Work vs. Play

I am now obsessed with Polyvore. It has the BEST fashion inspirations around!
I am LOVING the new shorts trend. Here are a couple different ways you can wear them. To dress them down a tad pair with a graphic tee. Perfect for happy hour, shopping, running errands, lunch w/ friends etc... etc... To dress them up pair with a cuffed shirt, perfect for work!! I always flock to shorts when I know I have a busy day ahead of me. Very versatile, freeing and perfect for any occasion. I hope everyone has a fabulous, productive week!

I Heart Halston

I find myself daydreaming at work of all the Halston Heritage designs I can't wait to get my hands on. There is just something so glamorous about his clothes, shoes, accessories, EVERYTHING! He will always be respected and never forgotten in the fashion industry!! Here is a look I can't wait to wear on my next Girls Nite Out :)

Fab Storage Finds

Living in a townhouse has its perks, enough storage is NOT one of them! That is why I am constantly trying to find ways to store the things I LOVE but without taking up much space. Most of the time I try to sneakily hide them so my place is left looking chic and clean! Here are some suggestions Better Homes and Gardens have on how those flea market finds or vintage storage compartments can house what you need and what you can't imagine giving up!
vintage wooden jewelry box
I have one of these on my nightstand next to my bed! I usually put hair clips, vitamins, Advil (after those girls nites out!) and other things that I might need once I have gotten into bed.
Bird cage mail storage
I LOVE this idea! Mail is always collecting on my bar, on the top of my refrig, everywhere!! I would use this birdcage to divide between read mail, bills, mail for my boyfriend, etc. In fact, I have a bigger vintage birdcage holding my blankets in my living room now,  I'm definitely going to transform it and use for my mail.
Shutter for Sorting
Another great way to organize mail (Can you tell it is a growing problem in my place?) is to use an old window shutter. I love how they placed fabric over a cork board and attached it to the shutter!
 
Windowpane cupboard
This is PERFECT for all the those little picture frames, vases, or other tiny must haves that you just can't seem to find a spot for!
Bathroom Salt and pepper shaker storage
I think this is my favorite!! You can find old salt and pepper shakers everywhere, here Better Homes and Gardens suggests storing bath salts or maybe even a small tealight candle and situating them near the bathtub.
Trophy storage
This one could go hand-in-hand with the above. Use small trophies to house cotton balls, Q-tips, razors, etc.
 
I don't know about you but all this makes me want to visit the flea market this weekend! What are some savvy ways you store the things you need and love?

Fashion Faves!

My day is just not complete without my PopSugar Daily Digest! This is one of my outlets where I catch up on my Celeb Gossip! It is typically the first thing I read when I get home from work. Today I am LOVING...  
Blake Lively Pictures Shooting Savages
Blake Lively filming Savages! Check out her fabulous arm accessories HERE!
Kristin Cavallari Walking Her Dog Without Ring Pictures

Katy Perry, Sofia Vergara, and Jayma Mays at The Smurfs Premiere
There was a poll going on yesterday whether this was a hit or miss? I think HIT!! What do you think? I LOVE the bling! AND her hair color :) Check out Katy Perry's smurf nails HERE!

Well I can smell dinner almost ready! Tonight is date night for PB and me. Even though we live together we try to devote at least one night a week to each other (date night)! Typically it is Saturday, but I thought it would be a fun change up to do it on a Tuesday! :) He is making panko encrusted shrimp and homemade french fries (healthy! lol). I hope everyone has a wonderful night!! xo
