By this point, you guys know I'm a big fan of Amazon - I mean, I think most of us are. Between the pandemic/going out less, the ease of their delivery, shopping for work and family/household stuff, I'm usually putting at least one order in a week. And while I do have good luck with most things, I definitely have sent a lot back. What I mean is while you can find gems on there, there are obviously items that don't live up to your standards too, and I'm pretty choosy with what I end up keeping. ...
Candles Under $20 I Can’t Stop Burning
Alright soooo my candle collection is a little out of hand at this point but when I find a good one, I can't help but to buy one (...or two). Can you blame me? I feel like a lot of women are like this, right? I light a candle at least once a day, usually one in my office while I work and another in the living room or my bathroom in the evening, and love how they can set the mood - let alone let off a nice fragrance. So in my mind, you can just never have enough. ...
7 Ideas for Valentine’s Day In
As I mentioned in this post with Gift Ideas for Valentine's Day, Austin and I usually keep things pretty casual. I think we did the whole Vday dinner out a couple times and realized that with the upcharges for dinner, long waits, and all that, we preferred to stay in. And now that we have George and baby on the way, it feels even more special to stay in and celebrate love at home.
If you're staying in this year, here are some fun ideas that I've come up with to celebrate. Austin and I have actually done a few of these before and I'm thinking we'll go with a cheese board, chocolate tasting and a cute movie with George this year. ...
JANUARY TOP 10
Alright, we survived the first month of the new year! Between announcing the news of the baby and a little staycation for Austin's birthday, this month honestly flew by for me. I loved seeing this month's Top 10 and that you seem to like a mix of high and low prices/items which is how I like to shop. Keep reading for your favorite picks of the month - from Amazon fashion to more home-focused pieces. Remember that you can shop everything I'm posting right here at all times. ...
4 Ways to Style Your Bed
For as much as I like home design and switching up the details of our living room shelves, entryway, etc., I honestly don't change my bedding up too often. I guess that means I love our situation, and I do, but after seeing these linen pillows a couple weeks ago, I immediately had to try them out. From there, I figured I might as well try a few different styles to share with y'all and to see what I liked best. ...
What’s In My Nightstand
Is anyone else fascinated by what's in someone's personal space? Whether it's a good 'what's in my bag' or 'what's in my grocery cart', I'm always interested in that stuff - have been since I was a little girl. So after cleaning out my nightstand last week (which...was a disaster), I decided to share exactly what I keep in there. Let me know if you're into this more BTS content of everyday life, and I can share more of it. If it's totally boring, please let me know as well. ...
Office Essentials For a Chic + Organized Space
When we built our house, I knew I wanted a dedicated office space that felt not only organized but inspirational. My job obviously involves a lot of creativity, so while the functionality of it was key, so was the aesthetic. And while I still love my office, I did want to browse the internet for a few ways to spruce it up for 2021. Because couldn't we all use a fresh start this year? ...
Chicken Teriyaki Veggie Bowls
We've been making a lot of bowls lately, and this Teriyaki Chicken recipe has been one of our favorites. It's incredibly easy, and George will eat it too — so it saves us extra time in the kitchen preparing meals. Win-win!
If you've been curious about the Always Pan I did a formal review in this post, but it's on sale for Black Friday and under $100 with code SUPERSALE (which makes it the lowest price of the year). I have two and highly recommend — you won't regret it! ...
Thanksgiving Tablescape Decor
I cannot believe we're two weeks out from Thanksgiving as I write this. Well actually, 2020 has felt prettyyyy long at the same time, ha! Anyways, one of my favorite parts of home decor is table styling. I love turning on some music, grabbing a cup of coffee or wine, and bringing my tablescape vision to life - especially around the holidays. ...
5 Aesthetically-Pleasing Decor Hacks
Ever since sharing my kitchen sink tray a while back, I've gotten a few questions on other "hacks" I have around the house. To be honest, I had never really thought of the kitchen situation as a hack, but I guess it is! When decorating, I always try to find ways to make eyesores a bit more appealing - all while keeping in mind functionality. And while it's not always achieved; believe me, I have those closets stuffed with things too, I do my best! ...
