Opposites Attract

I'm not a morning person, he is. He was brought up with a routine, I was brought up rushing out the door and getting everything done last minute. Last, he's always hot I'm always freezing- despite our total opposite preferences in life we are absolutely perfect for one another. Problem is how does the perfect couple, with completely different takes on how a day should be ran find that balance? A routine that works for the procrastinator and the man with an everyday plan.

Writing this I can't help but feel a little Carrie Bradshaw coming out of me. But it's the little things in a relationship that need attention and some action to find find the balance of his and hers lifestyle.

Thoughts?

Dog Beds in Progress

Afternoon birdees 

Last week I posted my project of the month- doggie beds for my two girls Lia & Baby.  Since then I have salvaged old pillows and stuffing around the house, found fabrics in my many boxes of fabric (which my boy friend thinks I hoard) and have begun construction!  
Lila's bed is almost complete and I hope to have them both complete by tonight or Friday by the latest.  So next time I post the finished projects shall be revealed :) 

HAPPY HUMP DAY

Project of the month

2014 I set my bar a bit high. So this year I'm coming down to goal by setting smaller more reasonable goals that I can actually achieve; with work, two dogs and a boyfriend (which feels a lot like being a single mother of 3 at times). A project a month- I CAN do that...and maybe even a little bit extra! 

One accomplishment a month is a lot better than a long list of to dos that never gets done.

        This month DOGGIE BED <3

First step: finding the right fabric....

The End Result

  Last week I posted a picture of one of Ashley Olsen's gorgeous hair cuts, and two nights ago I pulled out the scissors.  

After one too many bad hair cuts and too much money spent at local salons I took the scissors into my own hands.  So no matter what I always end up with a hair cut I can be happy with; and no body is perfect so the next day after I shower I always go back to the mirror with a comb just to make sure I didn't leave and stragglers or one side longer than the other.  

 What started out as a trim gradually turned into a balancing act, trying to even the length out... about four inches later with some long layers, I finally got the right cut. I cut, then I conditioned (thermal leave-in conditioner), used a perfect curl iron, and finally slept on it to achieve those effortless loose curl that makes Victoria Secret models look like Angels ;)

My 2015 Trending

#1 Living in Style- by Rachel Zoe

*This was at the top of my Christmas wish list and Santa did good this year! I can't wait to dive in a use the one and only Rachel Zoe's style, design and inspiration to fuel my on going transformation to becoming the woman I want to be

#2 A fresh new do.... I love my long hair but gorgeous locks and dull mermaid length isn't really worth keeping around. New year, new career means one thing HAIR CUT; and Ofcourse its Olsen inspired. I do all my haircuts by myself (perhaps from too many bad hair cuts, I know you've all been there) so keep your eye out for my before and after transformation -maybe add some styling tips too for all you DIY birdees out there
