1. Planter's select of almonds, cashews, and pecans. The BEST mix of nuts.... (haha mixed nuts... oh Connie).

2. Salvation Army - such a good cause and so many bargains!!!

3. Emily Schuman's outfit- The dress was only $10! I love the texture of the sandals.. the frill on the dress.. the gorgeous bag and the studded details on the belt. Just a great outfit! So jealous...

4. Otis Redding's Try a Little Tenderness - Especially in Pretty in Pink with Duckie (I've always loved this song.. not a current love but a forever one haha)

5. This nerdy necklace on Etsy- it's the caffeine molecule... haha how cute!

A full day of Cupcakes and Cashmere

So after surfing online I came upon the blog Cupcakes and Cashmere by Emily Schuman. This girl has great ideas and taste by mixing bargains from flea markets to high end pieces from the runways. As I'm writing down each genius idea (great ideas to display flowers, where the bargains are, and so many more), I realize that I pretty much spent the entire day indulging myself with all of her posts. After taking the time to accept this fact, I came to the conclusion that I want to live like Emily. She has so many followers who would appreciate her opinion and suggestions that her fan base continue to grow which is why she is so successful now. It's just admirable. Maybe someday, a girl with a lot of time will read all of my posts in one day. I'll set that as my goal now.
