Weekend Cool

Exploring


This weekend Jimmie and I decided to explore Julian, CA. Living in southern California has its pros and cons. One con being, it's not the best for watching the foliage change for the fall. That being said we got in our car and drove...and drove and drove to Julian. It was refreshing to feel the crisp air once we got there and explore this cute little town. These booties were incredibly comfortable for the the walking (uphill and downhill) we did!

DIY- Revamp an Old Desk

I'm all about 'do it yourself' projects. I love painting and figuring out how I am going to revamp older furniture. Awhile ago I completed refurbished an old vintage chair. I find projects like this very fun and relaxing for myself. I was more than excited to revamp this old desk that had just been sitting around in a storage closet for who knows how long. Also this is by far one of the easiest DIY's I've done in a while.

All I did was roughly sand the entire desk.
Then, I painted three different layers of paint (first layer, a pale blue, second a creamy white, third a very pale grey).

After that I was basically done. Just added some final touches like little decorative items such as these little maps, a glass jar for my pens, a push pin board with some cute push pins and a basket.

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Yes, it's FALL. My favorite season (just like everyone else). But seriously, Fall is the best. From the pumpkin everything to the red and gold leaves, ahhh it just gets me every time. Wrap me up in a blanket with a pumpkin spice latte and a pumpkin cinnamon scented candle and I am good to go! Alright, enough about that, how adorable are these leggings! They have a little flower print and the best part is they feel a bit more structured than a legging but still extra cozy. I think these leggings would look very cute with a grey boyfriend tee and some nude flats and a messy bun for an extra laid back but put together look as well. Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday. Half way until the weekend.
