WEEKEND THINGS

Is it just me, or is there never enough weekend time? As soon as I reach Friday afternoon I feel like I'm back to Sunday night mentally preparing for another work week. If only every weekend were a three day weekend! 

This past weekend Dan and I took a little extra time off work to do some traveling to visit friends and family. As we were packing up Friday afternoon, these pictures happened. I went against everything I always said I would do with a big dog and allowed our Piper up on our bed. Last week we started to notice a slight limp on one of her front legs and I just couldn't say no to letting her be in the most comfy place possible. Dan convinced me it was "doggy bed rest". I have a feeling she will be wanting up there much more often now. :-) 

Anyways, I just couldn't help but get out my camera and start snapping away at the adorableness. Plus, give you all a sneak peek at our new bedroom! We had such a fun, refreshing weekend spent with people we love. Hope everyone of you had an amazing weekend as well!

WALL ART ROUNDUP

1. Rifle Paper Co. / 2. Sugar Paper / 3. Minted / 4. Elizabeth Mayville / 5. Made by Girl / 6. f2images / 7. Sarah Swanson Design (as seen on Doctor's Closet) / 8. The Everygirl / 9. Sugar Paper / 10. The Everygirl / 11. Katie's Pencil Box (Dayton Local) / 12. Made by Girl / 13. Minted ( Dayton Local)

We are currently in the process of shopping for wall art for the two rooms we have been working on the past few months - our living room and bedroom. Repainting an entire house (including word work) has been a seemingly overwhelming task but we are taking it slow...a room at a time! I am happy to say that we are close to finishing two rooms in our home and I couldn't be happier about it. Adding the finishing touches to any room is always my favorite part. It's at this time when you finally start seeing all the pieces come together to create the room you imagined and planned for. If you follow me on Pinterest, you're probably tired of me clogging up your feed with all types of art. But, here are a few of my favorite pieces I've found so far! Enjoy!

BREAKING ALL THE RULES

Dress: Jillian Harris for Privilege Clothing, Booties: exact, DV by Dolce Vita 'Mani' boot (old), similar here and here, Necklace: exact, Nordstrom (unavailable), similar here. 

After almost a month away from blogging, many long days of house painting, and the start of another school year, I am finally back at it! Life has been what you may call "a little crazy" for this girl, her hubby, and new pup. We're doing our best to balance life in a new exciting chapter. 

Having said all of that...who's ready for fall? I know I am! In a way I feel like we skipped over summer this year. I can count the number of times I went to the pool this summer on one hand. And. That. Is. Not. Okay. Although I always miss the warmer weather, I cannot help but get caught up in all the fall fashion - it's my absolute favorite! I have never been one to follow the "no white after Labor Day" rule. A white boho dress paired with nude ankle booties is the perfect way to carry whites into fall! 

You may remember Elementary Style's first post, Inspired by Jilly, where I shared my love for Jillian Harris. When she came out with her own clothing line for Privilege Clothing Boutique I knew I would fall in love with her pieces. The Peggy Dress is fun, flirty, and can be worn many different ways. This sunflower field is a Dayton staple in the early fall. It's a perfect place for shooting pictures and I just couldn't pass it up! 

Happy September! Thanks for stopping by!
