I'm a little over the moon with my Midnight Rider tees that were lovingly gifted to me a few weeks ago. You will be seeing more and more of these babies. Check out my interview over on their blog and learn some of my favorite local spots and a few more things about yours truly. Being a texas gal, Midnight Rider has my heart.

I am sooooo in love with this bell sleeve top from Gaia Conceptions. The fabric just hangs just right on the body and it is sooo flattering. And this squash color? Perfection. I wore it two days in a row (and Im not even going to tell you how many days in a row I wore these cut-offs)... It's been a while since Ive done a make-up less outfit post too. Now that summer is here there will be more and more sans makeup days. Oh, and for the first time maybe in my whole life I painted my nails BRIGHT red, and I kind of love it. I wasn't sure if Id love it or hate, but Im happy to say I love it. Nice little surprise.
I'm so happy I am going on a date with my bestie tonite. She has been out of town for a month now for her daughters surgery, so it will be so good to be with her and catch up. Tonite can't come soon enough!

Remember I said we did some thrifting this past weekend? Well here are some of my finds! AMAZING. Ive been looking for a good vintage wallet for years and I finally found the perfect one. So so in love. Everything reminded me of my mom this week, it was crazy. Especially that wooden sun wall hanging. Can't wait to find the perfect little spot for it in the house. And just like my mom, I have a thing for old bottles and old wooden spoons. (among a million other 'old' things).
The images below were from our second round of thrifting. This belt is just so beautiful. And the round paisley tablecloth is perfect b/c we just moved one of our backyard tables to the front, so I will use this to have front yard lunches now!
Ive been eyeing this rug at world market for a long time now, so I jumped on it when I got a 25% off coupon from my member savings, a total score at only $37 for a beautiful 5x7 rug! I couldn't be happier and you know you will be seeing peeks of it crop up in all of my photos. And its completely Bella approved. She won't stop laying on it!
BTW... TODAY is the last day to pre order these two shirts below in my hubbies shop. Please read the listings carefully before purchasing, and not there are separate listing for the womens and unisex sizes. Size details are carefully listed on the listings. Ends at midnight Texas time.
Ive been all about my home this week. I think after being so busy with the Dylan shirts for a month straight, I completely lost all time and energy to put into my home, which is normally a daily thing for me. I love when my home is clean, my floors are vacuumed, things are put away. It just makes me feel less stressed. Of course its not always like that. Its a constant thing... but letting it go for weeks and weeks, it got bad! I didn't just have dust bunnies, it was more like dust monsters!!! My vacuum had been clogged up so bad it was better just to sweep, but James fixed it up for me and it works like new again. (yes, i get completely excited over my vacuum).
This weekend has brought much stress relief to my life! I finally took some time off and it felt so good. Friday afternoon James and I took a trip to Fredricksburg so I could buy this beautiful flag you see above for an upcoming lookbook, and just for my home b/c its beautiful. It will be adorning our porch soon. We walked around the town after that and grabbed some dinner at this place we had gone to with my mom many years ago. We took a back road home that we had no idea where it led to and it ended up being the LONG way home, but it was super nice. It was a small backroad with lots of ranches and cattle. We drove over about 10 cattle guards. We were just glad there was an out and we didn't have to turn around and go back to the entrance b/c it was the longest road ever!
Saturday I spent the entire day cleaning the house. Man it felt good. Its already a mess, just two days later, ha ha. But much cleaner than it was before. It instantly made me feel good. Sunday I intended to knock out all the rest of my custom orders but I felt really tired and had a hard time focusing on anything, so not much got done at all... but that was a pretty good thing in the end.
Then yesterday after work we hit some thrift stores in Bandera and had the best thrifting luck ever. I found so many things that reminded me of my mom, even found some of her broken china jewelry at one place. And an old drawing of my friends dad who passed. It was like their spirits were all around us yesterday and it was such a good feeling. Ive been missing my mom so much lately, so it was like a big warm hug.
This morning James is home and he dug up our little rock path we made over a year ago that we did wrong and instantly got buried in dirt the first time it rained. So I got out their and put my hands in the dirt with him and relaid it. Its so cute, hopefully we did it RIGHT this time! I guess well see when it rains.
Now its time to get back to work. Get caught up on customs. Before I know it well be knee deep in shirts again. This round of Dylan tee pre orders ends in two days!!!
