Dresser Organization~ Pinterest "Duh!"

Somtimes Pinterest just makes me say, "Duh! Why have I never thought of that?"

Like simply organizing your drawers so you can actually SEE your clothes! 

Seriously.... genious people.

Has Pinterest ever made you say, "Duh!"?

Adventures in hair color

Ya'll know I like to change up the hair and since I am not cutting it, pink sounded fun.

I love how they just peek out the bottom. I can pull half of it back if I want to show more pink too.

Fun, right?!

My hair dresser kept complementing on how healthy my hair is looking and feeling. I have been using some new products and trying not to use too much heat on my hair since I am currently growing it out. I also have been using Wen (a cleansing conditioner) for a while now and that has made a huge difference in my hair's health.

I am going to write a blog post on my favorite hair products soon. :)

What I Wore.. pretty and printed..

Top Maurices, jeans Hudson Macys, wedges Maurices, necklace Stella and Dot.

Whoa.... hello dark roots! Note to self, get hair done asap!

Wearing pretty printed tops this week. 

It reminds me that Spring will be upon us soon, yay!

Ikat top and sweater Thrifted, jeans AG Macys, boots Steve Madden Macys, headband  (to hide said roots,ha!) thrifted, earrings World Market, watch Betsey Johnson (clearance) from Macys Birthday gift from Hubby.

Love!
Didn't he do good?
 I actully bought it for myself, with birthday money from my hubby of course. This was the first time I have gotten my own birthday gift from him. Is that weird? Or have you all done the same?
 Kevin thought it was a little strange.

Life Lately

My new watch! An early B-day present from Kevin. My favorite white watch recently broke and I found this cutie at Macys marked down from $140 to $80 (it's Betsy Johnson too!). So, of course, I had to get it and now the Mr doesn't have to pick one out for me. A win, win.....

Thanks babe, it's exactly what I wanted (wink)! 

Just finished all The Hunger Games books...... Holy Molly... they were awesome! And I liked the ending. I hate when books have bad endings.

Going to read them again for sure!

Found Two pairs of Citizens at GW Outlet and they were actually in my size! $2 each. And I was just telling Kevin how I needed new jeans. Score my friends, score!!

I also found this at GW and it's working like a charm. Get lots of smily faces all week and you get a reward like staying up later, ice cream, more video game time, etc...

Kevin's coworker's wife (thats a mouthful)  made us this brittle with chocolate and almonds. It is out of this world good! Like amazing!

Getting crafty, working on this watch. I started off with an idea but it didn't turn out as cute as I expected so back to square one. A blog post will follow. : )

That's my life lately.

Have a blessed week everyone!

What I wore.... Looking very Spring.

Dress Target via Goodwill, jean jacket (super old) from American Eagle, boots Coach Ebay, earrings thrifted and upcycled by moi.

The weather has been amazing! 70 degrees and sunny. So I decided these white legs needed some sun! Sorry if I blinded you all, ha!

Anyone else dipping into their Spring wardrobe yet?

What I wore... why I post what I wear.

Are my looks top priority in my life? No! And I am no "fashion blogger."

 But sometimes it's easier for us stay at home moms to stay in yoga pants or pjs all day. I mean, my kids certainly wouldn't care and my dogs don't notice either. But my husband sure does. He matters to me more than anyone on this planet! He deserves a wife that is put together. And I do too!

When I put effort in my appearance I feel better. I am more confident and productive. Bonus!

Yes, there are days when yoga pants are totally execptable. But most days, even if my only outing is to pick the kids up from school, I get dressed.

Posting pictures keeps me accountable. It's fun. And you all seem to like it too! ; )

Top Target, cardi Abercrombie thrifted, belt thrifted, jeans Hudson from Macys, wedges from Maurices, earrings from Target, bracelet from World Market.

Target top, jean jacket (old) American Eagle,  skirt Jessica Simpson from Marshalls, flats Lucky from Macys, necklace made by me.

Blessings, Nicole
