We pulled up carpet! Let me just say this is not an easy process haha

Here is our time line ;)

Friday: Pulled up Carpet
Saturday: Pulled up Tack strips
Sunday: Pulled up more and staples
Monday: The hubs and mothers sanded
Wednesday: The hubs sanded more and prepped the floors
Thursday: The hubs sealed the floors
Friday: Second coat of sealer

It was a long week!

We are soooo happy with the finished product, can't wait to put furniture in those rooms!

This week we are painting!! Below are the colors we choose for the living room, dinning room (the gray) and two front bedrooms (blue).

Goals

I am taking a mini break from the blog towards the end of this month. And by mini break I mean I probably won't post 5 days a week like usual.

We have to finish our floors in our house and paint by next Saturday when we move. After we move we have to clean the old apartment. All while doing this we will be without internet!! Hence the mini break ;)

I do have some goals in the future for my bloggy that I thought Id share, im not going away anytime soon!!

1. Layout revamp needs to be done asap!
2. Start a series?!
3. Advertise more for blog sponsors. I have had the same ones for a few months now
4. Piggy backing on 3: be better to my sponsors, support them!!
5. More giveaways!
6. New outfits: an arsenal (Ive been planning and planning I just need to take pictures!)

So will you all stay with me through this process? Love you all!!

I Got a House for my Birthday!

Hey lovers!

If you haven't noticed yet with my instagram feed, tweets and lack of posts, Ive been busy!!

House work is no joke! By the time I get home at night I cash out! The other night I went to bed at 10, that is so early for me!!

Well yesterday was my birthday so I have been busy with all sorts of parties on top of house work!

I just wanted to drop in and say hi ;) I also want to share with you some house Ideas we have, because I need color scheme help!!

Have you heard of the website Houzz? Well its like a pinterest for houses and there is an app so I have been using that alot! Below are a few of my "pins"

Our dinning room furniture is very "rustic" so I love this photo because its similar! I want a huge light over the table for sure!

Eclectic Dining Room design by New York Media And Blogs nat the fat rat

Since we have a 4 bedroom house and there is only 2 of us we are going to dedicate a room specifically to an art/music studio for the hubs. And this art and furniture is the definition of H!

Modern Home Office design

My sorta color scheme for the house, thoughts?

Other design by Austin Interior Designer Jennifer Ott

Some day our basement will be cleaned up and I want it to be like this!! Rustic and cozy :)

Eclectic Living Room design by Vancouver Photographer Megan Buchanan

I am thinking gray living room walls and i love this color! and the tv stand is so us!

Eclectic Living Room design

AHHH love! the dark gray and the table and the lamps. This is my dinning room haha!

Eclectic Dining Room design

I really nee HELP with the bedroom colors! Our burnt orange bedding is similar to below, but i just don't know what color the walls should be! Thoughts?

Contemporary Bedroom design by San Francisco Interior Designer Fiorella Design

I took some great outfit photos this week so I can't wait to get back into the groove of things!!

Please advice on colors? We are painting Saturday (fingers crossed).

You guys are the best!

As soon as we move this blog is going back up on my priorities list. I am hopping for an office where I will have the space to work on some great blog posts I have stashed in the back of my head!!

I wanted to give a shout out to my bro today though! He just released his first studio album and I thought Id share it with you all because I am super proud ;)

Online Shopping

Just a quick post about a store I was introduced to!

It is an online store called Van Mildert.

They sell all designer clothing but at a great price!

As I am getting older I am finding that designer brand clothes often last a lot longer and our better for the office.

I bet you didn't know I was a serious name brand junkie?!

I like to mix in name brands, when and if I can afford them, with some thrifted pieces to keep me trendy, on a budget, and looking good!!

Well I bring up this store because I have a birthday coming up and I have been trying to decide what I am going to purchase with my birthday money! And Van Mildert has some great sale items!!

Below are some items on my wish list!

 Marc by Marc Jacobs t shirt (see more white tees)

Angel Eye dress (see more cream dresses)

VILA dress (see more long maxi dresses)

What do you think, are you into designer brands?

Where do you shop for your clothes? Is online the best spot for designer digs?

A New Season the Same Outfit!

Have you ever worn the same outfit twice?

Surprise, I do! Actually most people on do ;)

Sometimes its hard to be super blogger and come up with brand new outfits. And sometimes I really want to wear the same outfit again. Since this is an everyday fashion blog I figured why not show you I wear the same thing more than once hahaha.

Last time I wore this outfit was in April seen (here)

When I like something I rewear it over and over!!

Details:
Shirt: The Limited
Pants: Joes Jeans

The hubs and I close on our house this week!

So that means super budgeting and no new clothes for awhile! I am trying to remix my closet and occasionally wear the same outfit haha!

Have you been in this situation before? Im sure I am not alone ;)
