Wedding Inspiration

 
Such a sweet engagement pic.

 
I love "naked" cakes right now.  This berry topped version is extra pretty.
 
 
 
Now comes the pics I've stolen off Instagram recently...
 

 
 
 
Such a pretty setting.
 
 

 
 
Best idea ever.  Well, ok...technically a ring delivered on a new puppy's collar is prob the best way to propose ever, but this is a very close runner up.

Obsessed.

I'm obsessed with Mociun custom rings right now.
 
I love that the stone sizes don't match at all...so unique and awesome.

Holly Jolly

Here are a few Christmas inspiration pictures I've saved from Pinterest....
 
 
Is it just me or is plaid Christmas décor really in right now?  That is a trend I can really get on board with...starting with these stockings.

 
A friend of mine gave me a cute little chalkboard last year and I think I'm going to put this one it.  I love mistletoe, but will substitute the real thing or a bad fake for this.

 
So, in BMT they do a Christmas parade every year.  The first part of the parade is a dog parade.  After the show was over it came out that Alex intentionally didn't remind me about the dog parade and instructed all our friends not to mention it to me either...so, to get back at him I'm going to find the most redic costume for Sadie to wear next year. This is a good option right?!

Moody

Its no secret, I love a moody looking bedroom...especially ones that still feel light an airy.
 
 
This one would be pretty awful for sleeping in given the skylight right above the bed, but I love the lumbar pillow and I also kind of like the fur blanket for winter time...is that weird?  Sadie would love it and Alex approved...so maybe a similar one will make an appearance in my house some day.


The painting above the bed kind of creeps me out, but I like the idea of a dark painting and dark bedding combined with light walls, duvet and shams.

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.
