An Inspiring Visit to Cincinnati's Homearama

I attended Homearama for the first time this past weekend! I'm really surprised it has taken me this long to make my way to this annual event. Without a doubt, I would live in this Carriage Hill community, especially since it provides a horse farm atmosphere. Here's a recap for those of you who couldn't make it this weekend or those looking for inspiration. Enjoy!

Stacy Brown Designs

I received the most adorable birthday gift from my aunt last week. This wooden hand painted monogrammed bangle bracelet from Stacy Brown Designs is to die for!

Monogram Favorites for the Home

My home wouldn't be "me" without a monogram here and there. I would say every room has at least one initial item adorning the wall or topping the table. Placing a "personal stamp" on things make them feel more special and more yours.

Retirement party decor and menu planning details to come soon!

After serious thought, I decided on a hobby-themed basket. My mom has been telling people that she can't wait do some "flea marketing" and turn trash into treasure. I know she is also looking forward to cleaning out her own home and hosting a couple sales of her own. With that in mind, here's the helpful basket I put together...

Patriotic Sparkle: Outfit Inspiration for the Fourth of July

The husband and I will be heading to his hometown for a Fourth of July parade tomorrow. Because we'll be standing outside for long while in the July heat, I want to make sure I'm comfortable, but cute.  When attending outdoor events like this, I consider three things:










With that in mind, here's what I suggest if you're aiming to stand out in the crowd while having a little patriotic sparkle...
