Friday Favorites!!

Lots of favorites today, y’all!  

And as always, my number one favorite is the fact that today is Friday ๐Ÿ™‚


This is a store I follow on IG, and I took this screenshot to show Dustin that I need that wooden tiered stand…..and then I forgot to show him.  So, hey D, I need that tiered stand….like now.  Love you ๐Ÿ™‚


 It’s really sad that one of the girls that works at BBW knows me by my purse.  And when I went in there 2 weekends ago, she recommended the Chestnut & Clove candle to me after I told her Leaves was a fall favorite of mine.  Y’all, this candle is great.  Go buy it now!



 Yesterday was camo day at school–don’t I look so natural in camo haha!  I had one little girl ask me if I really hunted and another if that was my husband’s shirt.  I must have looked unnatural in camo ๐Ÿ™‚  (I also need a new iPhone cover…mine is summery, and Dustin needs to hang up his shirts that he laid on his chest.  Things I noticed ha!)



I painted the dining room with my mom Tuesday after school!  Goodbye Sea Salt 50% and hello to Crisp Linen!  I’ll have to share after I finish this room–this is my next project!


Grey’s Anatomy started back last night, and the season premiere was okay.  I’m to the point where I’m ready for this show to end, but I can’t stop watching because I’ve been watching since it first aired.  Literally over 10 years ago.  Too long people, too long!  #ilikedtheearlyepisodesbest #bringbackgeorgeandizzy


My friend Kristi comes over tonight for a girls’ night–I CAN’T WAIT!!!!  Long overdue!

Fall Favorites 2016: Fall Decorations!

Happy First Day of Fall!!  

…Officially, right?!  

Because for me and probably for most of y’all, fall started on September 1st ๐Ÿ™‚



Emily and I have been joining up this month to post our favorite things about fall, and today we’re sharing our fall decorations!  Be sure to check out her blog to see how she decorated her apartment–it is so cute!

Fall isn’t a season that I go above and beyond in the decorating (I save that for Christmas ha) and plus, I am still building up my fall decorations.  

Welcome to my minimal fall decor!
Right now the front porch has this door hanger and 2 ceramic jack-o-lanterns (not pictured). It’s too hot to put out mums or anything else that’s fall-like!  Hopefully it’ll cool down into the 80s and I can add more to my front porch.  

I also need porch ideas!  If you have any, send them my way!


I added this cute fall sign from Hobby Lobby and filled the candy dish with candy corn.  If you can’t already tell, it’s pretty empty–I’ve needed a lot of candy corn these past few days ๐Ÿ™‚


I took the green apples and replaced with mini pumpkins and gourds in the glass canister on the sofa table.



I took down the summery items from the mantle and replaced with two fall items–an orange mercury glass pumpkin from Home Goods (last year) and a fall sign from Hobby Lobby (this year).  And of course I added a leaf garland ๐Ÿ™‚



I added a simple bowl filled with fall items (bought in a bag at HL) in between the two candle sticks on the breakfast table.  Last year, Dustin spilled white sauce all over my fall table runner and I never replaced it.  Guess I’ll be buying one soon!



In the kitchen I’ve got my fall candle burning.  This exact one is Chestnut & Clove, and I have the Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin hand soap right next to it.  And then the gorgeous flowers on the bar are a sweet gift from Dustin!  He had those delivered to my work on Friday and now I stare at them all the time–good job, D!

If you happened to write a post about your fall decorations, share your link in the comments so Emily and I can get ideas from your decorating!

Matilda Jane Clothing + a New Sweater!

At the beginning of September, my mom and I hosted the new Matilda Jane collection release trunk show at my house.  I know you’ve probably heard of MJ, and if you have, you probably just think they only have little girl clothing. 

That’s what we used to think, too! 

 It wasn’t until my mom saw a lady wearing an outfit that consisted of all MJ pieces that gave her the idea to have the trunk show.  I gladly volunteered my house for the party since my dining room was completely empty at that time.  We had the best time trying on all of the clothes and debating which ones to buy because we wanted them all!!


 This was the set-up for the party.  The dress form had a dress on it, but someone was trying it on while I took the picture.  One thing I really love about MJ clothing for women is the materials they use to make their clothes.  You can tell these clothes are well-made and they use high-grade material…it’s all so soft!



 Love all of the prints!



I tried on the Cool Mist Tee dress from the last collection.  It was so soft, but I didn’t think it looked great on me.

 I took this picture to send to my friend Hailey because the Splendid dress looks just like something she would wear!  I can see it being worn in the fall with boots and a jean jacket or sweater.



 The Dusk or Dawn tunic is one of the shirts that I ended up buying.  It’s longer but not too long, and it hits me right below my hips.



I also bought the Mossy Vale ruffles.  THESE ARE MY FAVORITE!!  They are so comfortable, and the one day I wore them to school I literally felt like I was wearing pajama bottoms!  I wore them with my Dusk or Dawn tunic.



The Kettle Tee is definitely a great purchase if you aren’t into lots of colorful, printed clothing.  It’s really soft, and who doesn’t love a good swing top?

And as an added bonus…

This isn’t a MJ top, but I bought this cream sweater (similar) this past weekend.  It’s the softest material and feels just like cashmere.  I’m a sucker for any cream colored top.  I bought this thinking, “I can wear this for our Christmas card pictures!!”  Crazy, I know haha!

Happy Wednesday!
