Leather Lust

I am one of Summer’s biggest fans. But as much as I love it, I must admit the unseasonably oppressive heat in Arkansas for the last month has me jonesing for cool, crisp fall weather. I’m looking forward to football games, boots and keeping the windows down; I’m looking forward to wearing whatever I want and topping it with a thin, comfortable jacket. Preferably leather. A leather jacket can transform ANY outfit. I’m a dress-girl. I would wear a dress over pants or a skirt any day. They’re just more comfortable! Your cutest summer dress + chic leather jacket = perfection.

Wonderful Wednesday

Love this carefree look. 

Hi! First night in new place! So exciting! I felt like I was playing house because it felt so surreal to have a place all my own.

I live dangerously close to an Italian restaurant (2 doors down). I’m afraid I will be running over there constantly!

Everything is still in disarray but arranging and decorating is the fun part, right?

I’m very much looking forward to having friends over, hosting dinner parties and utilizing my bar cart!

I can’t wait to share photos with you…

You don’t have to live in Texas…

…to look this good.

A little rosy

Red or Rosy is dreamy, when used in pops or as the focal point. Today, I’m wearing red lips with my black & white ensemble, also carrying a bright candy apple purse.
