Renovation Diaries

Happy Friday this and thatters! If you follow me on insta you know that Matt and I are renovating our home!  It's probably more accurate to call it an out and out gut job, ha.  We have removed the entire roof, tons of windows etc. etc. I thought it would be fun to document our journey here!  It has been a fun journey so far.  Everyone asks me if demo is hard and for me it isn't because I love seeing big progress each and everyday!  I know there will be days and even weeks that I can't really tell that anything is happening so I am relishing this time.   For my first post on our reno I thought it would be fun to post some before pics of our place and a some demo shots as well.  Enjoy!! xoxo Here are the before pics of our little casa!

Happy Saturday this and thatters!  I'm excited for a low key weekend.  I hope you have a great one and enjoy this edition of what's what. xoxo 1.  Banana Republic Shoes I died when I saw these shoes on BR insta account.  I immediately ordered them.  The online reviews were very favorable as were the insta comments.  I went back and forth on colors but finally settled on this fun pink!  I figured these would spice up any black dress or otherwise blah outfit. They are also 40% off (as are all full price items right now) when using the code BRFORTY at checkout. Click here! 2.  Dr. Shefali's 7 day Conscious Parenting Challenge I've talked about meditation before on my blog before.  I truly love it and it is something I do every day.  It may only be a 1-3 minute meditation but it definitely happens.   When I saw that Dr. Shefali was doing a 7 day parenting challenge I was ecstatic.  If you don't...

Fabulous Finds!

Hey sweet friends!  I love sharing with you items that make my life easier or better.  That is one reason why I really love fabulous finds and I hope you do too.  :)  xoxo 1.  Govino Wine Glasses I got these awesome glasses as a gift and I am truly obsessed.  I've thanked the person that gave them to me about 10 times.  These are amazing "plastic", stemless, dishwasher safe wine glasses that I adore.  Being outside with the kiddos it's hard to bring a nice wine glass outside or really any glass besides my tervis tumbler and these glasses are the cure all for me.  They are several different shapes and sizes and thankfully they are on amazon.com! Click here! 2.  Meditation Made Easy One thing that has truly helped me in the past year or so has been mediation.  I get that it can be daunting, scary, intimidating or seem not important but my belief is that anytime spent with yourself is valuable ...

Happy Saturday this and thatters!  I hope you are loving this HOT weekend and getting to have some fun.  I, also, hope you enjoy this edition of what's what! xoxo 1.  Ballet Slippers by Essie I have been looking for the perfect white/petal pink/inside of a sea shell nail color for a while now.  When I was getting my nails done recently the technician suggested ballet slippers and letting her do 3 coats!  HOLY amazing outcome.  I am now obsessed and have been wearing the color religiously.  Try it and you won't be sorry! Click here! 2.  Nordstrom Anniversary Sale:  Early Access If your a nordstrom card holder you can get early access into their sale right now.  Oh boy is it a good sale too!  I spent Thursday and Friday night looking through the sale and trying to decide what I wanted.  Below are a few items I snapped up and cannot wait to receive!

Click here! 2.  Gallery Wall I am dying over the cute, affordable prints from gallery wall (sold at Etsy).  They are fun, casual and you can customize them.  I ordered some prints for the nursery and I cannot wait for them to arrive.  I found some awesome...

Happy Saturday this and thatters!  We are just getting in from the beach so this post is brief but enjoy!  xoxo 1.  Reinventing Your Bathing Suit I have to tell you that trying to find decent maternity bathing suits is nearly impossible.  So far I've been making my non-maternity ones and the one maternity suit I like work.  However, when I read one of my fav blogs (link below) about reinventing your suits I was thrilled.  What a quick and easy way to shake things up!  I tried it today and loved it.   Click here! 2.  Sales, Sales, Sales Have you seen all the amazing sales going on right now?  Nordstrom, Anthro and Tory Burch.  Such great deals happening right now so if you've had your eye on something now is the time to buy!   I got some great stuff that I can wear while pregnant and hopefully after!  Be sure to check out the sales.   Nordstrom I picked up this super cute vest...
