Twillys are a fun way to customize and dress up your bags. So I wanted to share 8 ways to tie an Hermes Twilly on your bag handles to give you some inspiration. It's up to you if you want to tie a twilly on one or both handles of your bags. In my personal opinion, I think you either wrap a twilly around each handle or none at all. Having a twilly on your bag handles will protect the leather. Therefore, you will get inconsistent wear on your handles if they're not on both. But if you're just looking to get one twilly to decorate your bag with many of these ways to tie an Hermes twilly work great as any accessory to your bag. If you're not concerned about wear on your bag handles, I highly recommend giving these a try! And the beauty about these is you can always switch them up! They're super easy to do, and don't take much time, so on ... Read more...
Cozy Slippers For Lounging at Home
Since quarantine started, one thing I've added to cart that has helped make the long days at home more comfortable are my cozy slippers. Before quarantine, I would walk around the house barefoot or would put on socks or my Uggs if I was cold. But I've never been a collector of cozy slippers.

Just kidding, I can't wait to get dressed ... Read more...

Easy Home Update: Installing New Window Shades
Installing new window shades has been on my list of home upgrades since we bought our house almost 6 years ago. I absolutely hated the cheap white blinds that came with the home. One of them was even broken from the get go. But, it wasn't high enough priority to take care of early on in our home ownership since we had much more pressing projects to do like our kitchen remodel, bathroom remodel, living room update, and backyard pergola, to name a few. But, since we've been on our shelter in place, we decided why not just go ahead ... Read more...
Smocked Spring Blouses and Squared Toe Strappy Spring Sandals
I feel like I go back to puff sleeve blouses year after year. Puff sleeves are such an elegant detail and elevate your top and jean outfits. Smocked spring blouses have certainly caught my eye this season and my favorite ones also have puff sleeves. This pretty green floral smocked spring blouse was a score from Target, that unfortunately sold out super quick.
