder did a bit of landscaping, but there is definitely a long way to go.  I plan to do a bit of planting this year (maybe a few pots and hanging baskets) to spruce the house up a bit but for the most part I think we'll wait until next spring to do a big landscaping over haul.
 
Here are a few inspiration ideas:
 
 
This was actually taken in the parking lot of my office.  Love the color and texture.

 
Black hollyhock, it reminds me of my grandparent's house.

 
No idea what the names of the plants above or below are, but I like the colorful leaves.  These would be great for a planter.

Another Photo Dump

Time for another photo dump, enjoy!

 
Nightstand styling.

 
Tassel necklace

 
This living room has a lot I love.  Built ins.  Lamps over the built ins.  A t.v. that can be seen from any seat, but isn't the focal point over the fireplace. 

 
Wish I could figure out how in the world to curl my hair like this.  This looks low maintenance, whenever I try to curl my hair it always looks too done.

 
Love this bedding combo.

 
Here it is up close with a cute little baby.  The pattern/color combo is perf.

 
Warm wood and gray is my new fav exterior color combo.

 
I always love a striped shirt, especially paired with flares.  They are coming back in big time and I'm loving it.

Anthropologie Items of the Week

Its been a long time since I did one of these posts.

 
Love this tunic.  Its casual but I think you could throw it on with jeans and walk out the door looking effortlessly put together.
 
 
Love the color of this dress.  The cut looks flattering.
 
 
The back sold me.  Its just unique enough for me to justify buying yet another Jersey dress.

Weekly Photo Dump

 
Love the shape of these bowls.  Makes me want to take another pottery class.

 
Galvanized planter on a wood pedestal.  Like the addition of the candle to the vignette. Also like the way the plant cascades all around the planter.

 
This is my male model cousin turned chef to the rich and famous.  No joke.  I plan to do some tie dying this summer and love how his shirt just has little splotches of color.

 
Like the bedding combo.  I love all white linens but have learned the hard way that they aren't the best choice when you live with a boy and a dog.  Stripes may be the next best thing.

 
Pretty sure I have this sweater (from J.Crew)...the whie "tail" is attached.  Never thought I could wear it with jeans because I thought I'd look like a giant blueberry.  Maybe I was wrong.

 
Love this heights and textures in this flower arrangement.
