Kate Spade knows how to do anything and everything in style, so it comes as no surprise that these coasters are anything but amazing and adorable! Best part is that the set is only $20 and shipping is free! So pick these up for your next get-together! I know I will 😉
Just wanted to pop in real quick to let you guys know that the blog might be a little slow for the next couple of weeks, but I have a very valid reason: we officially became homeowners this week! We are beyond thrilled but are going to be really busy as we remodel our new home. We hope to be move-in ready by next month, but that means a lot of hard work leading up to moving day which also means not a lot of time to blog.
I may be completely wrong and be able to update as usual, but I figured I’d just give a little heads up so that if I’m a bit absent here and there you all know it is mostly likely because I’m comparing laminate flooring samples, buying toilets or agonizing over paint chips.
And no worries, even if I am not posting consistently, I will be documenting the whole process to share with all of you along the way!
OK, so I’m not always such a huge fan of Jake Gyllenhaal. I guess I just felt like I would be one of the many, right? Who doesn’t like this guy? But I have to say I was pretty impressed with the pretty when I first saw the trailer for Prince of Persia – maybe my attraction would be more active if Jake just walked around topless all the time. Just sayin’, Jakey Poo. 😉
First off, I’d like to announce the winner of the Where the Wild Things Are giveaway:

So it’s pretty evident that the hubs and I have pretty clear plans of what we have in mind with each room in our new home and our office is no different. This will mainly be the hubs’ haven so he got artistic control, but I absolutely loved his ideas and what he wanted to do with the space. Being a designer, he was looking for a neutral work space to not clutter his environment so that it wouldn’t hamper his creativity. I just ordered this amazing white wash floor from Lumber Liquidators to keep with the clean, sleek look of the room:
It was also a steal at 0.59/sq.ft. – couldn’t beat that deal!
These are also some great inspiration pictures that have tickled our pickles:
I’m going to have to forego posting about my weekend this Monday so that I can pay homage to the Oscars Red Carpet – afterall, I know celebrity gawking and gossip is way more entertaining than my own life, right? Right.
I have to say that I was a bit disappointed with the level of glamor this year at the Oscars. It seemed like everyone was “playing it safe” when it came to their gown choice. Everyone’s outfits kind of resembled dresses I would see being worn at any black tie wedding. I mean, I’m sure they are thousands of dollars more, but you get me?
Although there weren’t many, here are my favorites from the night:
And my not so favorites:
So what did you guys think? Do you agree? Disagree?
Have a fabulous week, everyone!
