Florals for Spring



As I am sure this is no surprise to anyone - Florals are big this spring. Not with just a dress or scarf - but bright, bold, and large florals are popping up all over the place - below are some ways to wear! 


My favorite addition to my closet will be the floral jacket - this one (above) is prefect for April showers
 
I love this outfit! I tried to find this jacket online, no luck! Similar versions can be found at sheinside.com or XXI 

Here is a feminine, smaller print that goes oh-so-nicely with this pale teal. 

Loving the edgy touch on the moto-jacket. 



Ok, so if this post is totally reminding you of your Grandmother's couch - I understand...try to have an open mind, after-all, especially in fashion - we know history tends to repeat itself.

The Horror!! 


Now back to prettier things.... 

Floral dresses are always big in spring and summer - I guess the difference this year is the brightness and boldness of the print. 



and if you are still weary of this look - go for a floral scarf - easy. 


...and if you are the more daring type - these babies are ah-mah-zing.














Hope you enjoyed! Let me know your thoughts.

Living Room Makeover!!


So recently I have been itching to do something new to my house, specifically  - the living room. Everything is so dark and warm - I needed a refresher for summer! I was on a tight budget so I wanted to work mostly with what I had.

Here is the BEFORE:


Here is the AFTER:



I had these large striped pillows on the patio - and after a good wash, I decided to remove the back cushion of the couch and add these pillows - not only is it nice to throw a pattern in to mix it up - but it also makes the couch A LOT more comfy! 


I took some mason jars and poured paint into them - then swirling them around created an inside half paintjob - Looking back I may wanted to not go as high as I did, but I still like them. Please excuse my almost dead flowers =(    - Do you like my couch model?


I took my floor lamp - which was black and red (see below) and I spray painted the base with a chrome silver paint - then I just switched the lamp shade to this light blue one I had in the bedroom!


Old Lamp - grainy pic





I took the side tables and spray painted them with the same chrome paint and tacked two flat mirrors to the top. I put a few of my favorite things on top =) 


My table decor.


The only thing I purchased was the yard and a half of fabric I picked up at Jo Ann Fabrics for about twenty bucks. It was a hard decision - there were so many great prints. Luckily, if I get sick of this one - I can go back and get my second choice! 


Hope you like - any suggestions or questions please don't hesitate to contact me! I'd love to hear from you!
