Currently



Another Friday, another Currently! Work has been so busy and crazy recently, so I'm really happy to see Friday here. Plus, I'm not traveling so it will be nice to spend a weekend in Nashville. As much as I love going on trips and visiting friends, I also love being in my own city. Do y'all have fun plans? I'm doing a yard sale with a co-worker on Saturday - we are selling all of our old clothes that we don't wear anymore! Other than that, I don't have any major plans, but I am hoping to get out one night and let loose! Now - for what I've been Loving and Lusting over this week!

----

1. Sole Society Suede Bow Pumps: Now that we are in October, it's time to dress like it's fall, even if the temperatures do reach 80 every now and then. Since I haven't had a full time job the past 2 falls, this is the first time I've needed clothes and shoes for "fall lady executive" (lady executive being used lightly). I think these pumps would be a good addition - a good neutral and I love the bow! Plus, you can't beat the price. $50?! That's a steal.

2. Target Ponte Moto Jacket: I want this. I need this. It's been sold out everywhere in the olive color and now it's back online. Yep. Already in my cart.

3. J.Crew Bracelet: I mean... it's just pretty. I love jewels. Can I have everything on J.Crew's website?

4. Domino Magazine: Did you hear? Domino Mag is BACK. For all the home decorators and interior designers, this is great, great news. The magazine is coming back digitally, and will be published for newsstands quarterly. The first issue goes on sale October 8. All is right in the design world again.

5. Jimmy Fallon: So this isn't a pair of shoes or sweater, but I am absolutely lovingggg Jimmy Fallon. His skits are hysterical - did you see #Hashtag with Justin Timberlake (another one of my favorites)?! It actually doesn't get old - I've watched it probably 15 times now. Or the insane lip sync battle with Joseph Gordon Levitt and Stephen Merchant? It's priceless, and JGL kills it with Superbass. Team Fallon right here.

6. Nashville Map Print: The coffee table is complete (more on that next week), so now we need to find a rug and start decorating the walls. I think this Nashville map print is a given, and I think it would look great in our entryway above the entryway table. Oh Nash, how I love ya.


Happy Friday and have an amazing weekend!

Happy Friday! This post is coming straight from the Nashville airport.

I'm really sorry about the radio silence this week. It was a busy weekend with friends in town and this work week didn't slow down at all, with plans every. single. night. I'm not complaining, everything was fun, but I feel like I've just been going non-stop. Can someone tell me what even happened in March? I swear it has flown by way more quickly than other months. No excuses though, I'm going to be better and get back to my regular posting come Monday.

A few things I'm loving on this week... can you tell I'm ready for the pool, warm summer nights and al fresco dinners?! It actually snowed on Tuesday - talk about a sick joke by Mother Nature.

This weekend I'm heading off to Washington DC for a huge party known as TOTS (Taste of the South). Couldn't be more excited to be with best friends, in our nation's capitol, breaking it down on the dance floor. Currently waiting on a plane to arrive so I can actually get there... Got to love traveling. Hope you all have fun plans this weekend - and I'll be back on Monday with a recap of my trip!

I'm just so glad it's the weekend, aren't you? I don't know why, but this week seems like it has just gone on forever. It is supposed to be springy and warm, so I'm planning on spending time outdoors in the sunshine, maybe grilling out or sitting on a patio, sipping a drink. Sunday is Daylight Savings, which officially means our days will be longer. That might be better than Christmas, at this point.

Things I'm loving this week: How perfect is this hot pink Equipment dress? It would be a closet go-to for me, and if pink isn't your thing, don't worry because it also comes in black and blue. This little purse from Gigi New York is the perfect color and size for the warm weather months ahead. It is big enough to hold a phone, credit card, and lip gloss, but small enough to look a little dressier than an everyday bag. The blue and green vases from Target's Threshold line (can Target do anything wrong?) are so pretty and I love the idea of pink peonies and tulips in them. Finally - my sister gifted me this awesome print for Christmas, along with 3 others. She's insanely talented (check out her website) and I'm just obsessed. I haven't hung them yet - how do you hang anything on plaster walls?? - but I can't wait to get them up.

Happy Friday, happy weekend!

What a week! A few things I'm loving and lusting over this week - like this Calypso sequined jacket. How amazing would you feel wearing that? Instant celebrity power, I'm telling you all! I'm pretty sure the Topshop tank could quickly become a staple in my spring/summer wardrobe, especially since it comes in a variety of colors, and I love those snakeskin pants.

Hope everyone has a great weekend. I'm excited to have absolutely no plans, especially since I have a busy spring coming up. I'm envisioning sleeping in, watching Oscar-nominated movies, and quality time with friends. See you all on Monday!

My apologies for the day late Currently post! Blogger was being kind of weird yesterday when I tried to post, so I couldn't get this live. But here we are! This week, I am loving the most recent Everygirl apartment tour. Did you see it? I always enjoy the apartment tours, but this is probably my favorite in a really long time. Not to mention, the story was great as well. If you haven't seen, check it out ASAP! Other things on my radar: this great and affordable tortoiseshell cuff, a comfy shirt from Loft that I'm kicking myself for not grabbing while my size was in stock, and a pretty Valentine's Day card from Sugar Paper. The Archipelago Soy Milk lotion has been saving my skin during this cold, dry winter, which I have been over for about a month now! These sad gray skies make me want to brighten my day with this great spring/summer purse. So colorful and fun!

This week's Currently has a theme to it, doesn't it?! I didn't even realize until about halfway through that everything I was adding had some black and gold in it, and then I just had to keep the theme going! This week I am loving some cute coasters from Sugar Paper that are perfect for the upcoming Valentine's Day and this Threshold bench that I would love to have in my house... the question is where! I've loved the Kendra Scott pendant necklace for so long, and the bracelets from C.Wonder are just great accessories to any outfit (plus an extra 50% off!). If you have friends that are getting married, I highly suggest the adorable cocktail glasses from Furbish Studio. At only $18, they are such a good deal and a present that's different than hand towels. This jumpsuit rings in at under $100 - just barely - but it seems like something that you could have for years. And I've had my eye on this J.Crew jeweled shirt for awhile now... and it's 40% off.

I'm planning on spending my weekend relaxing - going to a movie tonight, maybe shop around Franklin tomorrow... ah it sounds nice to just hang, doesn't it?! Have a great weekend!

Now that the holidays are over, it's time to get back to the Currently series! All of this cold weather has really gotten me in the mood for spring and summer - and the clothes that come with warm temperatures! I'm more than ready to be laying at the pool and wearing sandals and skirts or dresses out.  Who is with me?! If only we could fast forward to April!

Oh yay, it's Friday already! My week went pretty fast with plans, including a movie night at work, J.Crew Style Sessions (more on that next week), and seeing Catching Fire last night! And next week is Thanksgiving and I'm heading home. I. can. not. wait. The last time my siblings and I were all home might have been Christmas, and that's just way too long. Three more days!

__

1. Design Darling Turquoise Tassel Earrings: I have loved these statements ever since I saw them in Mackenzie's store, but since seeing Liz style them, I'm even more obsessed.

2. Quilted Baby Brompton Purse: I have been wanting a new purse (haven't splurged on one since freshman year of college, eeek) and after seeing this one at J.Crew on Wednesday, I think I might have found a winner. I love the size and the quilting adds a little something extra. The question is, red or black?!

3. Furbish Christmas Pillow: It's Christmas, and why not? This pillow would be so cute in my living room and the perfect addition of Christmas cheer.

4. Minnie Pant in Medallion Print: I am a huge lover of the Minnie pant and wear them to work at least twice a week. Now they come in a print, which I am a huge fan of. Even better, they are 25% off at J.Crew through Sunday.

5. J.Crew Factory Sequin Bow Cardigan: A perfect sweater for the holidays, or any time, really. Putting this on just has to add a little pep in your step, right? It was in J.Crew last year and I loved it, and now it's at the Factory, and I love it just as much, if not more.

Anyone know how it is already Friday?! I swear this week just flew by. It was a fun one - we had a pre-launch party our moonshine client Monday night, Adweek named The Buntin Group top agency in Tennessee, went to a "Style Setters" event at the Hermitage Hotel on Wednesday and spent last night relaxing. This weekend I'm headed to Indiana to see a sorority sister get married. Can't wait - it's the first wedding of my group of friends and I'm SO excited to see everyone and celebrate Brooke and Mark! Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend. Now for my weekly loves and lusts:

---

1. Lulu & Georgia Lydia Lamps: If you haven't heard of Lulu & Georgia, head to the site now. They have a fantastic assortment of rugs at all prices, lamps, pillows, and home accessories. I love the set of the Lydia lamps. I think the chartreuse is so fun, but I could also go for a neutral like black or ivory.

2. Alexander Wang Motorcycle Jacket: I mentioned last week I want a leather motorcycle jacket - although with my budget I likely will be settling for a "vegan" (aka a fancy way to say fake) leather jacket. If I had endless funds, I would be making this Alexander Wang jacket mine. It's basically perfect. This Old Navy version is a pretty decent option though, and $50 is much more affordable!

3. Club Monaco Sunglasses: Because why not? They are a classic shape and I love tortoiseshell.

4. Dash & Albert Rug: We are in need of a rug and I think this one is an excellent one. After seeing it on Liz's blog, it seems like the perfect balance of a pattern and a neutral. 

5. Sailor Knot Earrings: Mackenzie has such a good selection of products in her shop, Design Darling, and these earrings are just one of many items to catch my eye. I currently wear diamonds as my every day earring, but I think a classic pair of gold earrings is an essential. 

6. J.Crew Elbow Patch Sweater: It just wouldn't be right not to include J.Crew, would it?! I absolutely love all of the new fall arrivals, including this sweater with the leather elbow patches. So cute, classic, and cozy for the fall months ahead!

Currently


I've decided to start another series on the blog called "Currently". Each Friday I will highlight certain things I've either come across during the week and absolutely love, or pieces that I've been lusting after for some time. I hope you all enjoy the series and as always - I love hearing feedback!

Also - you may have noticed some slight website redesign. I'm in the process of making the site more personalized and not the standard template it once was. I've added an About Me section, and a Nashville section, where I'll highlight my favorite places to eat, go out, and shop in Music City.

----

1. J.Crew Merino Boyfriend Sweater : How comfy and cozy does this sweater look? I want it in literally every color. Especially this gray and the dusty jade. Even better - J.Crew is offering 25% off select shirts, sweaters, and bags through Sunday, and this sweater happens to be one of them. 

2. J.Crew Etta Pump in Calf Hair : I'm pretty sure I would wear these shoes with just about everything this fall and winter. I don't own a pair of the Etta pumps, but I've read other bloggers rave about them. I love the chunky heel and haven't you heard? Leopard is the new black. 

3. Anthropologie Celestial Coaster Set : As I'm in the process of decorating my not so new house, I'm on the look out for things to make it feel truly like my own. I know coasters aren't exactly essential, but once we get the coffee table in, these would come in handy for drinks. Plus I love them... the question is, which color?

4. Kate Spade Saturday Heeled Boots : Want. Want. Want. I so badly want a good pair of heeled boots for fall. They are right up there with a leather skirt and motorcycle jacket. These ones from the Kate Spade Saturday line are borderline perfect. Now can they go on sale?

5. Bauble Bar Ice Salazar Earrings : Because why not? Every girl can use some awesome earrings in her jewelry box.

6. NY Times 36 Hours Southeast : Again in the spirit of decorating the house, I think this would be a great book to have on the coffee table. Plus, living in the Southeast I would like to take full advantage of traveling around. I already have my Southern Living magazines bookmarked, and this would only add to my to-do list with insider information on where to eat, travel, shop, and sight see. 

7. Loren Hope "Carina" Necklace : Loren Hope's fall line will be receiving a dedicated post, but this is just one of the amazing pieces I'm coveting. I honestly would like every single necklace, bracelet, and earring set in her collection. Oh em gee.
