Million Dollar Decorators

If there ever comes a point in time where I have to choose one TV channel to watch the rest of my life it would be Bravo. I love all the shows. I do realize a lot of the shows are train wrecks, but I can't help it, I'm addicted to Bravo and all their programming.

I'm super excited about the new show that is premiering tonight called Million Dollar Decorators. After hearing about this show for months it's finally here and I can't wait!

Ochre Chandeliers

When I saw the pictures of Keri Russell's brownstone home in Elle Decor, I was reminded of how much I love Ochre Chandeliers. The Arctic Pear Chandelier is one of my favorites. Here are some photos.

Sunday Dinner

Jeff made such a great dinner yesterday, actually he always makes great food. I just remembered to take pictures of the food so I can blog about it.




I'm trying to be better at taking pictures, so we decided to take a couple of pictures after church.



Jeff made Slow-Cooked Hoisin Pork Wraps with Coleslaw. The pork was delicious and it was so nice to come home and have dinner ready. I love the Slow Cooker. Jeff used a Miso Dressing for the coleslaw, which went perfect with the Pork.

Jeff was planning to make an Upside Down Pear Cake for dessert, but he ran out of time, so I made it. I have to say I loved the way it turned out and it tasted pretty good too. Now that I'm looking at this picture, I should have put it on a cake pedestal or something instead of an old cookie sheet. Maybe next time I'll work on food styling.

Stripes

This last year I've been obsessed with stripes. I love them. There is something about that nautical print that reminds me of spring. The navy and white is so classic and timeless, very Audrey Hepburn. A few months ago, I found some really cute striped shirts on the website Chance. Here are some of my favorites.














I think this dress would be really cute with a wide brown belt and some espadrille sandals.

Target Calypso Collection

The Calypso collection at Target launched May 1st and I can't believe I haven't been to the stores to check it out. I previously blogged about it here. I had good intentions to go, but it seems like we have been very busy the last few weeks and other things have been more of a priority. Hopefully I can make it to Target this week and hopefully they still have some items left. Here are some things I liked from the Target website.
