Master Bedroom Inspiration

If you guys follow me on Instagram, I have mentioned a couple of times that we are painting our interior of our home right now. We bought our home about 3 years ago & at the time we painted it a darker tan color. It goes with all of the lodge-y woodwork in it, but made the house seem pretty dark overall. It was definitely time for a change! We also have put off finishing our master bedroom for so long, just because we are the only ones that see it, so it didn't really seem like a priority. Your master bedroom is such an important part of your house and for me, my overall calmness. When you wake up in a clean, bright room, it really sets the tone for the rest of the day! I love white bedding in bedrooms it just feels so airy and timeless (makes me feel like I am waking up in my favorite hotel room on vacation!). We aren't totally done (lighting & wall decor is next), but I wanted to share the progress and some reasonable priced bedroom furniture & decor. Also, why are King beds soooo much more expensive than queens!? We had such a hard time finding a really nice bed within our budget, but we finally found one we absolutely love and agreed on. We found ours at Walker's Furniture, but I linked some similar ones below! I hope you guys enjoyed this post :)

Classic & Affordable Designer Handbags

Hey guys! I thought I would share with you one of my favorite ways to dress up any outfit. I, like probably every other girl out there, LOVE designer handbags. I love the idea of a classic, well-made leather bag that you can wear with any outfit and make it look that much more expensive and put together! However, I don't think I can justify purchasing a $1000 + handbag (not saying that there is anything wrong with that, I just think about all of the other stuff I personally could do for $1000!). Plus, it would totally blow the thrill of bargain shopping :) I usually will treat myself to one "designer" handbag a year...But when I say designer I am talking Kate Spade, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, Rebecca Minkoff or Vince Camuto. Some of those bags can still be $300 or so, which still is a little steep for that kind of purse in my opinion. So, I decided to include 30+ "designer" handbags for under $170. These are all really good quality, will last you a long time, are in neutral colors so that you can wear them with any outfit, and are all classic styles. One of the things I look for when buying handbags is a cross body strap, just because I find it the most comfortable with my lifestyle. Choose a hardware color that matches your wardrobe (I like to personally have one purse with gold hardware and one with silver). I also love using inspiration from my favorite high-end designer bags. The one I recently got  has a really similar shape to the Givenchy Antigona bag and I listed a bunch of them that are inspired by Chloe, Gucci & Celine bags. I hope you guys found this helpful and that there is something for everyone :) Also, these would make great gifts for Christmas or birthday's so make sure you come back! If you are someone that likes going in person to shop, my favorite places to find affordable designer handbags are: Nordstrom (always check on their sales!), Nordstrom Rack, TJ Maxx, Macy's and Marshall's.
