retail therapy

back in may kaylee and i tagged along with mike down to indy for the night. he was there for a short business meeting. anyway, as kaylee and i were shopping, i saw this in the lucky brand store:

and i loved it but the price tag was way too hefty for me. came back home to find out that the pioneer woman bought it- what a coincidence? and she was giving away a nice little gift card to lucky.com. of course i didn't win it- that would of been too lucky for me. so yesterday during my fit of boredom, i went to lucky.com and found it on sale. yep. score for me. i got this and the koi tank top for half price each. they must of sold out of the koi tank top cuz i couldn't find it to post.

i also went to this blog how about orange. i found it to be very inspirational for decorating the new house. love her colors and how simple everything is. not overstuffed and crowded. {cant remember how i found the blog, one of those hop from one blog to another}

i also love this:

i saw this first on pure and simple. {she has a different style posted on her blog but love them both} you can find this and some other wonderful stuff on etsy at pacoandlupe.

ok going to go and get ready to head over to hobby lobby. came up with another idea for my kitchen swap and need to get a few things for my first name swap too. after that, going to attempt to tackle the garage. going to go through all the old boxes that was stored in the attic and see what needs to go and what can stay. i have tons of southern living at home crap. use to be a consultant but it didn't fly around here like it does in the south. and its not all "southern" things either... oh well thats elkhart for ya.
