coffee table love

1.) Coffee Table: Restoration Hardware  2.) Tray: Pottery Barn (ON SALE! No link to this item on their site - available in store)  3.) VOGUE book: Pottery Barn  4.) Paris book: Anthropologie  5.) Voluspa Mokara Candle: Anthropologie  6.) Cheetah candle: Pottery Barn

I have been waiting for the perfect time to order a new coffee table!  The kids are finally old enough where I am able to have a coffee table with decor on it and them not rip it down!  What a bonus in having a 3 and 4 1/2 year old... they almost understand what they CAN and CANNOT touch now :)   There are no toys on this table so of course they have no interest in touching anything now!  

I put links above for each item that is included in the pictures with the exception of two.  The book in  between the VOGUE and Paris coffee table books is no where to be found on Anthroplogie's site however, they have so many other options to choose from (after touring their site I realize that maybe I need a few more now)!  Also, the swan candle topper... this was on sale at Anthropologie and I had to grab it.  I love the gold swan and figure I could use the jar for other things once the candle has been burned.

Happy Coffee Table Shopping on this beautiful Sunday! 

makeup monday...

1.) NAKED2 Palette: 'NAKED2' Palette  2.) NAKED Basics: NAKED Basics  3.) NARS Bronzing/Contouring Powder: Nars Laguna Bronzing Powder Palette  4.) Nars blush: Color is Luster  5.) Concealer: MAKE UP FOR EVER Number 5  6.) SHAPE IT: European Wax Center  7.) Maybelline Liquid Eyeliner: Target

Since I have been sick this weekend, it was nice to be able to focus a bit on make up and some of my favorites of the moment!  

1/2.) The NAKED Palettes... I LIVE for them.  They are literally amazing!  The one I use everyday is the NAKED BASICS as it has all light colors.  The NAKED2 Palette has metallic and a bunch of other fun colors you can play with for a night out!

3.) The NARS Bronzing/Contouring Powder is my new go to for each and everyday.  I use it to contour my face and start with the upper most part of my forehead, cheekbones, and sides of nose.  Then I blend with my powder to finish off.

4.) NARS Blush: Loving the Luster color.  I also like the color Orgasm (one of the most popular).

5.) MAKE UP FOR EVER Concealer: After two kids and no sleep... finding the perfect concealer was definitely a PRIORITY on my list.  This one is the best!

6.) SHAPE IT: This is an eyebrow, conditioning serum and has worked wonders for my eyebrows.  Not only does it help them stay in place, it also helps your hair start growing in the same direction!  What a savior this has been...

7.) Maybelline Liquid Eyeliner:  Best $5.00 ever spent!  Go buy it, try it and let me know what you think...

Hope you will check out some of these make up items, if not all of them!  I promise you will not be disappointed :).  Let me know what your favorites are, feel free to comment below!  

saturday blooms

1.) Table: Restoration Hardware  2.) Chairs: Restoration Hardware  3.) Table Runner: Williams-Sonoma  4.) Place Mats: Williams-Sonoma

This whole house remodel has really taken a toll on me!  There is always a new project being started so there is NEVER a clean room or finished area!  Our dining room is a work in progress... however, it is always fun to dress it up with a table runner, place mats, and fresh flowers.

With two kids, there are only so many options for table runners and place mats that will work.  These are from Williams-Sonoma and I love them so much!  You just wash the place mats off if anything gets spilled on them and the table runner is washable as well.

The table and chairs are from Restoration Hardware.  I have been waiting to make this purchase!  Next in line are the two end chairs, table cushions (which both need to be custom ordered), and the chandelier.  Artwork/mirrors will need to follow as I have other rooms to focus on as well :)

While I am cleaning and organizing, I hope you all have an amazing weekend!

happy new years eve!

1.) Stuart Weitzman Heels: Stuart Weitzman  2.) Rolex: Heller Jewelers (the option with the black dial is not available on the site) 

I cannot believe it is the end of 2014!  What a long, crazy, but blessed year it has been! 

Hope you are all enjoying a fun, safe night out!  The two accessories that are a must have for me this New Years Eve are a watch (need to keep an eye on it ;-) ) and a pair of fabulous heels.   I have been eyeing these bad boys for a while and finally decided to make the purchase after Christmas!  These heels are so comfortable!

Unexpectedly, I received a Rolex for Christmas from my husband.  A watch is something every girl should have, it makes a great accessory to any outfit!  Here are some other suggestions for watches:

burgundy is everything

1.) Dress: Leith 2.) Hat: Topshop  3.) Booties: Nordstrom  4.)  Handbag: YSL (similar here: Nordstrom )  5.) Lipstick: NARS

I guess you could say I am a little obsessed with Burgundy... :)  Burgundy bag, lips, and booties!

We had to take some photos in this outfit as it is the one my 4 year old son loves!  When I asked him what I should wear the other day, he told me to wear this one!  He thinks I look "so pretty" in it so it must not be too bad of a choice... 

The dress is super comfortable and it is double lined so you don't need to worry about anything showing through!  It is the perfect length and goes great with the Sam Edelman booties which show well below the slit in the dress (click on the link about, the booties are on sale).  The Topshop hat fits just right and helps make this outfit a little more casual for a lunch date!

Hope you're enjoying this short week!

day after Christmas

1.) Sweater: Trouvé Fluffy Dolman Sweater  2.) Jeans: rag & bone (similar here: High Rise Skinny Stretch Jeans )  3.) Boots: Uggs

The day after Christmas... is more like a day of cleaning for me!  Even though I tried to tone it down this year, our lucky kids were spoiled by family!  Toys, clothes, puzzles, and games were everywhere as I cleaned this morning.  A cozy outfit and a triple shot of espresso is just what I needed to get me through today.

Heading over to Heller Jewelers shortly to see what I would like to do with my Christmas present... I will keep you all updated :) 

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and enjoy your day whether you choose to relax or go out for some more shopping!

sparkle is everything

1.) Shirt: Topshop (similar here: Nordstrom )  2.) Pants: Lucy Paris (now on sale! Nordstrom  3.) Shoes: Sam Edelman (now on sale! Nordstrom  4.) Necklace: Marrin Costello (email: shopvici@gmail.com)  5.) Handbag: YSL (similar here: Nordstrom )

Wow, what a busy holiday season it has been.  Here is a cute outfit that can transition easily from day to night!  The sparkle pants are my favorite and so comfortable!  (Sparkle is everything... and definitely a MUST during the holidays <3 )  I have had these hanging up in my closet for a while and they are now on sale along with the shoes.

The handbag I was unable to find in the specific color I have online, the link will take you to the same size bag.  It is beautiful!!!  When I went to Nordstrom they only received two of this color and weren't receiving any more.

Hope you all are finished with your shopping... 2 more days till Christmas!!!  

(P.S.- Thank you to my good friend Kristy and her husband Brett for finding the time to snap these pics!!!)
