Falling in love with my decor

Hello!

Good Morning!!!

Happy Friday!!

Ewww Friday the 13th!!!

Today I wanted to share how cute my front porch has become!

To me, Fall is all about Football. My husband and I are playing Fantasy Football and well I was born a Redskin fan. 

Well there's no doubt that me coming from the house hold I grew up in with the porch decorated for Football season and even a Redskin Christmas tree this there would be anything different in my house.... Well we haven't gotten the Redskins Christmas tree yet.... But we now have the Front porch decorated and I couldn't be more excited!

Now, I was going to share this post a while ago but I didn't want to hear the back lash of still being a football fan when there are players in the organization being disrespectful.

I am a fan of the game! A player can come and go from the team I picked to follow or well was born into following.... So yes I continue to watch The Game!

With that said... Here is what made my porch Fall like this year!

With Mums the colors of The Redskins
A Monogram Football
Redskins Ribbon
and a garden flag...

I'm absolutely IN LOVE!!!

Of course Audrey and Oswald have to be featured as well.....

Audrey of course being the real model!

Tell me what you think?

Do you decorate for Football season as well?

Thanks so much for reading my post!

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Fall Accessory

Hey hey hey!!!

How are you doing today?

My friend was talking about needing ideas for her engagement pictures and BAM I remembered this scarf.... which it then opened up my mind for ideas glore!

The Fashionista in me is out ROARING over this awesome Fall Accessory that you have GOT to GET!

 Can we Talk about a must Have here please?

Now, I have had this blanket scarf for a while now and well I haven't worn it that much... SHAME!

I was also working in a child care center when I bought it so I never got to really wear it much.


Now as for the picture ideas.... I suggested they use it as a blanket to sit on... Cover up with doing those cute poses... her wear it as a scarf.... etc.

 Well I have now ordered 2 more in different colors.... I blame her... but then again..... WHY NOT have these in your wardrobe?

This one from Eleven Oaks Boutique

The this one came from Jane.com

 But let's go over these scarves... like you can create so many outfits with just one of these! They have so many colors so that's a different solid shirt, tunic, or dress!

With those shirts... different pants... jeans, khakis, or jeggins

cardigan...tank..jeans.... with boots...flats...sneakers!

But the scarf can be worn different ways!

Like a Scarf... tied different ways

Cardigan like with a skinny belt 

So many different possibilities!!

for $12 - $24 dollars you will totally get use out of the scarf!

This would be a perfect icing on the cake to your thanksgiving outfits!

Or if you just want to be TRENDY !!!

Do you have any other Ideas?

Do you have a blanket scarf yourself?

Let me know.. Share them with us!

<3 Ashley

I Just wanna be TRENDY!

Hey Everyone! 

Good Morning! 

Hope you are all doing well! 

So... I have to tell you about this conversation my friend and I had...... Well She just got back from Aruba and I was asking her for a Mexican night so we could talk about the trip and well be us. Cause, well... I have missed her. 

We got on the subject of me telling her how I have not been good and stuck with doing weight watchers and was feeling blah again so I know I need to do it and stop being this way. The she told me she was feeling Blah as well and was trying to be Trendy at work and really she was just feeling old!

I am older then her!

We then got to talking about all the trendy things we liked and our wants...

-Eyes-

 She said she wanted new Glasses and to start wearing them more and well You all know I felt the same way! ( New Glasses Post) 

-Hair-

 She said she was wanting pink hair and I said I did too just like a strand for Breast Cancer awareness month and yeah... kinda... almost...over. She is worried that her being in a wedding next weekend it would bother the bride that she has pink hair.

Well she now has pink hair! So points for TRENDY hair go to her!

 I told her I wanted a perm because lazy girl here would like to have curly hair more then the straight hair she has had her whole life and the hours of standing there it lasts maybe 2 hours max... Her reply was, " Umm... well they are coming back... but No don't do it."

Like fine.... Maybe I can try waving my hair the night before... Ugh

-Nails-

I told her I took off my acrylics using cotton balls soaked in nail polish remover wrapped tightly with Foil wile I watched an Episode of Game Of Thrones and it actually took my acrylics off nicely! 

We both agreed that we wanted to have our nails cool colors.... like Purple, Navy, and Burgundy, 

Also Black.... I love black nails! When they are short... Like right now I could rock the black nails....

-Boots-

She is wanting to go the Bootie route this year... Which I love and my girl can pull off any style!

The only bootie type look I do is the wedges!! Love love love these!!! I have black and tan and they go with everything!!! They help dress the outfits up a little and are so COMFY! 


Now I wear flat boots the most though and ....Well I just bought these boots from Payless!! Of course they had their buy one get one sale going on!

So I couldn't resist not getting these cause well I had tall brown boots but can only seem to find one boot....

Now I have no excuses!

-Sweaters-

We both agreed that we want to rock those off the shoulder sweaters with the lace bralettes!

Like pictured here.....

Which we haven't been able to find! 

Help us out!

Please!

I found sweaters on the Old Navy website and I had gotten the bralettes as gifts for my wedding/honeymoon....

So hopefully these will all work out to help me achieve that Trendy look.

-Accessories-

 I am all about the Blanket scarves... But what about when I am not wearing them or how about if I ever get to rock that sweater bralette trend... Choker! a thin black choker will  be wore for sure! Which thanks to Jane.com  I have already bought one! 

-Vests-

Well as for me.... I am in love with wearing my olive utility vest so much that I bought a khaki one  oh and ummm a Navy puffer vest.

Which with plaid shirts the vests are super cute!

I have wore my olive green vest with a navy stripe shirt and have received compliments galore.  

All the vest were purchased through Jane.com

Are there any other Trendy thing we should add to our list? 

What's your trendy list?

Let me know!

<3 Ashley

I can't see without my glasses!

Hello Everyone!

Happy Happy Happy Day!!!

How are you all doing?

Such a beautiful fall day here today!

 So....  I want to share with you something I did out of my comfort zone!

Thanks to the fashionista inside of me.... I ordered some new glasses from Eyebuydirect.com

Now... I wasn't in a real need of new glasses... more of a want... but then too my glasses weren't with my new prescription and starting to get a little tough to see more then normal driving at night if I wore them or reading the titles on Netflix 

Well I had been seeing these frames advertised on Pinterest and the more and more I saw them I just had to have them!

Now they weren't frames that were suggested for me and they actually suggested the look a like frames that I already have.  Which I do like my frames I have but I wanted a different option. 

See nothing wrong with them at all... just wanted... something new!

I ordered them and showed Kris... He said, " Ashley, They look like the glasses Supergirl wears." Could be why I liked them so much!

Then he proceeds to tell me that they remind him of the glasses his mom wore in the 80s

Great... so I am nervous now waiting for them to arrive....

I watched the order updates like a hawk which I will say it was totally cool to know what they were doing each day it was updated!

Alright so now what do ya'll think?

Hope you all enjoy today!!

I'm all "4" this look!

Good Morning!

Happy Thursday! Whoot whoot! 

I have a new Fall look that I think I have been wearing every other day that I'm not wearing the Rose Gold Look!

Using:

Touch Liquid Foundation in Taffeta 

Touch Mineral Liquid Conceler 

Beach front Bronzer Sunset

Eyes : Honest and Cheerful from Palette 4

Moonstruck Eyeliner Pencil in Perfect

3D Fiber Mascara

Brows: Light Moonstruck Precision Brow Liner and Gel

LIPS: Pouty Lip Liner with Upscale Lipstick

I still don't feel very comfortable with my eye shadows... I love the palettes and know they can create so many looks and I have been trying and going out of my comfort level and trying different colors rather then just the neutral colors and not just doing one all over color. 

If you have any questions about the products.... please feel free to ask!

I won't bite or laugh!

Hope you all have a wonderful day!
