Ikat + Yellow

I wore this bright, fun outfit last Friday when I was out and about running errands around town.  Friday has turned into my "get everything done" day, due to the fact that I have class Monday-Thursday with a lovely 3 1/2 hour drive round trip. 

Only 2 months of class left for me then I will be interning full time (hopefully somewhere closer to home).  I am starting to get nervous!

Home Style

After recently moving into a new condo, I have been inspired by interior design and home decor.

When you move to a house you really start to develop a certain style that you call your own.  I have always been a fan of southwestern home decor and bright colors so when we found this bright and colorful condo... I was all for moving in!  It has been fun checking out photos online and watching HGTV to find new ways to add to our condo and make it "ours".

A few pictures that have inspired me.....

 I found this southwestern interior with an adobe fireplace.  I love the earthy neutrals in this room. Photo taken from http://www.interiordesignpro.org/blog/southwest-interior-design

I love this room!  The mint green wall paper with the gray furnishings make it a really comfortable and fun space.  I especially enjoy the patterned rug.  Photo taken from http://comfree.com/Alberta

Although this bedroom is not in any way southwestern...I love the mix of woods and the amazing chandelier.  I would probably use a different comforter though, I love the pop of blue but would probably trade it for yellow.

The mix of colors in this dining/den area are so cheery.  I love the bright yellows and reds mixed with turquoise. Photo from http://www.designarthouse.com/interior-and-designs/southwest-home-decor-ideas/

Love Neutrals

I am defiantly ready for the weekend, even if I have to spend it writing a 7 page research paper...things have been a little chaotic lately with school and life in general!

My favorite type of outfit to wear is casual yet classy which is what I created today with this look.  I have always loved wearing neutral colors, they give off more of a "softer" look.

Matinee Movie Date

For our 7th wedding anniversary, the Mr. and I decided to go to a matinee movie date to see The Lone Ranger (the day before our anniversary, Sunday).  It was a great movie, go see it!  We also went out to eat at Tomasita's in Santa Fe last night and hung out around the Santa Fe railyard for the evening.

I have had this chiffon feather top for a few years now and I have been in love with it ever since I bought it off of eBay.  I love how it ties in the back with the purple feathers!
