My Current State


(My apologies for the awful picture quality.)

So I'm now officially in waiting mode for this baby. My due date is this Saturday, August 28th, and I can't wait for this little baby to arrive! I'm trying to stay on top of laundry, keeping the house clean, and stocking the house with all the little things Miss J might need, but otherwise, all I'm doing is waiting. And just to keep things nice and crazy, J has decided that her crib is no longer a suitable place for her to sleep, so we are moving her to a "big girl bed" this week. My little baby is turning into a big girl and getting ready to be a big sister...what a week!
Fingers crossed for a new, healthy arrival soon! Stay tuned!

Chairloom






Chairloom is a super-cool local company that is picking up lots of well-deserved press for their amazing work. They use chic, modern fabrics to reupholster old furniture. They sell unfinished pieces, pieces they have re-done themselves, or you can being your own piece to them to have reupholstered. I would love one of their chairs or stools in my house!

Tucker for Target




Check out these amazing pieces from Tucker coming to Target September 12th! I can't wait! These flowy tops and dresses are exactly what I'm going to be looking for post-baby, so I am especially excited!
They are only going to be available until October 7th, so don't miss your chance!

Madewell Summer Sale


One of my favorite new shops, Madewell, is having a big summer sale starting now, and free shipping if you order $100 or more! Lucky for me (unlucky for my credit card), I'm heading back into normal clothing sizes soon, and and particularly psyched for some new attire! Get over there now- you'll be glad you did!

WANTED


I've been currently obsessing over grey, textured boots, particularly some of the ones I've seen on my favorite Bravo shows- "Flipping Out" and "9 By Design." I recently found these beauties and can't stop thinking about them! Sadly, they are not in my size (9), and I can't find them anywhere. Any hot tips, please send them my way! xo

These are also on the list- not grey, but absolute perfection nonetheless!

Twinkle Twinkle






1,2,3,4

You can't get much more celebratory that sequins, am I right? I always struggle with this because I absolutely love the look of a sequin top or skirt, but can never find an occasion to wear them...New Years? Bachelorette parties? Clubbing? When would you wear sequins?

Cake Balls




I have been drooling over everything over at Bakerella for the last hour, and have subsequently fallen in love with these little Cake Balls. They are a terrific idea! And Bakerella even has a cookbook coming out of all different cake balls and cake pops and fun ways to decorate them. So clever! I can't wait to try these!
