It doesn’t take long (when getting to know me), to figure out that I am quite the creature of habit. I know what I like. and I like what I like. (hey, if it ain’t broke – don’t fix it. Right?!) I typically get the same thing every time at my favorite restaurants because…well, I know I’ll like it. Plus, I usually end up craving it before I can even…
So I’m a little past due here, but I just wanted to say thank you ALL so much for all your support!! You all mean the WORLD to me and I couldn’t be more thankful for each and every one of you! These photos below are from my VERY first outfit post!! I want to give a special thanks to sweet Caroline Thompson for giving me the confidence and little…
Lately, I’ve been having WAY too much fun on my new computer. I love having more screen space to work on photoshop and illustrator. I was a little hesitant to get a desktop, but after a few days of playing around on it, I am SO happy I went ahead and went for it! I got a few new fonts (for myself…from myself) for Christmas and have LOVED playing miss…
“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 As we get older, our lives become more complicated. Our innocence and naiveté slowly wither away as we take on the responsibilities, pressures, and problems of the world around us. And although this transformation is inevitable, we shouldn’t lose sight of the pure and sweet joy that comes from a…
I’ll bet my bottom dollar that the title of this post made you sing that song in your head! It’s a good one, though, right?! What’s your favorite christmas song or album?! This time of year starts to get REAL on Christmas eve’s eve, as there’s only a little bit more time before the 25th arrives. What are some of your family’s Christmas traditions? I’d love to hear! Personally, I…
I found this new website ‘strikingtruths.com’, that is almost too good to tell everyone about. Because, selfishly, I want to keep it hidden and novel and protect it from the “Pinterest effect”. (which is where great work is often cheapened because we see so much at once, if that makes sense). Anyway, I love these quotes and each and every one made me think. I like how they aren’t necessarily the traditional…
Sounds strange at first. But think about it. The more you get to know someone or something, the more you see what makes that person or thing a part of this world. In other words, you start seeing more of the whole being or existence, rather than just a part. And thus, you become aware of flaws and imperfections. To put it simply, the closer you get, the less glamorous it…
My mom has been saying this for as long as I can remember. Anytime I doubt myself or am negative in some way, its safe to say that mom will soon respond with none other than (one of her famous lines), “well, what you think about, you bring about.” In other words, she’s not going to entertain my pity party! (which is a good thing.) I hate to admit this,…
We’ve actually changed things up a bit (actually, A LOT) since I took these pictures, but I figured I’d still post a little peek at our coffee table. All three of us LOVE coffee table books and we have acquired quite the collection. The gilded rosary is by a local Baton Rouge artist and the candle sticks are from Zgallerie for those of you who were wondering! Thank you to…
One of my favorite gifts to receive from my parents on Christmas Eve is PJ’s. And for the last few years, all four girls in my family have received matching (monogrammed) sleep shirts, rather than the standard pants and top set. I absolutely love them! If you’re looking for some good gift ideas for this Christmas, I think this is a perfect option for girls of pretty much any age!…
Skirt: bySMITH // Shirt: Gap scoop neck tee // Necklace: Stella + Dot // Shoes: Dee Keller // Bracelets: Stella + Dot // Ring: Kendra Scott pink agate This here is probably one of my favorite looks I’ve worn in a while. Why? Because I LOVE wearing tee-shirts – especially long-sleeved ones that are super comfy. I’m actually not even sure where this particular one is from (to be honest) because…
Good morning! Sorry to disappoint those were expecting to a new brightonsherday post today, but I haven’t had the time to put one together this week. My “excuse” is the fact that my LAST (praise the Lord!) CPA exam is this coming Monday. But I’ll be honest and say that I could have gotten it done, BUT I wasted a lot of time searching the interwebs for the perfect upholstery…
It literally JUST got (kind of) cool down here in New Orleans this past weekend! But up until this little cold front, I’ve been proudly sporting the remnants of my summer and spring wardrobe. Because it really doesn’t make sense to put those things away until the end of October. But now I’m so excited to be able to wear my boots and warm sweaters! I wore this little ensemble…
I bet you have no idea what I’m talking about. Right? Sorry to disappoint, but when I say “it’s that time again,” I am referring to the fact that today is the day of my third CPA exam, which happens to be Audit & Attestation (zZzZZZzzZ!!). I don’t usually procrastinate, but I must say that I most definitely waited until the very last minute to “get serious” with the content…
The More You Love Your Decisions The Less You Need Others to Love Them. I’ve been trying to write something meaningful about this quote for 20 minutes now. And I keep typing things and then frantically backspacing/deleting it because I decide I want to go in “another direction.” There are just SO many things I could say about it. So instead of talking your ear off (or rather, wearing out…
I should print this out. 100 times. and hide a copy anywhere and everywhere I can think of because I constantly need reminding. For some reason, no matter how hard I try, I just can’t do it. Maybe I’ll be “good” for a week or so, but it’s just not in my DNA or something. Like, for lack of better words, I’m not wired to be balanced. And this is…
You all know I love writing this blog, right? I love to update it as often as possible (it’s more exciting that way!) and it really is nice to have a creative outlet. I could go on and on about how much I love it, but at the end of the day, aside from helping to promote my mom’s business, I write this blog for you guys. My hopes are…
= a recipe for excitement and frustration all in one! haha. I have been non-stop coding and trouble-shooting in preparation of launching the deekeller.com website today. at noon. uh oh….it’s almost 1! I ran into a little issue this morning that stopped me in my tracks. Hence the late post. Hence the delay of the launch. whoopsies! But no need to worry; I’m working super hard to get it all sorted…
