  • Signed a lease on an apt in Atlanta
  • Found out that my boyfriend is going to be an uncle for the first time
  • Turned 22
  • Saw my brother excel in culinary school

  • Ran my first 5K

In 2012, I...

Wednesday Eye Candy

I will let you browse these pictures and judge for yourself, but I am in love with this Chicago home.

Personally, I would pick this house up and move it to a different city.. Paris, Nantes perhaps? But it is a dreamy home that deserves to be shared!

My Motto

DO WORK, SON. 

Trying to keep this in mind as I go about my work week...

Boss Art Print

Right Where I Can See It...

Big news.. I finally found my big-girl Atlanta apartment! It is exactly one mile away from my work, right in the center of Buckhead, walking distance to tons of restaurants, shopping, Lenox Mall, Phipps Plaza aaaand... I will have my very own walk-in closet. As you can see, I'm pretty pumped about it. Too bad most of my income goes to my student loans and not shoes...

I totally wish I could put some seating in my closet and make it an extravagant, soothing space where I can drool over my amazing wardrobe (that I don't actually have).. but alas, I haven't quite made it to that level in the world yet. I would, however, love to paint the interior a really fun color, like the turquoise (or grey) stripes below. That I can do! Also, flowers make everything better. :)
