Second, I don’t think I articulated one particular point very well. And that is that I really love personal posts. Its how you get to know the blogger. No one ever read my blog until I started to get a bit more personal. What I don’t like is people being on their soapbox. Using their blog as platform to preach. Really irks me.
Basically, most of us are coming from the same place. A blog isn’t that fun unless you know a little bit about the person behind it. But a blog also isn’t the place to force your personal opinions. Agreed. Thanks for sharing all of your thoughts with me, I so appreciate hearing from you all.
And now onto the regularly scheduled posting.
Today we have Jessie from The Long and Short of It sharing her favorites. This series never gets old for me. There are so many talented bloggers out there with gorgeous homes, and I feel very lucky to be able to share some of them to you. Jessie has such beautiful, colorful, southern style. And don’t you love that her yellow lab made it into a picture? He should be friends with Maverick.

Gorgeous! I love those neon prints paired with the bar, so chic!
I loooooove your entry way! And that chandelier! Wow.
completely agree with you about how to divulge personal sentiments on the blog. when things get too preachy its hard for me to keep reading.
on another note, that polka dot decanter is unreal!
I adore that decanter could be something at Kate Spade right now!
I love your bar setup! Those prints are to die for! xx
The decanter looks like the Kate Spade perfume bottle- I love it!
