IKEA Finds

There's nothing like IKEA to get you excited and inspired to decorate! You have to be careful because as you walk through, you suddenly feel like you need EVERYTHING! The BF and I went the other night and picked up a few things for our new place. We have to go back with the truck because some of the stuff wouldn't fit in the car! This rug (the circles are a little more neon than they appear in the pic) now sits in the living room and the lamp hangs over it! The lamp is awesome because its so big and has a fishing rod feel to it. We also got this giant leaf from the kids section that will go over the bed and make it feel like a jungle! We also got some (delicious!) Swedish chocolate that we haven't had since we were in Sweden in 2005 (where we also met and fell in looooove! hehehe). We're going to the bookstore now to find Intersection Magazine- because Joe's car is in it! Have a fab night loves!

Spring Picks of the Day!

Rebecca Minkoff bag with florescent detail: $615, revolveclothing.com

I love this bag because it's simple but has the bright edging that makes it new and totally perfect for this spring!

Boyfriend military jacket: $98, Jcrew.com

This jacket is perfect if you want to start wearing your spring dresses before it gets super warm out. Plus, it will give you that perfect masculine-feminine combo.

MICHAEL by Michael Kors metallic platform sandal: $149.95, nordstrom.com

This sandal will definitely make any outfit HOT, and it actually looks pretty comfortable. It comes in black too, but I love this colour for spring and it goes with everything!

Asymmetrical Mike & Chirs stripped dress: $275, revolveclothing.com

I am so in love with this dress. It looks super comfortable and has sweet button details and pockets. If it goes on sale, I think I just might have to get it!

Tulip skirt: $69, Bananarepublic.com

This skirt is great because it has a cute print, but can easily function as a neutral. The shiny fabric can be dressed up or down, with a nice blouse or a simple tee.

Walk-in Wonderful

Wow, moving is tough, especially when you have to drag everything to the third floor! But, finally it's done! There's still a ton of unpacking and decorating to do (We're hitting up the new IKEA tonight!), but for the most part we're settled in!
The other night, after many trips up and down stairs, I was so excited to organize my awesome new closet, but I guess I was so exhausted that I didn't get very far and ended up falling asleep! The BF took this pic of me and then woke me up and made me get in bed.
I'm still not finished putting everything away, but I just wanted to give you a glance into my FAVE new spot! I think I might even have to do some more shopping to fill up all the space...hmmm...how convenient since I'm super excited to check out all the shopping in Charlotte! If anyone has any suggestions, let me know! Have an awesome day lovers!

Moving Day!

I usually love packing when I'm travelling somewhere, but it turns out moving is quite a bit different. Instead of planning outfits and selecting those few important items, last night involved trying to shove as much as possible into my now exploding suitcases.
I'll be looking forward to the unpacking part- especially since I'm going from a 2x3 closet to a 10.5x6 closet!!! Yup, my first WALK-IN! ahahaha okay, I'm a little excited! I'll post pics of our new place as soon as we settle in! See you on the flip side!
Happy Weekending!

Spring Flowers

Okay, I'm tired of this cold weather! It's time for it to get warm so we can pull out our dresses and sandals that have been hibernating for months now!
I'm moving to Charlotte this weekend which is so EXCITING! We have a pool at our new place that I'm dying to jump into! Everyone wish for some hot sun and maybe it'll be here soon! Happy Thursday!

Zooey for Domino (the finale)

As you probably know, I love Zooey Deschanel! She's in the latest (and, very sadly, last *tear*) issue of Domino. Here are a few pics from her photoshoot... I am really going to miss this mag.
