Download the desktop-sized version here Download the desktop-sized version here Download desktop-sized background here! I’m always changing up my desktop backgrounds….I’m not sure why but it just makes me happy! And with all the red and pink and valentines-inspired goodness in the air this month, I thought it’d be fun to make a little February-inspired desktop background for you all! Let me know what you think and enjoy! xo, B
Well…if I’m completely honest with you, my heart skips a beat pretty often. I tend to get overly excited and/or obsessed with pretty things quit easily and way too fast. Especially in the shoe department. But my most recent heart-skipped-a-beat-moment was when I came across the Kate Spade Licorice pump. I’m a long time lover of the classic Manolo pump and these Kate Spade babies are the perfect alternative to the…
How awesome is tihs diamond print pattern by Amy Borell? So cute! and I just discovered this SUPER talented lady behind the fabulous blog, Hunted Interior, (where have I been?!!) who made these drapes HERSELF! I’m serious – find out how on her blog here! spotted drapery – brilliant! and I loved getting to see Kelly Moore’s Home Apt tour via the always lovely Coco + Kelly blog! I’ve seen several pictures of DVF’s NYC amaze…
Action is the Foundation of All Success – what a great quote! So simple, yet SO true. Given the new year, I’ve been thinking a lot about goals in general and what it means to actually pursue them. And although having a plan and being organized is important, I think there should be just as much emphasis placed on simply getting started. Because I don’t know about you but I have…

Because sometimes all I really want to do is….nothing. And mindlessly look at pretty pictures. Why? I’m not sure, but I thoroughly enjoy it. I’m ready to be hone for the holidays. But am I finished with my Christmas shopping? Oh gosh, not even close. I can’t even. I’ll figure that out tomorrow…since when am I such a procrastinator?! Brooke Nipar // The Decorista //.

1. Came across this print (love it!) – Oh Come Let Us Adore Him Print via Suzie Stationary 2. Love this awesome idea of making your own Christmas Light Up Marquee via A Beautiful Mess Blog! It looks like a little bit of work, but she explains the process really well! (If you’re interested, here’s what you’ll need: a large wood board (50 x 24 inches), 4 wood planks (2 x 1…
Please excuse me while I continue to work my little tooshie off all day and (most of the) night until the end of time this audit….which will hopefully (better be) be next Wednesday (fingers crossed!). Besides the fact that my life is a total MESS right now and that I’m not really able to do much of anything outside of work, I have to admit that I actually don’t hate…
I am almost never sure about what I want but I am always sure about what I don’t want. The million dollar question of becoming an adult – what do you want? Because life is what you make it and you can have anything you want if you work hard enough – right? And the only thing YOU have to figure out (before you can advance from step A to…
The new BaubleBar Bartender Collection with Blair of Atlantic Pacific – Oh. Em. Gee. It’s unbelievably good. I may or may not have just placed 3 items from the collection in my shopping cart….along with some other glittery goodies. I’ll let you guess how that little story ended… Coveting this amazingly glam and girly pillow combo situation via The Life Styled. Need that gold pillow…yesterday. EVERYTHING about this photo via Miss Erika of…
Cherche et tu trouveras. Search and you will find. Simple, but so very true. PS: Random fact: I took 6 (or maybe 7?) years of French before college. I love the language. :) image credits: 1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5
I’ve been meaning to posts these photos for months now. They’re from one morning when I decided to move my quiet time outside to enjoy the weather at my old place in NOLA. I hope you’re all having a wonderful and hopefully relaxing weekend.
Cynthia Rowley Iridescent Scuba Dress Can we talk about how amazing this dress is? I don’t even have the words! I’m obsessed. And how perfect would this be for a holiday party or for those of us (11/29!) that have birthdays coming up?! I think I’d plan a fun dinner with girlfriends JUST so I could wear this dress…

It’s the last from my coffee table styling series and it’s from my place in New Orleans (I’m…
“People will forget what you say, forget what you do, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” This is one of the quotes my mom has always preached. In her eyes, being nice to everyone, no matter what, was maybe even more important than making good grades or Varsity Cheerleading. She was always more concerned about the way we treated others, especially those that weren’t in our close friend…
NEVER forget how good it feels to hear something positive about yourself. Share the Love! You know that feeling you get when someone comments on how great you look? Or when you see the facebook/instagram “likes” piling up on your notification screen/feed? Yeah…you know you do. We can all relate on this one. Think about how good that simple bit of positive affirmation feels. You don’t hate it…right? Thought so.…
Like I’ve mentioned before, you win or lose by the things you choose. And each morning, you have the opportunity to decide and ultimately determine whether or not you’re going to tackle the day or let it tackle you. Seriously, even those days where everything imaginable goes wrong, you can still control the way you react and adjust your perspective on the situation. Right? So do yourself a favor and choose happiness! Here are a…
I know...much easier said than done. But I got to thinking and I'm curious, why do we do this? Why do we (willingly!) dig ourselves deeper and deeper into a dark black hole that only leads to lust for more more more! I need this. I want that. I want to be like her. She's got it all together- sigh.
