So Fabulous

... are these star cuffs. A perfect summer accessory. Really my friends, what wouldn't these great gold pieces go with?

What can I say

This is a beautiful motto to live by...

Coffee Cup Crush

Adorable, isn't it? Have you had your cup today?

Happy Weekend

Finally... the weekend is here and it's going to be beautiful! I have a State Park hike planned for tomorrow morning, lunch with the bestie and {major} drinks in the p.m. Don't you just love those kind of days? So tell me friends, what are you going to do this weekend? Is it supposed to be nice out where you're at?

I'm in Love

It seems as though I had forgotten how fabulously well orange and gray go together. What can I say, this color combination is pure PERFECTION!

Leather Lust

I can almost smell these gorgeous leather pieces through the screen. The smell, the feel, the color... is there anything more intoxicating or more perfect than leather?

What can I say

... if you're not sure what to wear, wear red! Because red, my friends, is H O T!!

Easy DIY Item

An antique frame + yarn + clothes pins = A pretty amazing inspiration board!

 

Green with Envy

Personally, I don't wear a lot of green but friends, I'm not sure why because after looking at these pictures, a pop of green is exactly what I need!!

Easy DIY Item

I feel like I'm turning into a Martha Stewert wannabe but this DIY stuff is fun! And this my friends, looks like a perfect project for me this weekend. I have a plain bookshelf like this in my office and would love to dress it up a bit with some great b&w wallpaper! This project actually kinda reminds me of this one.

Obviously

...the more the better. Just like these.

Dear future Fiancé

... I want this ring.

Host JT

I'll watch SNL every now and then but just had to watch this weekend's season finale with JT and Gaga. Great show!! Loved the Liquorville and 3-way skits! Here's a little pic of JT to show you just exactly why the show was so great to watch this weekend... Enjoy!!

Painted Floors

These painted floors are a perfect alternative to the basic carpet, wood or vinyl options that most of us choose. From random designs to creative stenciling, this type of flooring certainly adds interest, color and beauty to any room!! Let's get painting!

Happy Friday

Happy Friday my Lovlies! I'm so glad the weekend is finally here as life has been quite the whirlwind lately! I just haven't been able to catch up since I got back into town from Boston. Not that I think this weekend is going to be any less busy { because I already have a mile long to-do list } but I think I'll be able to throw in a little fun in the mix ;-) Oh, and I might catch the movie Bridesmaids on Sunday... have you seen it yet? Looks hillarious! Have a great weekend friends!! Make sure you get some fun in too :-)

Simply. Stunning.

I love when kate rocks curls! Just like she did here.

I'm So Excited

Happy Friday my dears! How was your week? I am SOO thrilled the weekend is finally here because I'm flying out to Boston tomorrow to go to the NBA Playoffs!! It's the Celtics vs Heat baby! And we have third row seats!! So yes, if you didn't know, I'm a gigantic basketball fan. And who am I rooting for? The Heat, of course, because that's the team my boyfriend LBJ plays on! He's so adorable. I could just eat him!!

And if you live in the Boston area, do you have any places you recommend we visit or must see spots? This is my first time to the area and would love some tourist tips!!

Current Obsession

I'm not quite sure what needs to be said besides I LOVE this look! How fabulous would this up-do be with a LBD on a Friday night? Anything that results in a second glance or an 'oh my gosh' is amazing in my book. Friends, this is certainly a second glance look! 

Perfectly Placed

I've mentioned this a few thousand times before but I love tattoos. I've always favored the smaller, more conspicuous ones but this one really caught me eye. It's perfectly positioned and perfectly shaped. And how cute would this look with a bikini top? I know... VERY! Anyone up for getting one with me?? Oh, and if you're curious, the script says regret nothing. What would your word or phrase say?

Tuesday Crushes

This beautiful backless blouse...

This stunning black chocker...

These perfect summer heels...

These fabulous feather earrings...

This magnificiently matched beige...

These gorgeous leather heels...

These adorable knit shorts...

Current Obsession

Fishnets. These pictures say it all. They're classy, sophisticated and oh so sexy! Ladies, a pair of gorgeous black fishnets have now been added to the top of my must-buy list. I think my man in will be very happy with that.

Headboard Alternatives

I've preached this before but I think headboards are the most important part of any bedroom. Their presence alone adds so much to a room! I've been obsessed with upholstered headboards for the longest time but now, I'm loving headboard alternatives... planks of wood nailed strategically to the wall or two old scrapped doors perfectly placed. These, my friends, are exactly what I'm talking about...

New Product I H♥art

They say one reason we don't use the exercise equipment we buy is because we don't ever really know how to use it... and I agree! When I look at my gym ball, all I see is a ball that collects dust. But did you know you can use it to do a ton of ab exercises that works that core of yours? {Think summer & swimsuits girls!} And the exercises are printed right on the ball so you never have to wonder how the heck to use it.... Brilliant!! TrainerBrands carries foam rollers and yoga mats that have moves printed on them too! I just love this idea!

Simply. Stunning.

Kate. As gorgeous as always.

 

Easy DIY Item

I've seen wood pallets recycled into chairs, coffee tables, and headboards but honestly, those are kinda big projects! These pallet wall shelves though, are completely do-able! How great would these look in the cabin up North or at the winter ski lodge? The rustic look is gorgeous & oh so unique!

Happy Weekend

Ok my friends, do you want the good news or bad news first? The bad news? Ok, well it's freezing today here in Minnesota! Actually, this whole weekend is suppose to be cold & I don't like it one little bit!! I wanted it to be nice and sunny so that I could get the ol' bike out of the garage :-(  So, now onto the good news... It's the weekend!! Doesn't the sound of that just put a big smile on your face? It does for me! Friends, have any plans for this weekend?

Simple Love

I'm beginning to think that simplicity should have been my middle name. Everything that appeals to me is simple or subtle or almost even plain. And I guess that's why these gorgeous tables caught my eye... they consist of only wood pieces and metal legs. To me, they're brilliantly simple. I'm in love!
