Polka Dot Shirt Dress

THIS dress tho. I can’t get enough of it – I’ve already worn it twice and I’ve only had it for a week and a half! There’s just something about “shirt” dresses that I think is SO flattering on anyone’s legs. Something about the curved hem maybe? I don’t know but I love this one and it was a no-brainer for me :) (such an easy throw on!) Get The…

Organizing My Jewelry

Remember how I promised I would share my organization method with you once I figured out what worked best? Well here you go, friends: a little peak into my jewelry/accessory corner! I know it’s not the neatest looking method, but I like to SEE everything I’ve got all spread out in front of me! Otherwise, I’ll forget about old gems AND I’ll make some excuse to myself why I don’t feel…

Coffee Table // BTD Nola Home

We’ve actually changed things up a bit (actually, A LOT) since I took these pictures, but I figured I’d still post a little peek at our coffee table. All three of us LOVE coffee table books and we have acquired quite the collection. The gilded rosary is by a local Baton Rouge artist and the candle sticks are from Zgallerie for those of you who were wondering! Thank you to…

Bedtime Wardrobe: The Gisele Sleep Shirt by Eberjey

One of my favorite gifts to receive from my parents on Christmas Eve is PJ’s. And for the last few years, all four girls in my family have received matching (monogrammed) sleep shirts, rather than the standard pants and top set. I absolutely love them! If you’re looking for some good gift ideas for this Christmas, I think this is a perfect option for girls of pretty much any age!…

Fancy Skirts & Tee-Shirts

Skirt: bySMITH // Shirt: Gap scoop neck tee // Necklace: Stella + Dot // Shoes: Dee Keller // Bracelets: Stella + Dot // Ring: Kendra Scott pink agate This here is probably one of my favorite looks I’ve worn in a while. Why? Because I LOVE wearing tee-shirts – especially long-sleeved ones that are super comfy. I’m actually not even sure where this particular one is from (to be honest) because…

Copper Cheetah

Good morning! Sorry to disappoint those were expecting to a new brightonsherday post today, but I haven’t had the time to put one together this week. My “excuse” is the fact that my LAST (praise the Lord!) CPA exam is this coming Monday. But I’ll be honest and say that I could have gotten it done, BUT I wasted a lot of time searching the interwebs for the perfect upholstery…

Peter Pan Collar

It literally JUST got (kind of) cool down here in New Orleans this past weekend! But up until this little cold front, I’ve been proudly sporting the remnants of my summer and spring wardrobe. Because it really doesn’t make sense to put those things away until the end of October. But now I’m so excited to be able to wear my boots and warm sweaters! I wore this little ensemble…

It’s THAT Time Again

I bet you have no idea what I’m talking about. Right? Sorry to disappoint, but when I say “it’s that time again,” I am referring to the fact that today is the day of my third CPA exam, which happens to be Audit & Attestation (zZzZZZzzZ!!). I don’t usually procrastinate, but I must say that I most definitely waited until the very last minute to “get serious” with the content…

Let’s Chat

You all know I love writing this blog, right? I love to update it as often as possible (it’s more exciting that way!) and it really is nice to have a creative outlet. I could go on and on about how much I love it, but at the end of the day, aside from helping to promote my mom’s business, I write this blog for you guys. My hopes are…

My Weekend: Rain + Code + Design

= a recipe for excitement and frustration all in one! haha. I have been non-stop coding and trouble-shooting in preparation of launching the deekeller.com website today. at noon. uh oh….it’s almost 1! I ran into a little issue this morning that stopped me in my tracks. Hence the late post. Hence the delay of the launch. whoopsies! But no need to worry; I’m working super hard to get it all sorted…

The Things We Want

Words to live by: Never let the things you want make you forget the things you have. Powerful, right? Sometimes it’s easy to get sucked into the materialistic world that surrounds us, thinking that “more” will make us happier. The truth is that it won’t. And it’s our decision whether or not we want to be enslaved by the things that we want. Choose happiness. Choose gratitude! I know it’s easier…

NOLA move: Under Construction

Remember how I discussed painting my room? Well, I went ahead and did it last weekend. I was going to post about it earlier, but as you probably know, I’ve been galavanting across Texas (and Missouri AND Illinois) doing a little PR for the Dee Keller Design brand. So, my post schedule got a little off track. Here a few “behind the scenes” shots of my room before we started…

Neimans Adventure: Texas Day 1

Whew! What a day! It began with my not-so-pleasant alarm going off around 4:00 AM, followed by a few hours of traveling and a little studying here and there on the way. Fortunately, everything was on time (thank you Southwest!), and I had a great start to my day. The best part about this little trip, besides meeting the sales team, was that I was able to see a few…

DIY: Silver Baskets

I found this Martha Stewart DIY a few months back and decided I had to try it out. I needed a storage option and knew these baskets would be the perfect solution. It’s easy as pie and the results are great. All you need is silver spray paint & baskets! I used these baskets, but any extras you have around the house would look great as well! I just thought…

Easy Fall Layering

SHOP EQUIPMENT BLOUSES + SWEATERS A good-fitting silk blouse and a comfy sweater is one of my go-to looks for cooler temperatures. It’s so simple yet so pulled together at the same time. I love mixing different patterns and colors too – both untucked and tucked. I’ve mentioned Equipment blouses before, commenting on how expensive they are, but I wanted to bring them up again. I know they’re quite the…

NOLA Room: Accents

I finally got me bed down to NOLA a few days ago (woohoo!! no more mattress on the floor!), so things are sort of coming together. Right now, the walls in my room are a light green-ish color, which is actually very pretty; unfortunately, though, it totally clashes with this whole white-vibe/modern-eclectic I’ve got going on. If I were going for a more traditional look, this color would be absolutely perfect. But I’ve…
