so stoked!

Oh yeah!! Feelin' great today as I've gotten all of my bills paid for March as of yesterday ANDDD got my living room up to date and its looking awesome! I have a much better idea of what I need to get to complete the look, and I'm getting awesomely close. Obviously, I have pictures. No blog of mine with updates on the look would be complete without pictures!!! If only I had more time to actually craft and had a good space to paint stuff, or else my blog would be so much more exciting. But I live the life of a lowly going-back-to-college-student with a part time job. ha! So at this point I've hung ALL my pictures, that I have at least. I moved the black trunk upstairs to the end of the bed...and love it there. And I rearranged some of the furniture downstairs. No pictures of upstairs yet, as I have to still put laundry away...
Here are some before & afters:

&after!: 





so as you see, I have a beautiful display of pictures and peacock-yness everywhere!
I'm very happy with how everything is looking, although I feel like I need something for the entry way walls, like opposite of the "friends and family" collage. I am planning on getting an armoire, called someone today from craigs list and hope they call me back soon!! Other than that the TV wall is very boring, but I still have my vintage metal peacock wall-hangings to put up and once the armoir is there I believe it will fill out some space and look perfect. AHHHH I'm so happy!!!



by the way , I way overcooked the lobster so that sucks.

I think I might blog about it

I am feeling bloggy today! I'm about ready to fire up the instagram (and dare I say start up my tiktok?) again and in about a month I'll be making the switch to my fall/winter capsule wardrobe. But here's the thing...I'm having SO much fun in my current spring/summer one! I'm pretty sure I am going to combine them for a somewhat larger than average, but longer lasting, capsule. A lot of people switch theirs every season. I tend to switch it up every 6 months. Now it may be more of a "this is my wardrobe forever and everytime I buy something new I get rid of something with holes or stains" wardrobe.  Anyway- My incredibly loose formula for building a capsule is as follows:  Figure out my color scheme! I did a brown base for my last fall/winter and navy base for my spring/summer. I think that this time around I will do a navy base for my fall/winter, but keep in some of the brown as a secondary color. I also always have a cool off-white as my second base col...

Time for my yearly check-in!

 Ok so- (have you ever seen that video about the end of the world from ebaum's world? well this was said like that guy....)  Alright the first thing is first - I have an 18 month old daughter and am hoping to get pregnant again in the (near?) future. This means that I am living in that postpartum mama bod world and am not mentally ready to try and get slimmer yet. Maybe I never will! I have a somewhat apple/rectangle shape and lots of belly!! I am also petite in height. This makes it SO hard to find clothes that fit AND look good on me! I have searched high and low for jeans that fit and also don't give me a muffin top or fall down my narrow hips. Anyway, I have made a few purchases for some clothes that will be more flattering for my figure- finger's crossed. This means peplum tops, slacks, high waisted leggings/skinny jeans when they fit. I also have NO MONEY! So, some of my purchases have had to be through amazon and old navy in order to be able to afford clothing for my...
