PRECIOUS PIGGY – Once, on a family vacation to Hilton Head as a small toddler, I would NOT stop crying and crying until the moment I locked my eyes on a plump pig. I’ve loved them ever since.

FASHION - Designer Steals from Marshalls

This weekend, I made my first-ever trip to Marshalls to search for some colorful designer fashions at discounted prices. After my successful excursion, I am an enthusiastic fan of their “never pay full price for fabulous” mantra. As a young, married couple on a budget (who isn’t?), Marshalls is a great solution to maintain stylish, on-trend wardrobes without exceeding our means. Check out our half-priced finds!

MERRIMENT MOMENTS: Urbanwalls Giveaway!

To be entirely honest, I have never been a fan of wall decals, finding them cheap looking, distasteful, and at best, amusingly cheesy. That’s why I was shocked when I discovered Urbanwalls and fell completely in love with Danielle Hardy's stylish collection of wall decals, chalk decals, and prints.

On-trend, playful yet pretty, and even inspirational, Urbanwalls’ products will add that special touch to liven up your blah spaces. The decals are perfect for nurseries, kids’ rooms, family rooms, and more! I also love the chalk decals and prints for kitchens or personal workspaces.
