look what I got

I just got the cutest pair of jeans today. They came in the mail. I bought them online. I love packages at my door. It makes me feel happy.

I also bought some really cute tanks, which I love for our California Summer's.




This one is cute, but not sure if I am gonna keep it. It requires a racer back bra which I would have to purchase and I hate bra shopping. It is worse than jean shopping. But it is cute and I love the beaded detail, so we will see



Love the petal detail on this one. So cute. You can dress it up or wear it casual. I bought it in turquoise, hot pink and black. I also love the length on this one. It looks and feels expensive, but it isn't! Gotta love that





This one is also a maybe. I like it and the cute rainbow stitching, but honestly it makes me look like I'm wearing a towel. Its very boxey. My husband likes it, so I may give it a try {?}



I love the lace on this. It makes it feel feminine and I can easily layer it under a tee when the weather cools. I bought this one in lime, hot pink and white.







I HEART these jeans, big time. I always have a problem finding jeans that don't gap in the back. The description reads "lining that slims and trims while giving your butt a boost" I was all for that, but still had reservations. So I ripped open the package and tried them on immediately. . . I was sold.

FINALLY a jean that fit my ample rear and waist without needing a belt. They are so flattering on. I think I can give my GAP curve jeans a much needed rest as I will be reaching for these as my new FAV jeans.

Incase you want to snag a pair for yourself, the name of the jean is DREAMERS. Personally I think they should have named them The Dream Jean :}
I am getting another pair, probably in a lighter wash.


Everything I bought came from Old Navy. I love Old Navy, but I have shyed away from shopping there lately. It seems that they are trying to cut cost by making cheaper quality clothes. I bought a bunch of their tee's last year and they were horrible. They didn't stand up to more than a few washes before loosing their shape. Big disappointment.

So now, before I buy ANYTHING from them, I read their online reviews. They are real women posting real reviews and I have found them helpful with all my purchases.

enjoy :}

sew crafty

I love boutique ruffle pants and decided to make some for my little one. I bought a pattern last year and tried unsuccessfully to make them for her. I decided to give t another go and this time that they actually turned out right and she will wear them (big plus)

so here they are . . .











ideally, they would have been a bit longer. I think I will add another ruffle for some extra length but the good news is that they fit.

I also made a halter dress and will post pics once the weather warms up

I heart this

I recently purchased a necklace for myself, { okay, well it was last year, but still. } from The Vintage Pearl and I wear it almost everyday. It is so special to me because it represents my family. I chose 3 different shapes. Kaitlyn is a flower, Nicholas is a circle and Mark is a heart. Each shape represent something special.

Kaitlyn loves the necklace and has asked for one of her own ever since I got mine. So I purchased one for her as a birthday gift. I chose this one for her :





of course, it will say Kaitlyn and have her birthstone. {wink}
I am so excited to get it. I hope that she loves it.

happy shopping - tell her Baby K Designs sencha

design studio

I spend a lot of time in my design studio working. From time to time I like to daydream about what my studio would look like if I :
A) had the time to do it
B) had an unlimited budget {gotta dream big}
C) had the space ( I think that my room is about 12X14 - but feels like a 6x6)
Here are a few of my favorite inspiration rooms :




You can never go wrong with pottery barn - it makes me drool




I love these large storage tables in the middle of the room.



love the colors in this room and all the natural light




omgosh - could you imagine?



Dream big!

here are so swanky ideas for storage :



I could never keep it looking like this for long



more pottery barn (sigh)




This unit is from Ikea - I love the colors
and it's affordable (now we're talking!)



I am a huge fan of storage labeled bins



I am so using this as my inspiration for my designs studio closet


These are all so beautiful and so drool worthy . . . some day

{funny side note : my husband looked at the pic of the closet above and told me that the design studio closet looks like that but that I have to much "stuff" in there so I can't see it's true potential! hummmm, guess it's time to purge}
