Austin Recap

Outside our hotel
Our oh so fabulous Regional Visual Manager
Vintage shopping... This vintage fur was only $300! Too bad I'm poor :(
O.M.G.
These shoes are so Lady Gaga! Austin by far had the best vintage shopping EVER!

I know it's taken me a while to post about my Austin trip, but I've just been so busy ever since we got back. It was so nice to put faces to all of the names I talk to and here about all of the time and we learned so much. I came back on Friday so inspired and ready to beautify my store! 

Aside from all of the learning and inspiration we were able to have a lot of fun, too. When you put a bunch of creative and stylish girls together in a cool place it is bound to be a good time! As you can see from the pictures we spent most of our free time shopping the amazing vintage shops! I wish we could have stayed there longer. It's such a fun artistic city. Definitely plan on returning there one day!

Austin Trip!!!

I am so excited to be going to Austin tomorrow. I've never been and we all know how I love to visit new places. Plus, I've heard so many fun things about the city. It's just a short overnight trip for a work meeting, but I've been so excited I've had my outfits picked out for over a month! I'm gonna see a lot of people so have to look my best :) The pics are of the cool hotel we're staying and meeting in. 

For now, I'm having to put my excitement aside and pack which is always stressful for me. But, I'm almost done and will be headed to the airport bright and early in the morning. I'm sure I'll have tons of pics to share when I get back!!

Good Buy: Denim Shorts

 Taking inspiration from Style Crush: Nicole Richie...
 Scarlet says "Mom, what are you doin?" This one is inspired by Style Crush: Olivia Palermo..
Obsessed with my new denim shorts (impulse buy). But, they were only $25 and will totally transform my wardrobe. I was wearing jeans way too much.

Fun Fall Ideas

This cool crisp weather here in AZ is making me want to decorate for Fall! I love the pumpkins with the wholes drilled into them. Such a cute and easy idea. The jar lanterns too! I need a back yard.

Happiness

There's nothing better than realizing you're still at work 30 minutes after you have to be, but you didn't notice because you enjoy your job/coworkers so much, then feeling like you can't get home fast enough to see your perfect and loving boyfriend and puppy. Plus, the weather forecast shows highs in the 70s later this week. FINALLY it's starting to cool off! Life is good.

Style Crush: Nicole Richie

From her flowy maxi dresses, floppy hats and cat eye sunglasses to her ever-changing hair color, Nicole Richie's style is one of my all time favorites. MAJOR style crush alert! Her first look here is my favorite (as previously mentioned in my OB-Sessions: Sparkle post), but I want all of her clothes. They might have to be let out a little but I think I could make them work...
