Friday Favorites

Elephant print// Bucket bag// Lilly Pulitzer case (no longer available)// Coral necklace // Tribal maxi // Mint Apple Candy polish.


These are some of my favorite things I've either purchased or are on my list to purchase very very soon. I'm dying to find a space in our apartment for that darling elephant print! That bucket bag from Old Navy is a steal at $32 and perfect for summer when you don't want to carry around a huge tote. The Lily Pulitzer case I bought last summer and the only time it came off my phone was to use my gold sparkly case for the holidays. It's not a hard case but not a silicone case either, it's nice and small so it doesn't add bulk to my phone. I love it. The coral necklace I bought about a month and a half ago from Target (it's currently on sale for $11.95!). I'm obsessed with it, it's the perfect summer necklace! The tribal maxi skirt I got from the Loft a couple weekends ago and I've worn it every weekend since. it's nice a light weight and the slits up either side make it easy to walk in. Loft has everything 50% off until the end of the day too! The mint apple candy polish I got a couple weekends ago as well and it's been on my nails since. it's the perfect shade of blue/green without being too saturated with color.

I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend! We're gearing up for the 4th over here, and super excited to spend some quality time with family and friends next weekend!

Current Obsession: Lucite

Lucite furniture is everywhere and clearly I'm obsessed, pun totally intended. Since we're still trying to furnish our own apartment I've been looking to lucite more and more. Living in a small space it is perfect because it serves a purpose without with visual mass. Here are some of my favs.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I'm thinking about doing a Lucite coffee table for our living room, and I'm obsessed with the trunk.
 
 
 
I absolutely LOVE the idea of using logs in it, and adding famine touches with flowers.

Current Obsession: Marquee Letters

Hello all! Here we are at the start of another week. Our weekend was crazy with a capital C! We drove 8 hours in one day, 4 to a wedding and 4 to Danny's sisters to celebrate fathers day with his family. It was exhausting but we were very happy we got some time with his nephew. I need another weekend just to recover!

Lately I've been looking at the walls of our apartment, which are all completely bare, and wondering what I'm going to do with them to warm our place up. I have found so many cool things to do with marquee letters. Here are some of my favs.


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I may be slightly obsessed with the Christmas one, I love the idea of bringing them in for the holidays!
 
 
I want to do something like this above our bar cart. We don't have enough room for 'Happy Hour' but we do for 'Bar'!

It seems like palm leaves are everywhere right now, from pillows to fashion. I've rounded up a few of my favorites, as well as some of my favorite ways to use it in your home. Whether it's bringing some fresh palms into your home for summer or going bold with palm prints, palm leaves have a refreshing feeling to keep around all year long.

Current Obsession: Pop of Color

There is nothing better than a pop of color done well, especially a pop of neon. I'm a huge fan on a neutral cozy living space, but when the weather warms up I want something energetic and fun! The easiest way to accomplish that is with pillows, but if you want to be a little more bold you can try some of these.
