I {heart} you

Etsy.

The most marvelous idea to ever come out of sheer necessity.

Access to handmade goodies at the touch of a button, without scouring every little boutique/flea market/craft show know to man.

I adore everything about you, Etsy, never change *wink*

And I am madly in love with all the chic little valentines you can procure for your pretty valentine there...I mean just in case the Mister is reading this...

Fabulous Florals

It's getting to be a gorgeous kind of weather in our neck of the woods...and that has me thinking SPRING!

Which has me thinking FLORALS!

It's a sick obsession that started with my mother...but I just love a good floral...and what better way to start out a Monday than with some happy blooms???

Happy Monday, gorgeous!!!

Update:

And then J crew drops this in my inbox...we are as one (c:

Thinkin' and hopin', wishin' and dreamin'

Friday, huh?

That means it's almost the weekend!!! Yay!

And that also means that I am thinking about the next big thing: Valentine's (c:

It just dawned on me this week that now that my little one is in school, I actually have to do *valentines* for his class. So naturally, I headed straight for the internet...

...for research, silly, not for blogging (okay, that's a lie, there was plenty of that as well!).

Here's some stuff I'm thinking about:

Here's to actually accomplishing a project this weekend.

And to pigs flying...'cause those two are connected. (c:

Happy Friday, y'all!!!

House to Home

House to Home.

Have you heard of it??? 

Neither had I...and then my friend Nancy was posting the most AMAZING pics of a home and said that was where they were from.

You *know* I had to check it out! 

And this is what I found:

You know what I think is the best color combo *EVER* right now?

RED and PINK.

Or PINK and RED.

Doesn't matter...equally as fabulous. Oh c'mon, I know I'm not the only one crushing on this combo:

Hey, if it's good enough for SJP, Hermes, and Louboutin...you *KNOW* that it's great (c:

And no, it's not because I've been thinking about Valentine's Day...although that might be part of it...

Weekend shots

Oh Instagram, how I love you! You can go everywhere with me and take *WAY* better pictures than I do!

But then I'm totally going to take credit for them (c:

This is what the weekend looked like:

A trip to the zoo...you have to read the sign...(c:

Some shopping at Loft because they got to 1 million facebook fans...

Still on the fence with that top...

But came home with this one! Um that is my I can't figure out my camera face...oops.

Things that made me happy:
A freakin' pink mixer at Williams...I'm in *LOVE*

Sparkly *neon* top siders...*so* rad.

AAAAAAND...

A new Valentine's mantel at the ATB&B abode, complete with *sparkles* (c:

Oh yeah, we were busy little bees this weekend!

How what your weekend??? Relaxing, partying, nada???

Do tell (c:

Go insane, go insane...

...Throw some glitter, make it rain.

Anybody??? Anybody???

Bueller??? (c:

Thank you KE$HA for the inspiration for my friday post, I'm feeling all glittery and shiny now that the weekend has arrived...

And a big thanks to Lauren for finding this little piece of glamaliciousness:

I never knew there could be such a perfect balance between sequins and leather tassels...it makes me have happy tingles all over...

Here's to a bright and shiny weekend!!!
