Wouldn't mind a nice place to live

My current living situation isn't ideal, but I realized I don't mind. I pretty much live in my car and am at work, my second job, or working out mostly anyways.

Still, I love browsing. Who doesn't?

Dream house. Perfect size too.

Oh How Pinteresting: Fall & cozy

I haven't done a Pinteresting Wednesday in a long time so this will be a "doozy."

Tonight's dinner, and because I'm a creature of habit, I'll be eating this for a few days probably.

Its been awhile since I've painted my nails. They're brittle so I've cut them super short.

Pinteresting Wednesday: Late summer fashion & perfect bedrooms

Usually there's food, but I went with fashion this week. One day I will get out of pajamas and workout clothes, but I'm such a low maintenance person especially since all I do is workout or work or sleep.

Love the orange blazer! I don't love everything but it all looks nice together. My biggest problem is imagining pieces together - I like buying pieces I love individually but never match!

I love the details in this dress. I've never worn a one shoulder dress before.

Aww.

I'm not a big fan of jewelry - I don't wear any - but this combo comes together really well.

I wouldn't mind if this piece didn't work anymore, it's still gorgeous.

Real home: bedroom ideas

We're looking to get a house within the next year and I'm getting excited about all the possibilities. Okay, I won't live in one of my dream homes, but I can make it my dream home. Instead of rushing it and wasting money, I really want to plan step by step. Some of my favorite homes are typical - Making It Lovely and Young House Love's current home.

I decided to start with my bedroom and a few of my favorites from Pinterest and other blogs.

Okay, this looks like a dorm, but I like the color on the ceiling and the coziness of this room.

I love this color on walls!

Theme/color scheme

Thankfully the bedroom is simple.

Something about her is so beautiful. She's not but doesn't she appear voluptuous like Christina Hendricks?

Best kitchen ever! Really. I love the beams, the counter tops, and the colors.
