Hi Everybody,

I could shout from the rooftop – “SO EXCITED FOR THIS 2 DAY WORK WEEK!!!!!”
Yes, I am so ecstatic I could climb up 7 months preggers and all and shout this from our very snowy Minneapolis rooftop :-)

But what I really wanted to tell you is about my fun new guest post on Live The Fancy Life. I feature lots of ADORABLE hats to create that picture perfect moment for your littles. Check it out, here.

Enjoy!

what i wore – fun fall day at the apple orchard

November 21st, 2011 § 3 Comments

If you live in the Twin Cities, the Minnetonka Apple Orchard is a family fall must do! We decided to make it a fall tradition starting this year. We went  a few weeks ago and had a great time! After visiting the petting zoo, going through the corn maze and eating lunch, we were too tired to pick apples, but luckily they have a store where you can buy all kinds of apple goodies.

Miles is wearing a gap hat, gap jean jacket, h&m cardigan, h&m striped long sleeve shirt, h&m courdoroys, jack purcell converse, and crewcuts shoelaces.

{been eyeing these ankle style boots for a while now..creates instant style and so versatile – i would wear over skinny jeans, with rolled up jeans, or over tights and dress. Via Piperlime}

{love how these add a fun pop of color to an outfit without being too bold and the fact that they are cropped length means that they will probably be the perfect length on me only being 5’2. via Piperlime}

inspiration from the runway…..

Not the greatest pic, but I wanted to share this super deal I scored at The Gap last week while running in quickly to pick up a gift for a friend. I picked up these sunglasses for around $20 – a total steal if you ask me. These will be my new everyday sunglasses, which could not have come soon enough. My son recently found  a new toy in my designer sunglasses……those will be put away for now :-)

etsy love – search for the perfect pillow

September 28th, 2011 § 1 Comment

I have been on the search for something very specific….the perfect addition to my leather sectional couch….the exclamation point, if you will – a pillow with 5 special letters – F-A-M-I-L-Y. I envision the pillow right in the middle of the couch. The mental picture gives me that warm fuzzy feeling :-)

My search started on etsy, of course! I entered “family pillow” in the search bar and after browsing page after page, my eye caught a vintage style pillow on seller samantha2818 shop.

Check it out…..

{familia pillow – simple…perfect…powerful…love it}

I also love this pillow:

{because “love is all you need”, right?}
