My home!!!!

This week four friends and I found our house for next year! I am so so excited that we finally got through the stress of finding a house! We found a 2 year old 5 bedroom house with huge double porches that look so perfect and homey. I wish I had a picture to add but I don't yet! I've already started thinking about how I want to decorate my space and I can already tell I've learned a lot from my classes this year. I really want to find a bunch of vintage mirrors of different size and make a "collage" of them on a wall. I've seen that done before in a friend's guest bathroom and it gave a really nice classic vibe. I picture gold, intricate framed mirrors of all different sizes on a small wall maybe over a desk. 

This picture is similar to what I'm picturing, but I don't really like the white frames. I'd rather it all just be gold because I like the vintage, classic feel. 

My future bedroom isn't very big so I'm definitely going to have to find some good storage ideas! I really want to find some antiques or maybe even make some furniture out of scrap wood. I've seen it done on pinterest so if they can do it so can I! 

I'm so excited to after two years of sharing a tiny room to finally have my own space again!! I can't wait to move in in the fall and get to decorating!!

On Pinterest today I stumbled across this Tumblr page called Redefined Style! It is simple but has a great collection of pictures of clothes, shoes, jewelry....anything fashion. I really enjoy the variety of the styles shown on the site. Enjoy!!

FALL

I love fall!!! Not only is the weather a huge relief from the Georgia heat....but with the cooler temps comes fall fashion! I look forward the fall clothing all year long. The chunky scarves, boots, and furs are so beautiful and fun to layer and wear! Pinterest has really fostered my love of fall clothing and I found these great pictures showing some of my favorite looks.




I love layering because of how you can wear a certain dress or shirt with different sweaters or vests and make it look totally different. Here, I like how she mixed the small pattern of the flowy dress with the texture of the short fur vest. Putting a dress with a warm vest is a good transition outfit since it won't make you too hot since the temperature can still feel a little warm. 


The thick, off the shoulder sweater adds a laid back, casual vibe, but the black tights make the outfit look more dressy. I love the chunky knit of the sweater mixed with the slick oversized leather bag. Big handbags are my personal favorite and I love carrying them because you can just throw everything in for the day! I also think her hair is great.
