Rick and I have dated for a few years, and we’ve had our fair share of date nights, but sometimes it’s just fun to get a little more dressed up than usual for a night out. Snaps for Rick making his debut on ABA, he was such a good sport and looked rather sharp for the camera, no?

A new found obsession is local Houston street art. This ‘Love You’ mural in Midtown near Downtown Houston and is such a great place to snap photos. I’ve recently discovered vintage shopping, thanks to my blogger pal Valerie of Adorn Yourself Accordingly, and couldn’t be more obsessed. This beaded bolero jacket accompanied me on my recent trip to NYC. Another local Houston shop I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know better is Emerson Rose in the Heights. Such a cute little stop for all things baubles, clothing and giftables, at budget-friendly prices – this Tulle skirt was less than $50!

I’m still in the process of thawing out from a long-weekend in NYC, stay tuned for posts to come!
