Happy Halloween: Power clutch

Boo! Happy Halloween, friends! Hope you are enjoying a day full of tricks and treats! I'm dressed in customary orange and black today and loving the feeling of festivity! Did you dress up for work/school/trick or treating? How did your costume turn out? I promise to share pictures of my attire tomorrow.

Today, I am LOVING my new Essie nail polish in Power Clutch. I’ve been looking all over for a PERFECT gray! To me, this literally looks like drying cement. Sounds unattractive but is a perfect addition to my fall color list. If only mustard didn’t look so heinous on nails, that would be my next purchase! What color are you rocking this week?

Until next time, may your day be full of magnolias, bourbon and lots of tricks and treats!

What I'm Loving Wednesday

Happy hump day, friends! Hope your day is fabulous! Today I'm linking up for What I'm Loving Wednesday! This link up is just too fun to miss. I can think of a million things I love everyday and these posts always makes me prioritize my want/need/dream lists. Without further ado:

THIS! I've been looking for man/woman neutral bedroom ideas and this one is my FAVORITE!
The man-friendly palette still has a soft feel with the accents of clear glass lamps and beautiful floral touches.

LOVE this little glitter pop in a manicure. Such a classy/sassy way to show my playful personality!

I'm loving the way I feel after a morning walk. Nothing beats the way it feels to wake up to the feel of crisp, fall air, stretch your muscles and get your body going. This is definitely a habit I hope to keep!

Ahhh! Him...or her. Either way, this has been my desktop background for months and I just can't get enough. Each time I open my laptop I giggle like a six year old. I need want a Goldendoodle in the worst way. One day, one day!

I'm finally making the big switch! Bye, bye Blackberry. HELLO iPhone! I'll be needing a tutorial! All help welcome!

READ ARTICLE HERE

Lastly, I have this article hanging in my office at work. Every Southern woman should read it. It is beautifully written and an accurate description of what I consider myself strive to be. Garden and Gun always seems to get it right. Ms. Allison Glock, thank you for putting into words the things every belle tries to explain about herself but can't.

Until next time, may your day be full of magnolias, bourbon and lots of things you love!



French Affair...Vin, de sable et de shopping sans fin!

I am ABSOLUTELY loving the new Essie Spring collection: French Affair! The Essie website describes it as wine, sand and endless shopping. What's a girl not to love?!

I'm currently sporting Topless and Barefoot (second from right)- a perfect hue for the work week. I also REALLY love Kisses and Bises. It gives just the right amount of iridescent shimmer. Of course, there is the pretty-much-perfect-pink: French Affair. If you're having a difficult time deciding which color you like best, don't fret! You can pick up a four-pack of mini bottles to help you decide. If still in doubt, have a glass of wine and dream of your toes in the St. Tropez sand-it's sure to bring inspiration!

Until next time, may your days be filled with bourbon, magnolias and a sweet French Affair!
