    palm springs pt 1

    two years after going to the exact same hotels, we went back and did the same trip.

    here is me and my boy, two years ago.

    and here is us now.

    we took the same photo. what dorks.

    there was a ton of sunlight.

    a ton of things i wanted to steal.

    a ton of ping pong.

    a ton of admiring the parker. it’s so so so so good looking.

    and mostly, a ton of cards at the pool and fish tacos.

    i love palm springs.

    THE STUFF

    one : this laquer wine rack from west elm looks super clean and modern and holds just enough bottles / two : heavily craving some nemadji pottery like this vase from 86home / three : i love the lines and leather on this magazine rack from clayton gray / four : planning on getting this adorable celestial nightlight for the litterbox (the kitties are afraid of the dark. yes. i’m serious.) / five : most likely, i’d wear this open front southwestern cardigan from forever 21 every day / six : obsessed with this converge brass votives by dwell from clayton gray. they are just too attractive.

    plans for the new year

    i’m just now getting back into the swing of things after leaving town and the holidays. now it’s time to keep my resolutions.

    THE PLAN

    be stricter with myself about tasks and the blog
    be less irritable
    stop being lazy
    stop being flakey
    spend less money on bs
    pay bills on time (off to a bad start)
    eat less junk
    be clean
    be organized
    be fucking pleasant

    THE STUFF

    stay organized: kate spade tudor city debra planner / this stuff does wonders overnight on a zit, but i’m always meaning to take 10 mins to do a mask. i never do. ever. take care of skin: kiehl’s deep pore cleansing mask / i wear nude flats like a cartoon character is always in the same thing. need to start getting a new pair sooner and letting go of a pair when they’re clearly not ok to wear anymore. these are cute and super cheap. breckelle’s casual flats / send thank you cards. thank people. be sweet. twine thank you cards from minted / i am going to buy a plant this year and i am going to water the damn thing, and it is going to live. this is the year. home depot ficus bush / i am going to challenge myself more with cooking. the family meal cookbook / i am going to only hang art that is special to us. vogue july 1948 print from art.com / i am going to smell good. stella eau de parfum

#autumnlover #autumn #autumnvibes🍁 #autumninnewengland
i know it’s early but it feels soooo good to be i know it’s early but it feels soooo good to be done with one less holiday task! we got our holiday cards from @minted and they make so many beautiful designs, i didn’t even feel the need to have nice photos taken! they have incredible quality, ship so quickly, and come with FREE recipient addressed envelopes! 

i usually love to handwrite my holiday cards but i just do not have the energy this year, i used the @minted app to scan all the addresses i’ve kept in a notebook for years, and now I WILL NEVER HAVE TO DO IT AGAIN! they’re just in my address book so i can do it year after year!

if you want the link for this design and a bunch of other favorites, comment HOLIDAY and i’ll send em straight to your dms! 

and you can use code ALMOSTMAKESPERFECT for 20% off Minted stationery & gifts!*
*exclusions apply. valid through 12/31

i am so so happy with how it turned out, we spend most of our time in the backyard but to be able to sit here and wave off arlo every morning (while the actual school bus picks him up directly from our driveway because we live in a small town like a hallmark movie) brings me real joy!
