As you may know, I write for Babble’s beauty and style channels twice a week and as you may also know, Babble is a Disney owned company. A few months ago, one of my editors emailed out this post Sexy Cecaelia: Get Ursula’s Over-The-Top Under-The-Sea Look from XOVain as a fun suggestion and I was …
We have a really fun neighborhood full of great people and tons of kiddos, who happen to remember that we always give out full-sized candy bars on Halloween AND we let them choose whatever they want. This year was no different really, except for the addition of Miss Delilah George, who was meant to go …
Halloween or not, this may be one of my new favorite manicures ever. Done with metallics, shimmers, and fine glitters, any three colors would look fantastic really. After compiling my Halloween manicure ideas from around the web, I was determined to create something different. And while this isn’t spooky, I think it’s a chic way …
We’ve been a bit behind on the Halloween decor front this month because we’ve been so distracted by our house situation {we are in escrow, eek!}. My husband usually has boxes of king sized candy bars just waiting to hand out on Halloween to all the kiddos but he hasn’t even gotten them yet. This …
I pulled this from my 2012 Halloween Decor post because it was so long and photo-heavy full of Halloween decor, that my spooky-chic tablescape needed its own little post.

So I’ve been searching for a little Halloween nail art inspiration of course, and the internet is brimming with fun ideas. I gathered up my favorite manicures and my goal is to somehow come up with something new and different… and FUN! And …
Like many internet phenomena including ironic mustaches, balloons, and cute girls overdressed on bicycles, the chevron print is seemingly here to stay. Dear Internet, please don’t hate me for saying this BUT, the infinitely zig-zaging chevron pattern simply reminds me of Charlie Brown every time I see it. Saying that, however, It’s The Great Pumpkin, …
What You’ll Need * 2 Large {squished} white pumpkins {I don’t know the actual name of these, do comment if you do!}, 2 medium/round pumpkins, a few small white pumpkins. I tend to buy a few extra pumpkins during Halloween that I don’t carve so I can use them through November for Thanksgiving. Spray painting …
I was kind of excited about my haunted mansion ghost table idea for our Halloween party, which is why it was imperative that our new table arrive by Saturday morning …which it did. Yay. And with this ghost table idea in mind, I headed straight over to my mom’s last week to rummage through all …

Mid-summer I sort of {temporarily} gave up my dream of having a beautiful front lawn when I realized that no matter how much I watered it, the little neighborhood birds were going to continue to meet there every morning and eat up all the grass seed until it was gone …which they did …month after …
In or around 2008 when I had more free time and could read every single blog I came across on the internet, I found Sweet Paul, a mostly decor & food & fantastic photography blog and fell in love. But when I became depressed about living in the same dark condo for far too many …
