Did Not Buyers Remorse

I went shopping last friday with my friend Lisa. She convinced me NOT to buy these fabulous boots I found at target because I wouldn't wear them very often. I may not wear them very often that is correct, but I like to think of shoes like art. They decorate my closet and look so pretty. I could just stare at them all day. I may go back this weekend and grab them so I can stare at them lovingly in my closet forever!

Top Ten Chick Flicks You Must Have In Your Collection



I was going through my collection of DVDs last night, sorting them out thinking I may sell them to the used Book/Dvd store in town. Since I can get anything on Netflix with the touch of a button, why have DVDs taking up space?

This theory worked for most of my DVDs (like Scary Movie 3-- why I owned that I have no clue) but there are some movies I just couldn't bring myself to part with. Here is my top 10 List of Chick Flicks every girl must have in their collection.

10. Love Actually- Love actually IS all around!

9. Mean Girls- Stop trying to make FETCH happen, its not going to happen.


8. Clueless- You're a virgin.... WHO CAN'T DRIVE


7. Crazy, Stupid, Love- Seriously, It's like you're photoshopped


Here is one more fore your viewing pleasure.... you're welcome. 

6. 5 Year Engagement- It isn't out on DVD yet but give me Jason Segel and I'll watch it a trillion times in a row. It comes out September 11th on DVD so please please please go buy it! You will love it!

5. Definitely, Maybe- A love story with any of the Ryan's (Gosling or Reynolds) is sure to make a Top Ten Chick Flick list!


4. Pride and Prejudice- That scene in the rain where Mr. Darcy spits out, "I love you" to Elizabeth super awkward and really fast you almost have to say, "Wait, what did he say?" YAYY!


3. Sweetest Thing- 22..... 28. 22......28. 22......28.
2. Sex and the City- #1.... 2 was crap, but yes, I couldn't part with Sex and the City 2 either. Loyalty ties people! It wasn't logic, it was love!


And the number one chick flick in my opinion and you will find it filed under THE BEST MOVIE EVER MADE....

 1.  The Devil Wears Prada- Where is my coffee? Did she die or something?



Who agrees/disagrees? What would you have picked?

I Can Recreate That.... {maybe}

I am a firm believer that I should be able to recreate any print/design from Pinterest in Photoshop, within reason. Sometimes, I like to recreate it exactly, other times it will take a turn and become something similar yet different! Here are some designs I attempted to recreate from Pinterest and I am pretty proud of!

Nailed it? or not...




I haven't hung the sign yet. But I printed a poster (36x48) of the Prada recreation and to save money (since everyone wanted HUNDREDS to print on a canvas) I just used spray adhesive and matted the sign myself on corrugated plastic! I'll update when I find the perfect spot for my new high fashion DIY!



This would be one of those times I started seeking a recreation, and it turned into that similar but different piece. I decided to customize the image with my own pup (his name is General Neyalnd after the University of Tennessee football stadium, go vols!). I actually love love love this print. I am thinking of pairing it with a metallic gold frame. I'll keep you updated on where the pup print finds his FURever home on my wall!

Coffee Table Styling

Coffee Table Styling




Based on my extensive Pinterest research, and a little help from Design Darling, I have found that a few different items play their role in styling the perfect coffee table. Stack a few high fashion books and top with a funky object like this brass sea urchin, or metal giraffe. Then add some height with tall candles and finally a yellow topiary for a nice pop of color.

Here are my favorite coffee table stylings from Pinterest. Which one would you recreate?

A bit messy may be an understatement but whatevs! Here are some great vanity/vanity organization ideas I have found so far!
