August Wishlist

It's been so long since I've done one of these but I'm having a black and gold moment so I though I would share! When going through my recent faved items, I noticed a trend: black, gold, and sleek lines. Despite my love of all things bright and colorful, I wear black 95% of the time so all of this is right up my alley! As always, everything is under $100.

May Wishlist

Maybe it's because Mad Men is back, but I've really been digging tribal prints in bright, saturated colors and lots of metallics. I've got 1968 on my mind! I can totally see Megan Draper wearing these things if she were a modern woman.

Color Crush: Lemon Chiffon

It's been so nice and warm here in North Texas that I'm craving spring and all the bright colors it brings. Especially yellow!

Retail Therapy and Pinterest Faves

You may have noticed things have been a bit slow around here. As you know, last Monday I started my new job and on Thursday I slipped and fell at work, breaking my elbow! It's a small fracture that will heal without a cast, but I have major bruising, a very limited range of motion, and can't lift anything. I also sprained my wrist and had a mild concussion. I'm thankful that I wasn't hurt worse but it's been a crazy past few days.

I thought I'd share some of the things I've been loving on Pinterest lately.

This hilarious octopus doing stranded color work. 

Colors are super inspiring to me and right now I'm loving mint paired with orange. 

This outfit just kills me! The pixelated shirt, the bloomer style shorts, and those fringe boots!

 Perfect outfit for a little girl!

I think I may have the quilting bug and I haven't even started one yet. There are just so many to like! Like this gorgeous triangles quilt by Blue is Bleu. 

I also got to spend a bit of my christmas money, buying some new bras from Soma (best ever), the Robecca Steam Monster High Doll, and these two awesome things from ModCloth:

The grey dress is a perfect wardrobe staple that can be worn year round and that cardigan has been tempting me for months! I just couldn't resist the lace and gradient yarn. Lucky for me, it stuck around in the the shop and I got it on sale for $35!

That's all the exciting things going on around here.
