Baby Shower and a Diaper Cake

Hi ladies…I hope that you all enjoyed your weekend.  I enjoyed mine….I got back into town early this afternoon after a last minute trip to Washington, DC.   My sister and I decided to surprise my cousin and attend her very first baby shower.  My cousin couldn’t ask for a better day, the weather was perfect, the food was delicious, and she was surrounded by family and friends.  So, my title of the post is a little weird right?  I wanted to post a picture of the diaper cake that my sister and I made for my cousin (also a last minute decision).  This was our first cake that we made and I plan on making more of these in the future.  I don’t know why I hadn’t made a diaper cake before….it was relatively easy to create and it’s a practical gift.  My cousin loved it and had a blast at the shower.   I’ve included pictures of what my sister and I wore to the shower.  Some how we managed to both wear an Anthropologie top to the party.   

Anthurium Blouse - $19.99…was $88.00

Nexus Top – (not sure how much she paid)…was $68.00

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Fresh Picks to Follow: Scarves

I’m a little late in posting my Friday Fresh Picks, but I went out of town unexpectedly and had little access to my computer.  So, even though it’s late Sunday evening, we’ll just have to pretend it’s Friday for the sake of my post.  My Fresh Picks to Follow this week are scarves.  I think that a scarf is a wonderful way to accessorize an outfit or to keep you warm when there is a little chill in the air! And, although I live in Florida, I have a pretty large collection of lightweight scarves. You can dress up a plain t-shirt with a fun colorful scarf or create a new look with a plain scarf that adds a pop of color.  Here are my top 10 picks of beautiful scarves for fall season.  Let me know what scarves you plan to wear this year!
