Mansfield Dam Park- Austin, TX

This past weekend my parents came down from Dallas to visit and we took a little trip out to the Mansfield Dam Park on Lake Travis. It was so pretty, but it is CRAZY how low the lake is! We looked it up and supposedly the water level is down 50-60 feet to what it’s supposed to be! You can see by looking at the dam and the rocks around the lake where the water should be. I’ll definitely be thinking about it all next time I take a super long shower or water my lawn! Even with the low water level, Lake Travis is still a beautiful sight:) We also went to the brewery at The Oasis which I talked about a little yesterday. I can’t wait to go back once its a little nicer outside this spring/summer! Did you guys do anything fun this weekend?

PS: Come check out some of my new listings on the Etsy shop! We have some adorable new things!

Nautical Inspiration

Hi Lovelies!

This last week has been SO busy for Wes and I, but it has been totally worth it! We are officially homeowners and have moved most of our stuff into our new house! I have been going crazy trying to get everything unpacked and in place, hence why I didn’t have a post prepared for yesterday:) I do have a great outfit for you today though! This one is nautically inspired, which is really the best when it’s 80 and sunny outside like it has been here in Austin. This Target skirt is one of my favorites, because I can pair pretty much any color with the navy and it looks adorable. It’s super comfortable too. I bought it last year, but they always seem to have the same skirt in different patterns and such every year.

These tanks from Target are my ABSOLUTE favorites! I just so happened to be strolling through Target the other day and notice that they were on sale for $6. Obviously I grabbed one in every color and have been wearing them constantly since. They are so soft and comfortable, and I love that they look fine all by themselves without looking cheap. They aren’t $6 anymore, but according to Target.com, if you buy 2 you save 10%, and if you buy 3 you save 20%. Enjoy!

I Love You So Much: Austin in Stripes

Hi Lovelies!

I figured the ‘I love you so much’ sign from Jo’s Coffee on South Congress was fitting since it is Valentine’s week:) Well, Wes and I felt like tourists in our own city this past weekend. We rented bikes from the new city ‘b cycle’ program they just launched and rode all across the city. We had lunch at the Whole Foods head quarters, rode around South Congress and got some coffee, and then ended at the Auditorium Shores park watching people play with their dogs and taking in the sunshine and fresh air. <sigh> I wish that nice weather has stayed with us!

I have had a major color crush on mint and red lately. I realllllly want this bow I found on Etsy, and I am pretty sure that is where the obsession has come from. The nautical feel to this outfit made me long for summer even more so than I have been…..please, Mother nature?! I am so ready for 70 degree weather to be a daily occurrence:)

What’s your latest color crush?

Fur and Plaid

Hi Lovelies!

I have such mixed feelings right now. I am so happy that I am still able to wear this fur vest, because I haven’t worn it very much yet. At the same time, I am so unhappy that I am able to wear this fur vest, because that means that it’s cold outside. I know, I know….I’m pretty sure I am beating a dead horse over here with the weather talk, but I am so over the cold. 45 degrees and Megan do not mix.

This outfit came together in this post a while back, and I finally put it together this week:) It makes me happy to pair something that usually has a masculine connotation like a plaid shirt, with something as feminine as fur. I am really loving the huge collar on this vest too, it’s awesome for those cold windy days we have been having.

What unexpected pairs have you been styling in your closet lately?

I Don’t Know What Day It Is…..

I almost named this post “My Weekend In Instagram”. Then I realized that it isn’t Monday, it is Friday. Not that I’m complaining…I would much rather it FEEL like Monday than actually BE Monday. Holidays screw me up. Anyway, I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July! Wes and I had a great (hot) time hiking in the greenbelt and exercising our all American right to eat out for every meal! haha! Here is a little sneak peak of what we did yesterday:
