Weekend Travels: Dallas 7.19.13


Happy Tuesday! Two weeks ago I headed to Dallas, TX for an ASID Officer Leadership Training for the weekend. For those of you who do not know what ASID is, it stands for American Society of Interior Designers. Now, I know many people think interior design is just decorating, color coordinating, and just having fluff everywhere but being an interior designer is much more than that. Interior design is helping others, empowering others, creating a space for people to live and function in. To give people a way to escape into a beach getaway when really they are stuck in the city. Interior designers have this power and I am reminded about this every time I reunite with all my ASID friends and colleagues. I can't wait to see them again at Metrocon this August in Dallas! If you are in ASID or are headed to Metrocon in a few weeks I hope to see you there!

I always go to In-N-Out when I go to Dallas just because we do not have one in San Antonio. So sad. 

Finally got the Jcrew bow flats! Even though they are from last summer I still am excited to have them in my possession finally:)

The lighting behind this mirror is fabulous and give the vanity a glowing effect at ASID Dallas headquarters.

Great group of  ladies that I met at this leadership training. Can't wait to meet up with them again!

Currently: Re-Decorating


Hey everyone! I am currently re-decorating my new apartment, so I will be away from blogging for this week, and this is also the reason I was away from blogging last week. I wish I could have a whole day to get this done but it is definitely harder than I imagined. Especially when you always are missing something or think in your mind, I could add this and I need this to make this look better.  I am currently looking for ideas on how to set up all my stuff in this new apartment with the little space that I have, I'll definitely be looking at Martha's site for some tips and tricks. If you guys have any suggestions please send them my way. For now I will be looking at Pinterest and GlitterGuide for home decor ideas!

Florida Vacation 2013


Hello + good morning! So two weekends ago my boyfriend, brother, and I took a journey to Florida to visit Disney World and Universal Studios. This was a very exciting trip for us because it was the first time we have ever been outside of Texas and our first time to Disney World + Universal. I know I am older know and shouldn't have been that excited for the Magic Kingdom but I have to say I was probably the happiest adult there! I was just so excited to finally be at Disney after this many centuries, yes I know I am over exaggerating haha.
I also got to visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. If you are a Harry Potter fan like me you can understand how amazing it is to be there. You actually feel like you are there in Hogwarts and wish that you could conjure some magic but then you realize you look kind of ridiculous waving a wand around in a crowd of people.
It was one of the happiest moments in my life and I am happy to have shared this with my boyfriend and my brother, my familia:)
