I’ve been collecting images of family rooms that I love for some time now, long before I ever thought of starting my own blog. I want to share these images with you, and if you know the photo source, please let me know so that I can give credit. Most of the living rooms featured have muted, neutral tones that I find so peaceful and relaxing. I admire how these living rooms are layered with elements that provide visual interest, something I find very hard to achieve. Sometimes, after the basics go in, I get lost on what to do next to completely finish a room to give it that interesting look, while still being comfortable to live in. I will be detailing my efforts in the coming weeks and would love your feed back. For now, enjoy these family room images:)
A gorgeous blogging buddy from Houston invited me to participate in a boot camp, Houston Area Adventure Boot Camp, the longest-running boot camp in the Houston area. Over the last seven years…
I’m giddy typing this next sentence- contributing author, Jennifer of The Chronicles of Home, is back with a beautiful, healthy recipe that features one of my favorite indulgences- lobster! …
Good morning friends! Thank you so much for your enthusiastic response to my Mid Year Life Reset post. I really enjoy those kinds of “productive/live your best life” posts and…
How’s your week going friends? I’m just over here counting down the days ’til the 2017 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale like a kid at Christmas! It’s so close, opening this Thursday for cardholders. ??I got a friendly letter in the mail letting me know they upped my limit just in time for the sale- #thankyouverymuch! We’ll keep this little detail to ourselves and not bother the hubby with that tidbit of info! 😉 Are you excited?!?! Of course, I’ll be sharing my picks on Thursday and then a big ‘ole dressing room round up on Friday with fit tips and recommendations. Let me know what you have questions about and I’ll do my best investigative journalism for ya!
This swingy striped! cold shoulder dress is perfect for daytime or evenings out. Love the simplicity of it and the drapey fabric. Such a steal at right under $50! For a daytime look, you could wear it with the #10 sandals (they have lots of colors) & for evening, these black open toe heeled sandals would be great.
Show off your summer mani with this gorgeous, chic statement ring! I like to wear it on my first or middle finger on my right hand with a bold bracelet.
I’m sure you’ve heard me rave about this maxi dress before. Every time I wear it, I get tons of compliments and it’s really flattering and comfortable. It’s on sale under $40! I wear XS.
High waist leggings will be your BFF, I swear! They keep you all nice and tucked in and make you feel great while working out. Zella quality is always superb, and this pair comes in three colors with criss-cross detail at the calf. They run TTS, I wear size XS.
Although I normally wear a tank to workout, this Zella tee is my go-to when I want a t-shirt. The seams in the shirt are perfectly placed to help the illusion of a smaller waist and I like the cut of the sleeves that don’t irritate me when I’m working out.
My go-to tank, $11!!! I think I need to stock up on the other colors. It’s perfect for wearing alone or layering under cardigans or other tops. It fits TTS, XS here.
I have the older version of these sandals and they are really good! They come in tons of colors and the “beige leather” has a snakeskin pattern that goes with everything. Sam Edelman makes quality shoes that last, so I highly recommend them!
This Saturday will be 7 weeks until my bikini contest. Seven weeks sounds so much shorter than 8 weeks, less than 2 months away. I’m getting a little freaked out…
Wanting to change up my meals, I made tuna salad this week. It’s so easy to prepare because you’re not cooking anything (except boiling eggs if you want egg whites…

Did you realize that you ended up getting the exact mirrors in one of your inspiration photos? How cool is that that you found them! Was that planned, or subliminal decorating?
love the chairs with the yellow pillows!
