Stylish Grown-up Backpacks

As a commuter, I know how it feels to lug multiple bags back and forth to work everyday. Although the most practical solution, I've always shied away from backpacks because of my fear of looking like a little kid waiting for the school bus. After doing a little research, I've found that there are many options out there for stylish backpacks that are suitable for grown-ups. Add a pop of color, pattern, or metallic shine to your daily look or keep it simple with an all leather option.

Boots for Spring Showers

Today's rainy Spring day in New York got me thinking about how badly I need a great pair of rain boots. With so many stylish options out there these days, it's not hard to find the perfect pair. Choose wedges or heels for height, straps or laces for a biker-boot look, or simple waterproof ballet flats for a more girly feel. Invest in a pair that is made well and they should last for many seasons and a ton of rainy days to come. Don't let a few rain drops get in the way of good style!

The Wedding Cupcake

Right now I'm loving wedding cupcakes. I know, I know, you're thinking "Cupcakes for a wedding? Eh... I'm not so sure". Well don't worry, because I'm sure, and soon enough you will be too. Of course, wedding cakes are classic and lovely, but sometimes wedding cupcakes can be just as beautiful.

The icing on these particular cupcakes can imitate your chosen centerpiece or bouquet flowers, which will tie everything together perfectly. Use multiple colors on each cupcake, or stick with just one. Either way, it will create a breathtaking cupcake display. And... who doesn't love cupcakes? I sure do. Yum!

Mason Jar Decorating

Who knew that mason jars could be so great for decorating? I do now!

Create a mason jar vase and fill it with flowers for a beautiful yet casual arrangement. Whether it's the focal point of your kitchen counter or the centerpieces for a laid-back outdoor wedding, I promise they'll be perfect.

Add a little mason-jar-beach to your life (my personal fave). Fill a mason jar with sand or sea glass and top it off with a tea light - and "voila" instant beachy home decor. Line them up on your mantel or use them as accents for a party. Don't love the beachy feel as much as I do? Create reusable drink glasses that have a vintage-country feel. Or fill 'em up with branches, pebbles, or acorns for a natural look.
