Smile.

Being the boss has its perks... but a major con is definitely forgetting what day it is on a given weekday. Let me rephrase, I have trouble distinguishing a Monday from a Friday. But I am most certain it is because I have yet to find and settle on a routine and/or schedule to meticulously follow or at least attempt to.

Back to the perks! I love enjoying the world... and everything in it.

That, my friends, makes me smile. Best feeling in a long while!


Cheers to a great week!

Vintage Purse.

Yesterday I took a break from being at the office all day and took a stroll down the street to visit the antique stores in hopes of finding neat treasures, and I did! I found some more mason jars for my collection but the prettiest find was a cute little evening purse. I love purses, handbags, totes... they all scream femininity. 

When I came across this cute little black purse I squealed and knew I was taking it home. It's small and holds my phone, wallet, car keys and Chapstick. It is velvet with gold trimming and a row of six little rhinestones to add some sparkle. 

The best part, it cost me SIX DOLLARS! Wahoo! I found it at a cute little store called Coco's Vintage down Texas Boulevard in Weslaco. It is literally right across my office so I often do venture into it when I'm around. I searched for them online and found their Facebook page HERE






If you're in the area, you should take a stroll down Texas Boulevard and visit the antique stores!

Xoxo :)

Featured: Valley Wedding Social & Events Magazine

Ahhh!!!!

I may have slightly forgotten to share with you some great news!!! For the first time, ever!, my work has been featured and published in a magazine! 

{I am doing a happy dance at this exact moment. No, really I am.}

The Valley Wedding Pages is a local magazine that has grown into a hot magazine for local brides on their journey to planning a wedding. I've been a fan of collecting this magazine for years now!! I have always enjoyed flipping through it and admiring all the beautiful weddings and pretty pictures in it. I'm not a bride but the magazine has a soft spot in my heart regardless. 

I always wished and dreamt of the day that my work would appear in its pages... and guess what?! It has!!!

The Valley Weddings & Social Events quarterly magazine has featured Christina and Marco's romantic November wedding in their Spring issue. I am beyond excited. It is a small step for me here, but a giant leap of confidence I will treasure forever. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I have met a great new contact and am so delighted Rebecca, with the Valley Wedding Pages, gave me a call. Again, thank you!
