Keep Calm

Love this poster!  I think the whole Keep Calm fad has been played out a bit too much, but this one is my kind of poster!


Found via The Bright Bit.

Red-Orange Lips

I was at h&M yesterday and saw a girl in the store with the brightest red-orange lipstick on with her dark hair pulled back in a bun.  She had on such a simple outfit, but the burst of color on her lips made the whole look much more dramatic.  I've been seeing a lot of women wearing this color lately, and I think it's time I give it a try...it could be so fun for the summer!  Definitely going to pick up this Revlon Orange Flip to try out today!

Bridesmaids

A good friend treated me to a movie this weekend and I finally got to see what the fuss was all about with Bridesmaids.  It was hilarious! I officially have a girl-crush on Kristen Wiig now.  She is so hysterical and adorable in this movie.  I'm determined to hunt down this striped shirt she wore on the (super funny!) airplane scene. So cute!

Scrabble Pillows!

How adorable are these pillows from shopdirtsa's Etsy shop?! I just love the idea of putting them on the bed.  Maybe in my initials?  There are so many options!

Jewelry Hanger

I was catching up on the blog decor8 yesterday and came across a post about the home of a Norwegian design blogger, Siw Haveland (blogger of Design Shimmer).  First of all, her home is just incredible.  Her bedroom has to be my favorite room in her house, from the blankets to the closet headboard.  But the most inspirational part of it to me was the way she displayed her jewelry on a hanger...


It is so simple and looks so great!  So I decided to try it myself.  The best part was it only cost me $1 for the ribbon.  (gotta love that half-off Christmas ribbon at Michaels!) I have an accordion closet door, so it can easily be tucked away inside.  I am quite pleased with it :)

New Specs

It's been a loooong time since I've purchased new glasses.  Mostly because they are just so darn expensive! But I have found a savior...Warby Parker Eyeware.  It's an online boutique that sells glasses (frames, lenses and shipping) for a total of $95!! What a steal!  And each time you buy a pair from them, they give a pair to someone in need.  And the selection is pretty stylish!  I've utilized their "at-home try-on" option twice now (they will send you up to 5 pairs for free so that you can try them on!) and finally found a pair for me.  Say hello to the Wiloughby Eyeglasses in striped chestnut. Can't wait to get them!

London and Buses

How adorable is this London Bus Print from Rockett St. George?! It looks so simple and clean and it would look excellent in my living room.  Speaking of buses...I'm about to jump on one to head back to Iowa for the Holiday.  Happy early Thanksgiving!
