Friday Faves

Happy almost-weekend!! If you know anything about me, you know I’m a little too obsess with black and white. I wear it 95% of the time. Fellow designers like to call it our “uniform”. Even though lighter pastels are always associated with spring, this color combo works all year long. Keep reading to see my favorites, and to find out how you could win $1,000 in PayPal cash… details below! Enjoy!!

one I have rediscovered my love for Express workwear! My first “dress pants” were from Express, and I bought them when I was traveling to Europe, back in college. To this day, they are still my favorite pair of trousers!! I stepped into their store a couple weeks ago to pick up some new pairs, and their shirts caught my eye. This white and black blouse screams classic to me and will be perfect for the upcoming warmer months. It’s definitely on my shopping list! They are running a great sale right now, so be sure to check it out!

two Black leather will never get booted off my list. There’s something to worn leather that makes me want to cuddle up and read a book.. or two. The clean lines and natural wood make it transitional with any decor style. A single chair would be perfect for a nook!

three While we are talking about great design, I’ve been keeping this rug in my shopping cart for about… two weeks. The value on this rug is out of this world, and the print is so neutral it would go with seriously EVERYTHING! The reviews are through the roof and the size/shape options are fabulous. Definitely check this baby out, I’m totally bringing this one home!

four Slides are on major trend right now, and these leather ones are so unique! They function as both a slide and a flat, which means you’re not stuck with a pair that’s may go out of style. I can’t wait to add these to my collection!

five Pastel nails are majorly popular, but I still love to rock dark nails. This particular color isn’t quite black so it doesn’t look too harsh against the skin. Whether you paint your fingers or toes, a dark nail is always a good idea!!

How does $1,000 sound? I can think of a thousand reasons I’d could use the extra cash! The best part is that it’s so easy to enter. All you have to do is check out this Instagram post for all the details!

Happy Shopping!!

Happy Friday, Lovelies! If you haven’t noticed yet, the ‘spring fever bug’ has bitten me and I’m now obsessed with the slightly warmer temps and anything related to spring. I’m going to enjoy it a little bit longer because I think the weather is predicted to cool off over the weekend. Nevertheless, I can still dream of spring and get in the entertaining spirit. That’s one of my favorites part of the spring months. It seems like everyone comes out of their winter hibernation and just want to celebrate! To enhance your celebrations, Easter tablescape, or girls night, I’m sharing my current entertaining favorites for spring!

[ one ] Large enough to make a statement and hold pretty branches or bouquet of flowers. The ribbed detailing and gold trim set it off from other typical glass vases. The best part is that it’s under $30!!

[ two ] A simple way to add big impact to your curb appeal and first impression of your home. The soft colors and various textures add so much interest to this wreath to make it transition with the spring and summer seasons.

[ three ] I’m not sure if I love anything more than clean white dishes. They are such an easy and sophisticated way to display food. This oblong shaped platter is so unique! The clean lines and crisp color are sure to enhance any party!

[ four ] The hard work is done for you with these woven stripped napkins. All of the colors in this bundle coordinate with each other so you can focus on more important things in life… like inviting friends over for a little party. These would be perfect for outdoor dining!

Wishing you all a happy and relaxing weekend! Check back on Monday for some furniture buying tips–straight from a designer!
