Window Treatments For Wide Sliding Glass Doors
October 15, 2022Hoping to help some of you in the same design dilemma we were in! The house we are renting, which was new construction, had 216″ wide sliding glass porch doors.

Owned by an out of state investor, the home owner gave me a $3,000 budget to install window treatments throughout the house. With custom window treatments EASILY costing 10’s of thousands…

As we step into some cooler fall weather, I thought now would be a good time to share my fall capsule wardrobe for work! Since I work from home, I tend to dress in more casual outfits similar to the ones I shared in my recent Fall Capsule Wardrobe post but I got a few requests for a dressier capsule wardrobe, particularly for work. To save you time and the hassle of finding something to wear to work I tried…

As a former Connecticut gal, I would say I am an expert in fall (and winter) clothing. Especially layering pieces. I know it can be hard to shop this time of year as we transition into cooler weather, so I love finding pieces that are versatile and layer well. Many think since we’re now in Florida we no longer have cooler weather but we most definitely do! I am sharing some pieces I grabbed from Saks OFF 5TH that I…
Not our first short term rental If you’re new here, this STR is not our first. We’ve have owned several (a few we have flipped) and love the process of making short term rentals feel like home! Especially along 30A, Florida, where the sugar sand beaches, emerald water and high vibes are irresistible. We loved it so much we decided to live here full time! Our latest short term rental upgrade Prominence of 30a is a unique beach community along…
We had our family photos taken professionally last year. You can see the post here. The main rule of thumb I follow when picking out outfits for family photos is to choose classic pieces that never go out of style. I also always say to plan the outfit around what mom is wearing 😜👸. I recommend sticking to 4 or less colors. SHOP MOM & DAD’S OUTFIT: SHOP TEEN GIRL & BOY’S OUTFIT: SHOP GIRL AND BOY’S OUTFIT: SHOP MOM…
I can’t get over the Scoop and Free Assembly line at Walmart and couldn’t wait to find a reason to put some outfits together. A common question in my DM’s is if I really love Walmart’s clothing or if I only share because of my partnerships. The answer is YES! This organic love note is because I truly think these brands have done it this time! The quality of these pieces compare to some of my favorite name brands. Marissa…
