Chambray & Grey

I have been searching for the "perfect" chambray shirt for a long time now, and I can finally say that I have found one :)   After reading Veronika's Post,  I decided to purchase this one from Forever21.com.  I went with my normal size small.  I feel like it is absolutely perfect.  Here's how I styled it today:






I also bought a few skirts from Forever21 too, because I felt like I needed to add more into my wardrobe for summer!!

Help Me Find Barstools!!

We are all moved into our house now and have started making a list of things we still need to get/do....that list is never-ending! Haha!  But one of my bigger priorities is to find some barstools for our kitchen bar.  So, apparently we didn't understand, when building, that finding barstools at the "extra tall" height were going to be so difficult.  I have been on the search for the perfect ones since we moved in!!  I found them at Target!



















                Buy these at Target

...but, they are WAY too short. Sad face :(   I showed them to Hubby and he liked them...but thinks that with them being fabric, they will be hard to keep clean.  So, now I am back to looking.  I'm thinking we need to get either vinyl or leather.  Also, I would like them to be dark grey and the seat height can be no shorter than 34".  Can you guys help me?!?

I tried this new recipe after pinning it on Pinterest.  I pin a lot of recipes, so I can look back and try them :)  It would probably take me years to get through all of the recipes I've pinned so far! Haha!
