school wants and needs

back to school wants:

- new book bag, ideally a larger everyday purse
- new jeans, skinnies, indigo to dark wash
- a gold runway michael kors watch
- more tops, cardigans, and a cute cropped jacket

back to school needs:

- a larger or more organized planner. my kate spade desk calender is just not kickin' it anymore.
- calming music, treasures that are not on the everyday radio
- mac cosmetics pro-longwear lipcreme lipstick, the accessory i now cannot live without

i chose for back to school to get the nordstrom's bp. 'runway' boot ... basically, in my opinion it's an updated version of the steve madden intyce boots i owned and wore in previous posts. they've seen their days and most likely will not be seeing day light until the next rodeo. but for now, i invested in the bp. runway boot from nordstrom's. a perfect staple piece for fall.

being that i am beginning my fifth year of college, it's technically my last time to enjoy the fall "back to school" shopping. the huge problem being that i have expenses which include wanting  to redecorate our bedroom. roughly about three more weeks until school starts back up and we move into a master bedroom. still writing down ideas and collecting pictures for bedroom ideas. look forward to before and after pictures in the months to come!


as for now, check out my boards on pinterest here! au revoir!

a day off equals a day back

more than not, my mind has been in more places than one. to unwind and not get all worked up by the daily stresses of life, i've decided to continue with my love of pinning on pinterest. with the a busy summer of a new job, an amazing boyfriend, loving family my life has never felt so scattered, yet so at home all at the same time.

with all the excitement of finally moving into a master bedroom with a much bigger closet and bathroom, my home decorating skills are going to be tested. i mostly just wanted to share my inspirations with everyone on here.  keeping in mind the man in my life wants a dark room and i want a all white, he is the yin to my yang. lol.. or the other way around.

beiges and ivorys with slight pops of color tend to be my favorites. please share your opinion!


i'd like to say thank you to all those who have been so supportive to me in these last couple of months. rough times are much easier to go through when you choose to be around those you love.
