I can’t remember if I’ve mentioned it or not, but I ended up going with mixed metals in our new kitchen. I went back and forth, but I finally decided that I really liked the look and character it brought to the room by mixing the brass and the chrome together. That being said, now I can’t decide what kind of counter stools to use. I really want some with a touch of brass, but the only one’s that I’ve found that I like are almost $500 apiece here and here !?!? So, if any of y’all come across any please let me know! And here are a few kitchens with mixed metals that I absolutely love, and that I used as inspiration.

A few of you sent me messages on Instastories (which I love so much btw) asking me what I use on my eyelashes, so I thought I would share it here as well. For my everyday look, I usually use the Dior primer along with the Chubby lash mascara. For my nighttime look, I add the 3D fiber lashes by Mia Adora. This stuff is amazing, and it gives the most realistic long lashes ever. It comes with wet mascara (step 1) and the dry micro fibers (step 2), but I prefer to use my primer and mascara mentioned above with the micro fibers.

 The weather around here is finally cooling off a little so we took full advantage this past Sunday and rode our bikes along the greenway. The views are so gorgeous on this trail that we ended up riding almost two miles without even realizing it.

Last night, I headed out for dinner with two of my favorite girls, Natalie and Krystine. Our first stop was Harold’s Cabin. It was super cute inside, and while the food was good, the portions were not very big. So we decided to head over to Zero George for a few more appetizers and one last cocktail. The bartender there was hilarious and he had all three of laughing so hard we were in tears.

And last, Loft is having a sale right now where you can save 30% off of your entire purchase with the code SHOPSMART. While we were in Columbia last weekend for my niece and nephew’s birthday, I was able to sneak in a little shopping and these were two my favorites from the Loft.
