I am in the middle of graduation season. My daughter is graduating in 2 weeks!! It feels like it happened in the blink of an eye!!! I am happy and so sad all at the same time. We also have a bunch of graduation parties within the next month. I have been scouring the web looking for the perfect gift all while trying to contain my emotions!!! Here are some of the things in my own shopping cart!!! Bon Weekend!!
Watches
A watch can be worn with almost any outfit, for any occasion. Men and women wear them when they are working out, going to a nice event, or just doing their everyday routines. Not only does a watch tell you the time, but can also track your fitness stats and heart rate. This accessory is not only stylish, but it is also functional. A watch is something you can have for a long time. When you are choosing a watch, consider how long you will have it and the quality it should be.

Over the weekend I took my older 2 kids to Target to look for some of the Vineyard Vines items. They found a few things (more on that in another post) but I was most impressed with the home decor items and the outdoor decor. I decided to do a round up for you since I was ask about a lot of the items when I did a live post on Instagram over the weekend…Here are some of my favorite things….
I cannot believe that Memorial Day Weekend is here..Time to spruce up your outdoor space to get ready for all that summer entertaining!!! I have been to Home Depot 4 times already looking for plants for my patio pot..I think I am almost there..now onto the rest of the decor. Here are some photos for inspiration. I am def going to add an indoor outdoor rug and umbrella this year. I love all of these pops of color against the neutral sofas.
Graduation Season is upon us. Do you want to know what Oprah is giving as graduation gifts this year? Her book, The Path Made Clear:Discovering Your Life’s Direction and Purpose.
Through a couple of chic bloggers, I was introduced to Fete Home. It is the brain child of the dynamic duo Audrey and Jen who met working at Bunny Williams Home. They both wanted to fill their home with beautiful things but were on a budget. Using their connections in the industry they started designing with themselves as their target audience. Their business is based upon a direct to consumer model (no retailers and no MARK UPS!!!!) with gorgeous pieces ranging from Minimalist to Chinoiserie. Take a LOOK (there is a 20% off site wide SALE going on now). I know you will love what you see!!! Bon Shopping and Bon Weekend!!!
