Site Shoutout-Spanish Moss
So as I was doing research on Upstate for my Osborn Design update when I stumbled on Spanish Moss and immediately found myself oooohhhhing and ahhhhing. I absolutely LOVE this shop. Spanish Moss is a tightly curated shop of vintage and new items. The feel of their clothes is boho, rocker, sex bomb, pretty–if that makes sense. I am loving so many things from Spanish Moss; their shop brand American Gold is made in sunny California :). I really adore… View Post

I kind of love this. I don’t know about everyone else but sometimes I feel like I am so busy trying to do everything and be there for everyone that I need to take a step back and remember it’s okay to, “DO LESS.” And then sometimes I want to change a situation and make things happen and I have to remind myself you need to “DO MORE”.

I Heart the Internet
Hi friends, it’s Monday and per usual I fall in love with the internet over and over again :). I’m trying to integrate a quote every week for you. I was having an internal problem in my head by trying to relate the image of choice to the quote plus making them relevant to the links and it was a mess (seriously hours of head time)…so now it will be structured more like a little bit of words to start… View Post
