Pink Lemonade

It's Monday again! I challenge everyone to take some time for yourself this work week and enjoy a margarita while relaxing! If you're in the mood, try this recipe I found for Pink Lemonade Margaritas from Girls Guide To... They look amazing!


Enjoy!

Moodboard Monday

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend, I loved being able to lay around and relax a bit {I also enjoyed the pool and caught some sun with some friends} I was so excited to be in Charlotte this weekend especially to see the fireworks this year! With the new Knights stadium opening up earlier this summer I knew the fireworks were going to be amazing!! I'm a sucker for some fireworks too.

I'm sure since everyone's weekend was full of color between hanging out with friends and family, & catching some rays and seeing the fireworks... Who's ready for a calm week {even though we've got to go back to work} Let's calm things down from the wild weekend with my favorite neutral color..

'Merica

Happy 4th of July!! I had a little fun with today's post if you can't tell with a quick glance.. Taking all of my favorite red white and blue posts and putting them into an american flag collage! What else would be patriotic than that? Enjoy!!

Creating a Vanity | One Kings Lane


I'm so happy to be working with One Kings Lane today bringing you my vanity essentials! One Kings Lane is hosting a blog campaign called "Reflect Your Style" where a variety of bloggers are given a selection of mirrors to choose from and design their dream vanity surrounding it! Sounds fun right? Well, this campaign hit home for me particularly because as most of you know I recently moved into a house.  Yes, not an apartment in the city like most post grads, an adorable little duplex in Charlotte within walking distance to the city and everything! The only thing about a house is not having the luxury of oversized walk in closets and each roommate having their own bathroom. So while there has been some compromises, I love my little house with a close up view of the Queen City Skyline.

I've been torturing myself with actually getting down to it and putting together my vanity in my bedroom {a compromise of sharing a bathroom} I have a writing desk and a vintage looking table lamp.. but how do I complete the look I want is the question I ask myself daily when I sit there to put on my makeup each morning. One Kings Lane's Reflect Your Style campaign was the perfect opportunity!! And not to mention how much I love One Kings Lane..
Here's my dream vanity inspired by their Line Mirror:



I love mixing vintage looking items with boho chic accessories and decor. And just can't get enough of these colors! This vanity would be my little oasis! Can we talk about this amazing ginger jar? If you ever find yourself stumped on how to incorporate a mirror into decorating a space, One Kings Lane has put together 7 great ways to help you out!!
