I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day! 

After a pretty rainy week, the sun has come out and although the temperature has dropped a little, spring is definitely in the air. Our magnolia tree is in bloom and everywhere I look there's pretty pink azalias. So this weekend I'm hoping for some park and sun time, but with all the projects I have coming up, I may end up in front of my computer enjoying endless cups of mint tea... and I'm ok with that too because I'm so excited for the event coming up this month. I can't wait to share some with you! In the meantime, I hope you all have a wonderful, sunny weekend! 

If you find yourself indoors: 
1. All the deaths in Quentin Tarantino's movies. 
2. Homemade Cheez-its! 
3. Daily dishonesties we tell ourselves.. and others.
4. Modern day hollywood starlets. 
5. Now that we have an espresso maker, I have to learn how to do this. 

happy valentine's day!

Well, my lovelies, another Valentine's Day is upon us, and while I could care less about gifts or dinners, I still kind of love this day. I like that everyone is feeling the love, and I especially like that there's a lot of pink being worn. 

This morning I woke up to find a lovely floral arrangement with flowers from our backyard, it was the perfect gift. I know what you're thinking, "Why didn't you ask for a Pandora bracelet?" because that's exactly the kind of jewelry every woman should want right? Does that trend confuse anyone else? 

Anyway, I hope your day is filled with love and happiness. 

last minute valentine's day {for her}

So, I know it might be a little late to post gifts, but I'm almost certain some people save Valentine's Day planning to the last minute {not naming anyone}. If you have waited until now to even start thinking about it, I can assure you any of these lovely tokens would make the lovely lady in your life smile. 

1.Bow Earrings; 2. Spade Ring; 3. Essie Nail Polish; 4. Paper Rose {so you can have it forever}; 5. FleaBag wallet; 6. Crossword scarf; 7. Laduree Sweets; 8. Mac Lipstick; 9. Rifle card; 10. Romper 

currently obsessed with....

 

  .....loungewear. Working from home means that I get to take a shower and then put house pants back on, and while this may not be the most fashionable thing, it's certainly the most comfortable. So now I'm kind of obsessed with cute pjs, and any of these would be perfect for lounging.

happy super bowl weekend!

I can't believe it's February, feels like we were just getting ready for Christmas! I'm super excited that it's February though, because this weekend is the Super Bowl! It's no secret that I've become a huge football fan, and while my team may not have even made it to the playoffs this year, and my other team is a joke, this game is extremely exciting because Jacob's team is in it! Being a Baltimore/DC fan has left him skeptical in recent years, but the super bowl run made by the Ravens this year has been inspiring, and has given him hope. I, being the great wife that I am, will be cheering for the Ravens right along with him on Sunday. Nothing against the 49ers, in fact I love San Francisco, and it was so much fun to watch their last game at a bar in SF, but this game belongs to Baltimore, so, fingers crossed. 

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend, with lots and lots of chicken wings and beer! 

Before the big game: 

1. Perhaps one these jobs will be good for me. 

2. Just in case you haven't figured out your plans for sunday, here's a couple of ideas. {1,2}

3. If only. 

4. This made me laugh every time I watched it, and it was a few times. 

5. If you watch Girls, then you've already seen this, but it's amazing anyway. 

new kate spade

Is there anything more girly than a new collection from Kate Spade? Perfect for kicking off February! I'm kind of obsessed with all some of these pieces. The use of bows and thick rimmed glasses may not be that original, but this collection makes them look fresh and new. And, how perfect is that colorblocked dress for Valentine's day? Seriously, I need.
