Wear it Wednesday - Cream colored skirt


A sweet friend of mine gave me the most adorable cream-colored twirly skirt. (Similar to this) I have been searching Pinterest for different ways to wear it. Here are some of my favorites.

1.
2.



3.


1. I love everything about this combo. I would never have thought about pairing it with a light denim or chambray but it absolutely works.

2. A dressier option - almost monochrome with a few pops of color. Red isn't a color I would have immediately paired with it but I like it.

3. I love the contrast between the cream and the black. Just a classic look.

Treasury Tuesday - Country Style


I am considering having a container garden. I don't have a ton of room but I think a small one would work well since there is just myself. I see pictures of the fresh veggies that everyone is growing and I want some too! I guess I'll just add that to the mile-long list of "things I want to do this summer."

Maybe these treasuries will help inspire me:

Not just another nail polish


I was reading a post by Kate from The Small Things Blog and she featured this nail polish. "Yeah, yeah," you say, "another nail polish." But wait! This one is unique. This Ruby Wing nail polish changes color when you go outdoors. It is one color inside, and changes to a complementary color outside. I thought this was a fun idea since I tend to get into a nail polish rut. At $10 its a great deal from birchbox.com.
