Fashion Fun

I've been seeing the cutest outfits on Pinterest lately! I am admittedly (and intentionally) late on the Pinterest train. Everyone talked about how amazing it was but then they always added... and addicting. Up to this point I really didn't want to become addicted to something that would be a total distraction. So I waited and waited and now... although I haven't quite figured it all out... I'm in. And I'm hooked. 

I mean, really how could you not be? 

Check out these {cute outfits I've pinned} and of course I related them to some beautiful interiors! 


Sarah Richardson. I mean she is SO good.

Guest Bedroom Rug

Ok guys, I need your opinion. We're finally starting to fix up the office (progress pictures to come) and I ordered an "orange" Fallen rug from - can you guess? - Overstock. It came promptly but wasn't quite the "orange" we were hoping for in our Auburn themed office. It's going to be hub's office, in case you were wondering. But back to the rug... 

We kept it in the office for a day or so trying to make it work, but then we had to face the facts. This rug had WAY more pink in it than we hoped.  Our tipping point was when I brought our guest room pillow in and plopped it down on the rug. 


Yup, it was coral. 

BUT... don't you think that meant it was fate to live in our guest room? I think so too! However, it's a 5x8 rug. If we wanted to put it all the way under the bed we'd need an 8x10. However we messed with it in the room a little and I think it looks good like this.... 


Do you? (ignore the wrinkles and bad photography)


Hubs thought it looked too small at first, and thought it should go under the length of the bed like the rug in our {master bedroom}.


Of course I'd love to have our guests wake up and step foot onto a rug.


However, placing it like it is still gives some relief to potential cold feetsies and lets the pattern steal the show. I love seeing the pop of color and pattern on the floor in there.


So what do you think? 


Does it work in the space?

Guest Posting Today!

I don't know about you guys, but I am SO glad it's Friday! Today I'm guest posting over on my friend Shannon's blog... {Wine Taste Girl}. Her blog is all about having wine taste on a beer budget. So if you love to shop at boutiques and have an eye for designer things check her out! She only features items under $100, and since she lives in Nashville I get the insider scoop on the local stores too - whoop!. 


Light posting week guys, but I have some exciting projects I'm working on and will share soon! 

Have a great weekend!
