Can I move in with Keri Russell?

I just can't get over how gorgeous her home is.  Maybe it's the white living room I've always dreamed about, complete with the ochre chandelier, fireplace, windows and piles of books.  Or could it be the delicious shelving specifically for shoes in her closet?

Either way, this is one home I come back to often.  Obsessed.

"Shoes make me happy." ~ Lauren Conrad

Can I seriously have Lauren's hair?  If I could trade with anyone, it would be her.  Here are a few tips to get that Lauren Conrad hair style:

First, part your hair slightly to the side.

Starting with the bottom layers, grab 1 to 2 inch pieces of hair, spray each piece with hairspray, then curl.

 Stop winding the hair around the iron a few inches from the root - you want to keep those semi-straight.

You may have to comb some of the curl out also.

Tools you will need:

Hot Tools 2111 Ceramic Tourmaline Curling Iron with Pulse Technology, 2-Inch

Big Sexy Hair Volumizing Hairspray, Spray & Play, 10.6 oz (300 g)

SEPHORA COLLECTION Wide Tooth Comb Large Wide Tooth Comb

Can you see why? 

P.S. this is the Chanel bag I want babe.  :)

Happy Mother's day!!!!

"When you are a mother, you are never really alone in your thoughts.  A mother always has to think twice, once for herself and once for her child."

~Sophia Loren

I have to say this has been one of the best Mama's day  ever for me.  I am extremely thankful for Joshy Bobby and our children.  Kagey slept in a extra 30 minutes, the kids made me breakfast in bed and presented their fabulous homemade kids (future DIYers already...I'm so proud!), then it was off to the park for playing and a delish picnic.  Once we got home, swimming, or in my case, laying out.....then pedicures with my ecstatic daughters.  Now we're wrapping up the night with tacos!!  Yum.

Since this is "my day", I had to put some of my projects on hold...but here is a quick peek at the shelves in process:

Can't wait to get them all finished and set up!

P.S.  What did you do to celebrate?

"Everybody knows there is no such thing as normal. There is no black-and-white definition of normal. Normal is subjective. There's only a messy, inconsistent, silly, hopeful version of how we feel most at home in our lives." — Tori Spelling (sTORI TELLING)

"I know there's been a lot of speculation, so I wanted everyone to hear from me ... It's official ... Dean & I are PREGNANT!!!!," Spelling, 37, Tweeted Monday.

Yay!!!  I heart Tori & Dean....and now they are having baby #3!!!
