Happy Friday everyone! It’s kind of chilly here today, but the flowers are blooming and spring is in effect.  For those of you who are planning on doing a little spring shopping this weekend, I thought I’d share some fringe accessories that have recently caught my eye.  There’s something so FUN about them to me and they scream Springtime  What do you think?  Are you into FRINGE?

Fall is here and the colors outside are just beautiful, aren’t they?  All of the oranges and reds and yellows are just so pretty.  When decorating for the fall, I don’t make big changes to my decor.  I may make a subtle change here and there, pull out a few more throw blankets, and some cozy pillows, but I don’t really go into full “fall mode” in the traditional sense.  I enjoy creating a space that feels the way I want it to feel, regardless of the season.  My sister once joked with me that as soon as she came in my condo it was no longer winter lol because I had my room filled with bright turquoise and other colors of the caribbean.  I think that any color can be used to inspire fall decor, it’s all about how you want to feel.  Here’s a little happy-chic fall dining inspiration, drawn from the some of the changing leaves outside
