So obsessed with these chair cushions on the folding bamboo chairs we currently use in our dining room! They make them feel less temporary and more complete and would be adorable accents for future tablescapes with multiple pattern and color offerings!

I’ve always preferred painting my nails myself but I want them to hold up! I’m not sure what took me so long to finally try @dazzledry but I’m completely hooked on their 4-step nail system. I got their carnival collection mini flight and love the shade Sugar Dipped for summer! #ad

Rainy day, Mother’s Day, or any day! Linking my favorite scents of Votivo’s candles that I have burning on repeat. Red Currant is my all time favorite, but you can’t go wrong with any of their scents! #ad

I may not have any warm weather trips on the horizon just yet, but that hasn’t stopped me from shopping and sharing items I’d pack! The Spring line from @BEYONDbyVera checks boxes for just about any event or occasion. I’ve linked these pieces and other favorites from the collection here for you! #ad

Ever since deciding to use these Amazon Faux Bamboo Folding Chairs as our dining chairs in our current house I've been wanting to find cushions to add warmth to the space, comfort when sitting, and a look that feels a little bit more intentional. I always suspected I'd have to get some custom made, so I was thrilled when I discovered that these Target x Studio McGee cushions were the PERFECT size! The 15.25" x 17" cushions look like they were made for these chairs and since they were made to go on an outdoor chair are weather resistant and wipeable making them a safe bet in our dining room. The blue color was just icing on the cake with the decor we already have in the space! I'll link both items in my stories in case you have the chairs and are on the hunt for a similar solution or want to recreate the look in your home.

If you’re like me then you probably have some wrapping paper that feels too cute to just use for present wrapping! That’s how I felt about some of the prints I have from @evelynhenson’s collection and after seeing some creative 3D paper stars I decided to try to make my own. If you can cut and fold and pick out wrapping paper you love then you can make these!

I’ve shared everything I used to make them including the star template in case you want to decorate with them too. I have plans to make more to match our decor and even want to figure out a way to make a larger version to use as a tree topper!

Gearing up for the Super Bowl of table setting, Thanksgiving! Although we won’t be hosting this year I can’t help but enjoy pulling out some of my hosting bests to put together a turkey worthy tablescape using some seasonal favorites. My @thehorsehoecrab monogrammed Essential Dinner Napkins are the star of the show and inspired my color scheme for this table! I opted for the Kiawah font with my initials and their team could not have been better to work with sharing a few different thread color options and how the colors would look together. If you’re hosting this holiday season consider some sort of entertaining upgrade! I’ve linked these napkins and other favorites for the upcoming holiday from #thehorseshoecrab on my @shop.ltk. #ad #savannahga

Happy @amazonprime day to those who are celebrating! While I know most people are looking for specific deals, I’m using it as an excuse to share some of my favorite Amazon finds that we have in our home. I can’t guarantee they will all be on sale, but even at regular price they’ve become the perfect accents in our space and are worth sharing!

It still feels a little early to fully switch my closet over to fall clothes, but that hasn’t stopped me from adding in some dresses for the season! I fell in love with @BEYONDbyVera’s pieces in the spring and can’t get enough of their new prints and silhouettes for fall. From everyday pieces to the perfect looks for holiday cards and gatherings I’m already envisioning where all I’ll be wearing them in the months to come!

Everly in Blue Arabesque, sized up to a medium but would’ve been fine in a small
Antonia in Terra Meknes, sized up in a medium and am glad to have a bit of extra room by my bottom for the dress to flow appropriately
Sissi in Sage Arabesque, sized up to a medium but would’ve been fine in a small

Finally treating myself to a @lulakate dress for fall black tie events after falling in love with the style I chose for my bridesmaids to wear in my wedding (Grace bodice with Trumpet skirt in Classic Faille). I had so much fun trying on so many of their different silhouette combinations and can’t wait to have one of my own hanging in my closet after making my bridesmaids promise to let me borrow theirs! #ad

Lula Kate is Charleston based and offers the prettiest bespoke dresses for bridesmaids and special events that are made in the USA.

The dresses I tried on in my reel were:
Harper bodice with Trumpet skirt in Lily of the Valley in Black
Grace bodice with Gathered skirt in Bengaline in Denim
my bridesmaids are shown wearing the Grace Bodie with Trumpet skirt in Classic Faille
Henley bodice with Brunch skirt in Faille in Black
Emily bodice with Brunch Skirt in Garden Flora in Mist

If I worked in a corporate setting these Amazon dresses would be on repeat in every color, and even without working in an office I’ll be reaching for them any chance I get! At under $50 each pair them with these cute flats (also from Amazon) in your favorite color for the easiest look that is affordable and will leave you feeling put together!I’m wearing a medium in both dresses but probably could’ve stuck to a small in the midi version (although size up if you are larger in the chest or shoulders). Sized up half a size in the flats! #amazonfinds #amazonfind #affordableworkwear #workwear #workwearstyle #officeoutfit #amazon #amazonfavorites #tweeddress #corporatestyle #babyshowerdress #workdress #officestyle #dupe #lookforless #classicstyle #classicdresses
