This week’s must haves!

August 14, 2020 by Fotini Filed Under: 14 meals, 16, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 25 Days of Christmas, 27 West & Co., 4th of July, lifestyle

One thing that hasn’t subsided during this quarantine is my love for shopping đŸ€·đŸ»â€â™€ïž I have been blessed to be staying busy & still manage the time to snag me a few new goodies here & there! Today I’m sharing this week’s must haves with you!

My Amazon shopping cart is somewhat like my brain, slightly scattered! I never know what my little heart is going to desire. But this week I actually snagged some beneficial things that will come in handy!

So, without further ado, let me get to sharing each piece!

No one likes a messy purse. I guess I can’t speak for others, so let me just say, I don’t like a messy purse. It gives me anxiety & I can’t stand not knowing where specific items are at. My current bag is huge & it’s not hard for things to get lost in there. My solution was snagging a felt fabric insert to organize each & every little thing! GAME CHANGER!

I have been following so many bloggers that have purchased the Mosanana square cat eye glasses, so I ordered them too! I have an obsession with sunglasses, you can never have too many! However, I was NOT crazy about these when I got them. I have a fuller, round- shaped face & they just didn’t look right on me. Needless to say, they will be going back.

I drink water on a daily basis, usually out of a large tumbler & maybe fill it twice. I never really kept track of how much water I was actually drinking in a day. So, I bought this motivational water bottle to help me keep track. I was pleased to know, I was pretty much drinking the same amount already, but this helps me stay on track! Be prepared to be using the bathroom, a lot!

Here I’m wearing this light leopard print kimono & my distressed denim shorts & I love this combo! It’s the perfect outfit for feeling cute & comfy! I also ordered the same kimono for my Mom. She lives in Florida & it’s the perfect beach/pool coverup!

And, you know I’m a sucker for animal prints, so I went ahead & ordered the snakeskin booties that I had my eye on last year! Stay tuned I will be doing some outfit shares with those! Just know, they’re adorable & I love them! Especially for the price!!

As always, you can never go wrong with smelling good! It’s the necessity to any & every outfit no matter what! I love sticking with my favorite scents! I have worn Clinique Happy for almost 20 years & still love it just as much!

Last week I stopped by Ulta to snag a new perfume, but because of Covid you cannot smell anything. Boooo. So, I ordered Coco Chanel Mademoiselle & we will see how I like it! Have you tried it before? What did you think of it? I typically opt for light , sweet scents.

Well friends, that’s a wrap! That’s this weeks version of my must haves! I’m already working on next week’s. Don’t judge â˜ș

Faux plant inspiration

Well hello there stranger! It has been awhile since I’ve been around here! I’ve been taking some much needed time to myself, but ready to get back into the swing of things. Now that winter is almost over, I am in full Spring- mode over here! You too?

Today I wanted to share with you some simple ways to add spring into your home! These faux plants will inspire you to bring life into your decor! Click on any picture below to be taken directly to that product! Easy peasy!

 

 


If you follow me on Instagram, you know last week I bought some live house plants to add into my decor! I will be sharing how I incorporated them throughout my home soon! I’m crossing my fingers that I’m able to keep them alive! My wrap sheet to this point is unsuccessful with live plants, but I’m hopeful this go-around. If you don’t want to take the risk with live houseplants, these faux ones are the next best thing!! A lot of times, you can’t even tell the difference!

These little faux plants are the perfect addition to your coffee or side tables, mantel designs, bookshelves, windowsills and added to your kitchen decor, just to name a few! I love adding herbs into the kitchen! I spend a lot of time in my kitchen, so seeing those sweet little plants makes me happy! It’s the little things people!

I will be back here soon with an update on my Spring mantel design!

My Favorite Fall Finds from Amazon

October 8, 2018 by Fotini Filed Under: fall, home decor 2 Comments

Today I wanted to share with you, my favorite fall finds from Amazon! Back when I was regularly blogging about home decor & decorating frequently, I would frequent my favorite stores weekly. Now days, I’m lucky if I make it to the grocery store. At times like that, I appreciate online shopping from places like Amazon! These are neutral pieces that are sure to fit into your farmhouse home decor perfectly!

The weather here in Ohio went from the 90’s one day, to literally the 60’s the next! A typical Ohioan would say, “welcome to Ohio”. I’m not complaining one bit about the dropping temps! I am SO ready for the crisp temps that come with the changing season. The changing of the season’s has me eager to decorate the inside of my home to cozy, romantic comfort!

One of my favorite things to do each evening is light candles! Not only for the scent, but because it creates such a relaxing atmosphere. Our living room is where we spend most of our time in the evenings, so lighting some candles on the mantel after dinner, cozying up on the couch & watching our favorite shows is something I look forward to every day! You could also say I’m pretty cheesy in the sense of, every Fall it’s time to break out our favorite annual Halloween movies! Movies like Casper, Hocus Pocus & The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown â˜ș

Incorporating neutral tones is one of the simplest ways to change the decor during the season. For example, if you want to start with this neutral design, then add in some spooky details for Halloween and then simply transition into Thanksgiving decor. You can do so, so easily using these staple decor pieces!

What is your favorite way to bring Fall into your home each season? Do you have traditions that you tend to follow each year when it comes to decorating or incorporating certain pieces?

I would love to hear your remarks! Thanks so much for stopping by & shopping a little bit with me today! I hope to see you back here again soon!
