Spring Is In The Air

For today's post I wanted to show off some new additions to my house.  This past weekend the husband and I jumped into spring cleaning in anticipation of our new bed!

And yes that's my teddy bear Walter in his usual place of honor. 
Of course wouldn't you know I'd have a bear with a bow tie!

This duvet has put a bird on it!

There is ALOT of pillow action here and a awesome profile of Walter.

We got the bed, pillow, sheets, and duvet set at Macys(something similar here)

I am so in love with this bed, I feel like Snow White awakening from her class coffin with birds singing and fawns prancing.  It has definitely freshened up our bedroom and I've been trying to bring more spring into the house in general.  With flowers. 




Irises and Lillies for the dinning room table have made the whole house smell airy and light.

And I've also decided to change up my regular perfume for the season.  I've been wearing Banana Republic W for a while now:

Which has a very crisp scent, that I am attracted to.  But I've decided to mix it up with L'eau de Chloe

How gorgeous is this packaging! (You can also see a fig scented candle a friend got me that plays into this whole springtime fresh scent/vibe I'm going for.)  I decided on this new fragrance after coming upon a perfume add in Vogue.  I like to smell the inserts and if the husband is sitting on the couch with me while I'm flipping through I always like to ask his opinion.  When he smelled this Chloe he got a little frisky, so that's sold it for me. 

Happy Spring!

40 Year Old Cottagecore

  dress-Anthropologie(more options here ), sunnies- DIFF Eyewear , necklace- Benevolence LA , bag-- Shiraleah , sandals- Born I first became aware of Cottagecore earlier this summer and found it to be an aesthetic I can appreciate and find aspirational , but was not necessarily a style that aligned with my wheelhouse. Well as I've been growing my hair during covid quarantine and having picked up this dress as seen here , I felt that I was ready to tackle #cottagecore here on my 40th birthday!!! Yep, that's right today I turn 40 (but I don't look it). And while it's been a year like no other, I feel excited for my next year, decade, chapter of my life. I think it's fair to say I'm done having babies and ready to move on from the chaos of very little children to the chaos of big kids.  I no longer feel like I have something to proof in my work, writing, sense of self. I'm just going to enjoy and be grateful for the many blessings of family, friends, health, a...

Two Things

First: Isabel Marant's collocation for H&M debuts today in select stores AND online at noon, so you may want to get up on that.  Here are a few looks I'm lusting after. Hello mixed patterns!   Love the oversized coat and the detail on these jeans.   Patterned blazer, cropped colorful trousers, yes please!   Of course, I cannot partake in this collection with my Year Of No Shopping, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't. So get ready to go by noon because I'm sure this noise will sell out fast.   Number Two: I'm thinking about a new haircut.  Something along the lines of Tilda Swinton .     What do we think? I'm not going to go blond, but I like the shorter/buzzed sides and back with length on the top. Mr. Keller is hesitant, he thinks it's too masculine, but I'm kind of in the mood to go a bit edgy and I've had the same cut now for two-ish years...  FYI: Tilda Swinton is my spirit animal!   ...

Rent the Runway Wedding Vote

I may be on vacation at the moment, but I'm thinking of the future, in particular the wedding I'm attending back home next month. A ton of high school friends will be there. Some I am dying to hang out with, while others I'm hoping to make a bit jelly... Regardless, an outfit is required. I mentioned the idea of wearing a summer suit in this post . But now I'm feeling more of killer-blow-them-away dress.   I'm also thinking I may have to call in the big guns and utilize the services of Rent the Runway .  1.   Elie Tahari   Love the pattern here. The user reviews & pics lead me to believe this will be quite flattering on my body type.     2.   Kate Spade   This is so groovy and I love the use of a statement necklace in this look. But, I'm wondering if I'm not attracted to the overall styling of the picture for the website or if I really like the dress on its on.     3.  Milly ...
