A Perfect Sunday for...

an Adventure!
A antiquing adventure to be exact. We girls went for brunch and the best antiquing mall I  know in the queen city {the depot}. Also Brunch at Terrace caffe was so good I want to always eat there!
I was on the search for a mirror for my vanity and a candle wall sconce.
I was successful and then some...

If me and Charis ever had our own salon these hair dryers would be a must! HA!
Seriously was a really great day! can't wait to got back.... Christmas shopping for sure there!

Bicycle

 It's summer which means i needed to break out the old bicycle for a bit...

Hope your weekend was as good as mine!

10 Home Looks to Love!

OK.
So i have been going crazy getting inspiration from Pinterest for our new place!
I obviously couldn't jut go out and buy all new things but it has been fun re-working my stuff into looking a bit new & fresh!
Pinterest & decor books have been super helpful for sure!

1. Been slightly obsessed with this look & did something similar over my mantle. Crazy about the trophy cups and pops of pink. LOVE!

2. Love this wall color! with the white it is so pretty & pristine! Usage of antlers will always have my heart!

3. Can't get enough of snappy dreamy clutter! Love the candle sticks especially in this one.

4. TROPHY CUPS! & Flowers! every home needs fresh flowers.

5. Teal, mint, powder blue, always have a place in my heart! love the pops of color using the chairs.

6. PASTELS. I really just love light soft colors like this, especially with white.

7. The chairs in this photo are so great! love the usage of collaging frames.

8. Seriously such a sucker for anything that has an animal on it! Love those birds and deer...

9. White on white with amazing mirrors! love this!!! Perfect mixture. 

10. Ways to decorate shelves. I have been frequenting picture like this for inspiration! Love the white and bits a of brown to break it up! Really so cute! 

Hope your week is going well! so ready for the weekend!

living the good life...

Life has been slightly lazy lately.....
Maybe it's just the calm before the storm {moving}.
There has been pool time & plenty of sweet treats! Ha!
Followed by some lazy lounging around with Therman & some reading {one thousand gifts}.
 So soon to be the complete opposite of this! AHHH....
But yay for new beginnings!
