Shoes of Pray.

It's as amazing as it sounds.  Shoes of Pray is a new website where you can design your own shoes.  You pick everything from the style, to heel height and thickness, to fabric and color, to toe shape & zipper color, and can even add little bits of decoration.  Yes please!  You're a bit limited as you start by choosing from only 16 styles.  But if you can find a style/shape you like, it's SO much fun to design from there.

Here's my creation...

Simple enough in tan but a pop of color with the neon heels and a little embellishment to make them a touch sassy.  Now, to spend the $330 on these or not...

Tahoe Love.

There are very few things I love more than a Lake Tahoe wedding.  My husband and I were married at a private residence on Lake Tahoe 2.5 years ago so it holds such a special place in my heart.   I can't wait to see this wedding unfold in our old stomping grounds of Incline Village.

Greg and Lauren reached out for help designing a Save-the-Date that felt very "Tahoe" chic but still fit their fun loving personalities.  So we went with a smooth, recycled paper, some Tahoe blue (of course) and tags attached with bakers twine.

I'm so in love with these.

I just received the invitation suite for this wedding and it's sooo beyond stunning.  Think... thick, soft cotton paper, letterpressed with light grey & sage green and matching painted edges.  Ugh, so amazing, I wish I could take credit :)

Etsy Find | Motekk Jewelry

I stumbled across this jewelry shop on Etsy and couldn't resist posting some of my favorites.

Motekk has all sorts of sweet and delicate pieces, made of sterling silver and gold filled/plated, so the prices only range from $20-45.  Definitely worth taking a peak!

Espadrille Wrapped Heels

I'm really loving all of the chunky, espadrille wrapped heels out there right now. But especially these two-toned, platform pumps from Ann Taylor...

Photobucket

They're actually a dark navy, so as soon as I find the right ensemble to go with them, I'll have the perfect excuse to add these to my wardrobe.  I'm thinking something super sassy  for my bestie's Vegas Bachelorette weekend coming up, oh boy!

Have a great weekend everyone :)

A Family Visit.

A couple pictures from my Mom, Grandma, Sister and Bro-in-law's visit a couple weeks ago... just because I'm missing them.  It was the first time Winslow met her Auntie Mae and Great Grandma who came all the way over from Bangkok and Melbourne.  So many smiles and giggles and strange noises :)

At the Botanic Gardens

And the family photo shoot at the park, of course...

Enough with the Blah!

While I can't complain about the weather here in Denver (which is almost ALWAYS sunny), I will complain about the dryness.  Like, staticy hair, chapstick in every room and jacket pocket, thickest of thick hand lotions near by at all times...  My skin was starting to look a bit blah, so, while at Sephora with my sister, I was talked into making these purchases...

Photobucket

I wanted to share because I was stopped by two randoms last week to ask what skin products I use.  *blushing* My skin all the sudden, has a fresh glow to it!  I guess these sorts of products work after all.  I've been using the Clarisonic at night and for day, the Stila Tinted Moisturizer over my normal moisturizer for some light coverage, with the Tarte Blush & Glow on my cheek bones and ridge of my nose.  I can't pretend to really know what I'm talking about with skin care and products (I didn't even wash my face every night, until this fun contraption came along), so now I'd like to introduce my friend, Janine.

Photobucket

Janine is that girl that you WISH you could hate, strictly based on the fact that she's so naturally beautiful and has perfect hair (can you sense the bitterness?!), but then to top it off, she's so genuinely sweet, you can't help but love her.  Ugh!  :)   Janine has a blog that consists of her blunt and honest reviews of all sorts of beauty products... from sunless tanner, to mascara, to green juice recipes.  She focuses on the more natural, organic products that we ALL should be converting to.  It's like having a virtual bestie telling you what to try and what not to waste your time and money on.  Janine's Beauty Blog, add it to the list!
