What I've Been Up To

Good day everyone! How was Thanksgiving for y'all? I had a wonderful time visiting with my fam, cooking, and relaxing. I am truly thankful for all I have been blessed with, especially my readers!

The weather has been in the 70's and I've been cooking alot of yummy dishes with friends as of late. I must say, life is treating me well. Of course, I have daily struggles but overall I am extremely grateful. Here are some photos of what I have been up to lately.

Get out there and rock your week! xo

This is a pillow I found at Target. I have an obsession with all things Westie or Scottie dog because my first dog, Molly, was a Westie. May she rest in peace.

Printed Pants

Who else is excited about Thanksgiving? I love to eat and I love to cook so it is a holiday made for me. This year we are going to the Cowboys game with my dad, as is our new family tradition, and cooking with my mother.
 
Of course, my favorite item is the pants. Skinny jean AND leopard print? Yes, please! I found these at Zara in Soho. To get my color fix, I put the pink top in. Loving the printed pant trend.
 
Have a great day dearies! xo

Cheers to the Weekend!

I am learning it is essential in life to capture the moments because they are gone in an instant. Those are my words of advice. I just spent the night with a dear friend discussing life over wine and music. I love those conversations with close friends where you can just be real and be yourself. Look for a blog coming soon featuring Firmoo.com!!

The blazer is another gem scored in NYC and is from MNG. I decided to pair it with a pop of color to add some fun to the outfit but kept the jeans to make it laid back. The shoes are a fun pair I scored in Barcelona at a store near Las Ramblas.

Wishing everyone a lovely evening! xo

San Antonio Shenanigans

This weekend, my dear Rebecca and I went down to San Antonio to visit Kristen, who has just moved there. Upon Rebecca and my return to Dallas, we got a little low on gas. We started out with half a tank which we assumed would get us to Austin. It did, however we got on this tollway with NO civilization on it. As my gas meter sank down to E, Rebecca and I both kept our cool as to not freak out the other passenger. But I know I was freaking out a bit inside. With the help of the trusty iPhone, we found a gas station in Pfulgerville (yes that is a city in Texas).
 
This sweater was one of my gems found in NYC from a small Soho boutique which I cannot recall the name of. Usually, I associate owls with my sister but hey, I can own owl stuff too! Shout out to my lovely mother for her help with the pictures in the lovely parks of Highland Park.
 
Make sure to vote! xo
