MIA

So sorry, I have been so MIA as of late.  I moved and we just got our internet re-connected.  One day my like (aka my room) won't look like a tornado hit.  Here is my life lately...via my new iPhone that I am love, love, LOVING...

My room still doesn't look much better...

 

Deciding on paint colors.  After 5 "testers" from Benjamin Moore Stonington Gray won!

Closet project...do not attempt alone.

Wearing Tom's at work because they were the only shoes that didn't hurt my feet.

Finally!

I finally joined 2012, well for that matter 2010, and purchased the iPhone 5.  Which of course gives me a perfect excuse to buy something pretty.  Being me, I want it to be cute and to go with other staples in my purse.

Planner, Wallet, Make-Up Case

These are my favorite options, thoughts?

Mission Organization Part I

It's moving time!  Which of course means time to purge all the junk you have collected and didn't even know you had.  I am hoping to purge some ugliness that is my closet, even though I am hoarder and always think it will come back in style one day.  And with the purging comes the organizing.  I want to turn a top drawer in my dresser into a jewelry drawer for all my costume jewelry.  

My current system is just not working anymore...

Here is how I would like it to look...

Kate Davidson Hudson's drawer (mine will be lacking the fabulous drama and labels)

ShoeMint's aka Rachel Bilson jewelry stash.

Wish me luck while I hunt for the right organizers and motivation to complete this project!

Emmy Favorites

Award season has officially started!  The Emmy's were on Sunday and I think  Jimmy Kimmel did an amazing job, from the opening to having Tracy Morgan fake passing out on stage.  I am bummed Jim Parsons didn't win for The Big Bang Theory but thrilled that Claire Danes won for Homeland.  It was hard, but I picked my top fave five of the night:

Zooey Deschanel; sweet and still quirky.

Julie Bowen, lerve the lime.

Claire Danes, pregnant and fabulous.

Emily Vancamp, how perfect is that bow bangle?

Kerry Washington; flawless.

Happy Monday!  I hope everyone had a good weekend.  Fall is officially here, and I hope you welcomed it with open arms and lots of football watching.  I sure did, watching 2 out of my 3 home teams wins (way to break my heart GT).

Fall is in the Air...

The morning air is having the slightest chill and I am loving it.  I haven't broken out the boots and scarves yet but I have been staring at my boot boxes knowing that I will breaking them free soon.  Once the weather changes I feel the need to update my season's wardrobe.  Here are some of my fave recent purchases...

Booties, Jeans

Hope everyone else is enjoying the air, can't wait for FALL!

I only have a 2 day work week before heading to Atlanta for a long weekend of birthday celebrations and bridal showers.  I wanted to share some quotes that I have been loving lately.

Loving everything in this picture.  The weather lately has been amazing...I cannot wait for fall and maybe finally making a trip to the Forsyth Park Farmer's Market on Saturday.

Have a great week!

Summer Style: Work

With the thermometer on the rise, I have changed up my work wardrobe a little bit.  When, I lived in Atlanta I wore pants and whatever shirt was in front of me.  The same is not to be said in Savannah; with my commute being faster and the humidity being higher I find myself searching for a better working wardrobe that can do from day to night and sustain the heat.

In dream world I would accessorize and wear cute wedges.  In the real world I throw a dress over my head and run out the back door.

Dress: Lilly Pullitzer
Real World:  Sam Edelman Gigi // Michele White Watch // Rebecca Minkoff Crossbody
Dream World:
Tory Burch Wedges // Michael Kors Watch // BaubleBar Initial Bracelet // Marc by Marc Jacobs Hobo

I have always loved Lauren Conrad's style...and I am especially loving Paper Crown's office!

Happy Monday!  I have been enjoying (minus the heat) the summer as much as I can...celebrating the long days and cooler nights.

Summer Summer Summertime

The weather changed and I became MIA on here.  I have been soaking up as much sun on the weekends as possibly and being lazy throughout the week.  I love summertime, it always goes by too fast.  I cannot believe that Fourth of July is only a week away! Here are some snapshots of an ideal summer for me...

Beach time, Easy summer attire (including the occasional "trashy" tee), and delicious. easy to make meals.

Wishlist Wednesday

This wishlist is dedicated to my domestic goddess, that has yet to come out.  I have daydreams at work that when I get home I will actually want to clean the house, put everything in its own little spot, and worst of all iron. I do not iron unless it becomes an absolute necessity.  Anywhoooo…my daydreams lately have consisted of the organization kind and if I ever make it The Container Store {or a container department in Target} I hope my belongings will look similar to these.

Friday Friday Friday

Sorry, I have been MIA this week.  I had an amazing weekend with 2 of my besties visiting for the Memorial Day holiday...

Went to Hucapoo's last night and can say without a doubt for once the hype was actually true!

Love this picture...I want my back porch to look like this, yesterday.  Maybe I will DIY one day.

With of all of the rain Savannah has been experiencing lately I have been reading.  Yes, I finally caved and started The Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy and let me just tell you the first one was a little racy for my blood but the plot of the second one had me enthralled and I finished it within 36 hours! Onto the third...

Enjoy your weekend, rain or shine!

For the Love of Stripes

image {via}

I have always been a fan of stripes.  They can dress up anything with the snap of a finger, whether it be a pillow on solid couch or chair or as a pop of interest in your wardrobe.  Cannes is in full force and seeing all of the pictures of everyone in their Parisian Chicness, I couldn't stop thinking of the quintessential Parisian look of stripes.  Since Bastille Day is right around the corner (I have little French in me, so celebrations are in order!) I wanted to share some of my favorite stripes at the moment...

Love Love LOVE this from Mackenzie Horan.  It is so true, the little things can make all the difference.

While browsing on Etsy yesterday, I discovered Devon Baer.  How amazing is this tulip skirt?!  I'll take all three of these outfits please.

I don't know if y'all have gotten the "office environment" e-mail that has been circulating but it is absolutely adorable, hilarious, and true.  The two above are my favorites!

Off to enjoy my coffee and watch my new found favorite morning show, Good Morning America!  They get me a good mood first thing in the morning and I love them for it {as do my co-workers}.
