On My Radar

After taking a red-eye on Sunday night, I was feeling a little off at the beginning of the week. I took a 30-minute nap right when I got home around 6 am and then just hit the ground running for the day. By 10 pm, I was so confused as to why I felt like…

Tweed Mules

You know what I realized about this outfit when I was cropping photos? I posted a nearly identical outfit three and a half years ago. And by “nearly identical,” I mean identical. It just goes to show that sticking to the classics pays off in the long run. I like that I can look back…

My New Espresso Maker

I gave up using disposable coffee cups this year. I’ve only used eight TOTAL for 2019, seven of which were from miscommunications at cafés, where they either forgot or didn’t hear that I wanted a drink “to stay.” To be honest, I LOVE it and it’s really been such a positive experience beyond the direct…

Fall Mood Board

I did this last year and it was one of my favorite posts to put together. I don’t really do this for other seasons, although maybe I should? Since the weather has been all over the place and less than inspiring (more like “sweat weather” instead of “sweater weather”), I’m relying on the ~idea~ of…

Tulip Sleeve in OLIVE

I am on a MAJOR green kick lately. I’ve always loved green, especially in the fall, but I’ve been drawn to it even more than usual. So much so that I literally was Googling color psychology to see if it meant anything. (😂 That isn’t something I would normally do but I was really trying to…

Fall Touches

I’m starting to incorporate some fall touches throughout our house. We’re out of town this weekend, so I’ll probably be doing another “sweep” through the house. To be honest, I think our front porch is largely the extent of my big fall decorating. I’ll just add a few things in each room to bring some…

On My Radar

Okay, hands down, the major highlight from this week was Sunday. Mike’s family is so much fun– we celebrated his older sister’s birthday with good ol’ fashioned fun and games. Sack races, bobbing for apples, and velcro ball tosses. I can’t remember the last time I laughed so hard. Things, naturally, got competitive, and I was…

Adding Some Leopard

Today’s post comes with a bonus pic from the year 2000. (At least I’m pretty sure 2000, maybe 1999?) I just had to include it 😉 I have been pretty into leopard accessories (namely in the form of shoes) over the past few years, but haven’t quite ventured into the clothing department. In large part due…
