02.01.20- Our First Wedding Anniversary

It’s a special day today! It’s our 1 year wedding anniversary, we made it!

One year ago today was one of the best days of my life, everything I could of ever dreamed of for our day. It was perfect! I’m sharing more photos from our big day below .

As for our first year of marriage, it was pretty amazing. Now of course we had our ups and downs and lots of big changes happened in 2020 especially with everything going on with the pandemic. During our first year married, Travis started a new job, lost that job due to the pandemic and quickly made a career change and got a new job. I quit my 9-5 to pursue my dream and work for myself. We moved from Orlando to Sarasota. Tons of things happened during our first year! Truthfully it was rough but still amazing and perfect to do as a partnership, it all brought us closer together. We are stronger than ever and come out on top!

Mid Century Modern Bedroom Inspo with AllModern

Happy Wednesday Friends!

Happy new year again as well! I don’t know about you but this year I’ve been playing with revamping my space for the new year and new chapter. I’m so excited to share with you some fun mid century modern bedroom inspiration from AllModern as I think we are all still revamping our space especially and making everything fresh again!

My favorite space is definitely the bedroom, I love a light and airy room paired with a little contrast which I think you can see from see of these AllModern pieces I pulled. I added a feminine touch with the blush toned bedding option and some different texture as well. I really love home décor and interior design as you all know and I really love the pieces AllModern has to offer. They have something for everyone no matter what you are looking for or room you are trying to revamp. They are the perfect place to shop and super affordable as well with tons of options.

Concetta Armchair // More Mid-Century Chairs	Arlene Duvet Set // More Duvet Covers	Williams Dresser // More Mid-Century Dressers
Williams Nightstand // More MCM Nightstands	Williams Bed // More Mid-Century Modern Beds	Huron Lamp // More Mid-Century Modern Lamps

I absolutely love these mid century modern pieces for the bedroom and really played with neutral tones and textures with the leather chair and soft blush bedding and I love the contrast of those pieces in the same room. The bedroom is meant to be a relaxing peaceful place and I think this combination paired with some sheer white curtains would be the best bedroom upgrade!

You can shop all these pieces with the links on the left as well as check out some other inspiration here: Keep the bedroom inspiration going with AllModern for: Mid-Century Modern Bedroom Furniture, Queen Beds, Headboards, Mid-Century Modern Bedrooms We Love

Dressing Up in 2021

Happy Wednesday Friends!

I wanted to talk about dressing up this year as 2020 was kind of a wash when it came to wearing our fancy dresses and those special occasion heels right?

So this year I’m talking advantage of any outing to wear one of my cute outfits or even over dress and where the sparkle and everything and just be a little bit extra to make up for last year and not getting any opportunity to wear all the fun clothes!

That being said I’m sharing below one of my favorite fancy dresses currently from Maggy London, I’m obsessed with this emerald green number that is perfect for a wedding or the holiday season. The midi length keeps it super classy and you can still show off your favorite pair of shoes!

Are you wearing all the fun clothes this year that didn’t get a moment last year?

Shopping Your Closet

Happy Wednesday friends!

Y’all know I love a good t-shirt and I’ve been loving t-shirts from RiffRaff and their unique pieces! I absolutely love this one of The Holiday for the holiday season and all year round! I paired it with this LC Lauren Conrad velvet skirt and Steve Madden heels that were already in my closet.

I’m working on shopping my own closet more this year and focusing more on quality pieces or quantity. Not only saving money but really asking myself how much I love a piece before purchasing it!

What is your must have piece in your closet?

My 2021 Goals & Word Of The Year

Happy New Year Friends!

The past few years I chosen a word for the year and really like the concept so we are keeping with tradition this year. In 2020 my word was CHANGE and oh there was A LOT of change! To some up 2020 for us, we got married, the world then shut down, Travis lost his job but get a 10x better one, I quit my 9-5 to give my all to my business, we moved from Orlando to Sarasota and that basically wraps up 2020 for us.

On to 2021 my word this year is STRENGTH. With all the change that happened last year I want to gain strength in my life and show strength in my business and life as well. That being said I’ve spent the last few weeks setting goals both personal & business. These aren’t resolutions because truthfully I never ever stick to resolutions but last year writing goals down and making a vision board for those things were a huge help, 2/3 of those goals were accomplished and I couldn’t be more proud!

So cheers to 2021! I hope y’all have an awesome start to the new year!

My 29th Birthday and Lessons I'm Taking With Me!

Happy Wednesday again friends!

Today’s post is a BIG birthday post! Today is actually my mom’s birthday and I celebrated my 29th birthday on Monday! So today I’m sharing a fun birthday look with some lessons I’m taking into the last year in my 20’s along with a birthday note to my mom!

So far my 20’s have taught me a lot! I’m grateful for the lessons and the growth over the past several years! I learned about being in a relationship through long distance and then knowing it was wanted and who I wanted to be with forever. I’ve learned you can be confident in who you are and still want to grow and change at the same time! I’ve learned with people in my life it’s quality over quantity. It’s ok to say NO to plans and take time for yourself, that’s OK! I’ve learned not to compare myself to anyone as I’m on my own path on my own journey and I’ll get to where I’m supposed to be when I should be there. These are just a few important lessons the last 8 years have taught me! I’m grateful for them! My 29th year I’m focusing on my health and growing ('in business, personally, and in life) before the big 3-0 next year! AHHHH! I’m so excited for this next trip around the sun and all it has to hold!

Today is my mom’s birthday and I want to take a minute to celebrate her! She’s my best friend and I’m so blessed that she is my mom! As I’ve gotten older I’m more and more grateful for the relationship with my mom and everything she does for me! She’s so special and just the best ever and I’m so lucky she’s my mom! I could go on and on! I have some of my favorite moments with her below! Love you mom!

Happy Holidays!

Happy Christmas Eve Eve friends!

I hope y’all are enjoying the holiday season even though it looks different for a lot of us this year. It’s very different for us as we usually travel up north to visit family and to stay safe we are staying home in Florida this year. That being said we appreciate the opportunity to stay home and enjoy our new place and our décor. Living so close to my parents again we’ve gotten to really soak in the holiday traditions and festivities that are usually rushed, which has been amazing!

We will be doing our own Christmas Eve here at our place and celebrating Christmas with my parents! I’ve really enjoyed decorating our new place for the holidays and this is a look at our tree and some of the decorating!

I hope you have a great holiday however you are celebrating! Lot’s of love!

Dining Room Details with AllModern

Happy Monday Friends!

I have a fun dining room reveal to share with you today, sponsored by AllModern.

We recently moved into a new apartment that offered us space for a small dining room area and found the perfect set from AllModern. AllModern offers tons of options for any space you have, whether a small apartment or a large home they have great options for you! With the holidays among us we were in need of a cute and functional dining set that was also affordable. This set was at a great price point and came with the table and chairs which are so comfortable and easily go with any space!

You can find the set HERE the chairs come in tons of different colors and it’s currently on sale! It’s a great deal and also super easy to put together yourself! Again this is great for an apartment or would be perfect in a breakfast nook or small eating space in a home. This set seats four people comfortably as well as make the space feel larger since the table top is glass. I love the gold elements of the table and chair legs that they go with everything and act as a neutral in the apartment. I can’t say enough good things about AllModern and everything they offer. Make sure to check them out!

Holiday Planning

Happy Wednesday Friends!

Can you believe we are less than 3 weeks from Christmas already? Sadly the holidays just aren’t the same this year! We won’t be traveling this year to stay safe so it’s a Florida Christmas for us.

I’m finishing up my shopping this week and doing all the things! Wrapping, baking, and holiday prep are underway! We have all the decorations and lights up so that makes things a little brighter…right?

That being said I wanted to share another kind of everyday look with y’all I promise winter clothes and sweaters are coming soon but let’s be honest we only get like two weeks of cold weather here in Florida!

This has been one of my favorite dresses recently from Old Navy and super comfortable flats from Vionic and bag from LC Lauren Conrad! This is an everyday look for me super comfortable yet still put together!

Everyday Look & How You Can Work With Me

Happy Wednesday Friends!

Hope y’all had a great Thanksgiving holiday and got some much needed R and R. I wanted to share this everyday look with you something you will catch me in a lot in the cooler months unless it gets super cold here in FL. I love dresses from Old Navy and this is my favorite denim jacket for LC Lauren Conrad! To add to this I need to talk about one of my favorite shoe companies for a second, Vionic makes some amazing shoes and not only are they cute they are comfortable and what is better than that? Their shoes are invest pieces but they will last you forever, so totally worth it!

Thanksgiving Style & Complimentary Webinar

Happy Wednesday Friends!

Last week I shared the same dress in a beautiful solid cranberry color but this week I wanted to share this dress from Maggy London in this floral print that I think is perfect for fall and Thanksgiving! If you dress up for Thanksgiving this would be great and it’s fun with the tie neck detail and pockets!

Pair this with wedges or flats and you’re set for holiday dinner! I personally love to pair this with a block heel and velvet bag to bring those rich tones and textures to the look.

As we get closer and closer to the holiday season it becomes more and more important to management and plan content to be more effective and show up for your audience. As a lot of you also have a blog or work with social media for a business I wanted to make sure you know that tomorrow I’m hosting a complimentary webinar on how to become a master of content management and planning!
