this past weekend we went to my mom’s house for an oscar awards party night. we always dress in our nicest sweats while we poke fun at some of the actors and actresses outfits and “ooh and ah!” at others {a bit hypocritical of us i know}. every year we have the most delicious treats that my mom has made, usually consisting of: chocolate fondu, chips with home-made salsa, bread with spinach artichoke dip, bubbly water with freshly cut limes, and specialty meats and cheeses. we ate until our tummies were about to pop, kramer almost couldn’t stand not being able to just devour it all himself {poor little guy}. it was a very fun delicious evening and i can hardly wait until the next academy awards. how were your nights at the oscars?

are you super?

have you heard about super products? i hadn’t until a couple days ago when i read a review on the bleubird blog. i have been looking for a couple of products to clean my face in the morning because my current nightly routine seems to be a bit drying when using it twice a day. i decided to give it a try and chose a couple of products that sounded good for my skin type.  
the super products i ordered came today and i was immediately sold. they come in the sweetest little glass bottles and the labels are so lovely. i have only used them once so far, but like how they made my skin feel. they weren’t to drying and smelled nice, without being overpowering {i hate when i feel like i’m putting perfume on my face}. as i use them more i will let you know how they continue to work but so far would definitely recommend them!

have a super weekend!

mid-century modern

i have been totally crushing over this mid-century-modern style lately. i think what i love most is the simplicity of the style, but also really love pieces with a vintage flare. i love the chair in the first photo and found a similar one here. what styles have you been liking lately?

on valentines we got a new coffee table and foot stool from a second hand store called elemente’ and are very much mid-century-modern {i will show pictures once we pick up the coffee table}, for under 200$. don’t you just love second hand stores? they are the best for finding the coolest pieces. cam and i will be going back in the future for more furniture purchases {even if he doesn’t know it yet}.
hope your thursday is filled with some design inspiration!
