Hey friends! Thanks so much for all the great comments on the How to Style Coffee Tables post. There were lots of questions, but I think I answered most of them in the comments section…so check back there. (So many of you are the dreaded ‘no-reply,’ so I wasn’t able to respond to you via email. You can learn how to fix that here, btw.) I had so much fun with the post, I might make a series of styling different areas. I’m thinking side tables, mantels, shelves, entrance halls, long coffee tables….feel free to leave a comment with areas you’d like to see highlighted.
Today I turned the camera on myself…or rather, my 12-year old son turned the camera on me. Did you know he’s my fashion photographer? Hence why I didn’t realize this dress practically disappeared into background until I uploaded the pictures. It’s still a fun outfit, and I love the unexpected color pairing, so I’m sharing anyway.
I’m cuckoo for this striped dress. When the adorable Caycee posted it at the beginning of the Summer, I bought it immediately. It’s proof that you can find gems at Forever 21. (Read my tips for shopping that store here.)

I love how the touches of orange really pop off the green, and make the outfit fun.
