Wedding Wednesday: Operation SFTD

Operation Sweating for the Dress or "SFTD" has been a bust ya'll. That mission was aborted...some time ago!! And now with 6 months left, I have A LOT of work to do!! My dress arrives at the end of February and I would like to be at least 75% toward my goal. What is my goal you may ask...yikes!! That requires some transparency that I'm not quite ready for!! But I will say this, I don't have to be stick skinny on my wedding day. I just want everything in its proper place, all my love handles under control - nice and toned is ideal. So, beginning November 1st, the mission is a go...again. This will be really tough for me because Thanksgiving, Christmas AND New Year's are right around the corner and I love to eat. But, I am bound and determined to look and feel great about how I look on my wedding day.

Any current or recent brides out there? How did you physically prepare for your big day?

Wedding Wednesday: Perfectly Pink

Vera Wang recently released her Fall 2014 Bridal Collection. Pink is definitely in!! And mind you, I considered a "pink" dress for my Spring 2014 wedding!! My mom and my sisters were against it, so I was swayed. At any rate, pink is definitely the color for the Fall 2014 wedding season! I stumbled across these images from Tom and Lorenzo.

I love the tufted sofas and the fact that the carpet is green and doesn't look terrible!!

While the dining area is stunning, I am most definitely drawn to the walls!

High Tops for Fall

After seeing an Instagram photo of my cousin's high tops, I fell in love with a pair of MK high tops that are on my wish list! I thought I'd share a few others that have caught my eye. Can you guess which ones are my favorite??

#TGIF: Time To Recharge

Life has been pretty crazy for me lately. I turned 28 on October 2nd and have such high hopes for myself-dreams that I want to happen right this minute! On top of all that, I am in graduate school, planning a wedding, and wanting to start my own business. I have created a high stress/high anxiety environment for myself! Thankfully, I'm traveling to LSU this weekend to "TURNUP" with my sisters for LSU's homecoming. Hopefully that will help me unwind!

Cheers to a great weekend!!

Interior Styling

My sister went back to school to get her degree in Biology and has enlisted me to help her style her desk-how fun! I love doing this type of thing! I found these cute pieces on Etsy and I can't wait to get started!!

Fall Pumpkins

I've been seeing so many images of Pumpkins since it's Fall. I recently received a picture of a carved pumpkin that my little sister did-her first one!! And I've been talking to my mom about decorating for Fall-my favorite holiday season is Christmas. So, I decided that I'd get some pumpkins to put around my apartment. Of course, I searched the Internet for some inspiration.
