When we first looked at buying our current house, one of the biggest concerns was updating the kitchen…especially on a budget. It was a hot mess of modern and outdated, but as they say–location, location, location! Our quaint, 1960 abode is right in the hub of Tennessee’s Oldest Town, and it is the perfect starter home for our family of two (plus Oakley *wink*). So, we started planning how we could best update our kitchen without breaking the bank or totally ruining its midcentury charm.

Hi there! Yikes…. It’s been a little while since I have been on the blog, but if you’ve been keeping up on Instagram, then you know the past few months have been a bit of a whirlwind. While 2020 was chaotic all by itself, the last few months took quite the toll on Skyler and me. For one, we totally tore up our backyard… *cringe*

I will continue blogging about all things fashion and vintage, but I will also be adding posts about easy home projects, decor ideas, landscaping, and more! But before I kick start new content, I want to give you all a little life update + share some sweet pictures from the last few months!

Sit down–let’s have a drink and a moment to talk. As we all know, 2020 has been a rough year so far. We’ve seen the Australian bushfires, a global pandemic, a stock market crash, lockdowns and stay-at-home orders, the tragic death of Kobe Bryant (his daughter, and others on the helicopter), the death of an innocent man by a corrupt cop, the George Floyd protests and riots, social unrest, attacks on communities and cultures…..and it’s only June. Freaking June, y’all. *Note–I’m sure I left out a few things–but it’s just too much to keep up with these days.
