A little while back I received one of these adorable little faux-ostrich cosmetic bags from Stella Grey, and I love it.

The prices are great, I love the size and love that its a local Chicago business even more!

This little tweedy shoes have me very excited for fall fashion.

Love this little gold succulent in a faceted little jar that I saw on Simply Smitten this week. Such a perfect desk accessory.

How freaking cute are these pajamas? I love that they are a teensy version of traditional men’s PJs.

I just bought The Sprouted Kitchen and I want to make every.single.thing in it. I might even say it rivals Barefoot Contessa. Yes.

I wrote a post on Friday, hit publish and never realized it didn’t go live… oops! So sorry about that.

The most beautiful picture taken by my sister of a perfect nook at my dad’s house…. a sunset at Ravinia (an outdoor concert venue), and yes now I can check that off my summer bucket list… toured a beautiful new condo building in my area for fun… and found this gorgeous fixture for a client’s dining room

Celebrated one of my very oldest friend’s wedding with a beautiful cake, amazing music (you can see my moves in the blurry picture), my sisters being in town and the most spectacular pink flowers.

Yesterday was a very productive rainy day inside (checked off a ton of things from my wedding to do list). As much as I love the gorgeous weather we’ve had this summer, its nice to have a day to be lazy and not feel badly about it.

Hope you had a great weekend too! xo
