Cinco de Mayo Themed Baby Shower
Happy Monday everyone, I hope you all had a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend celebrating all of the amazing moms in your lives! I just wanted to pop on here to remind you that today is the last day to save 30% OFF at World Market for their Friends & Family Sale! Just use code: FRIENDS19
Scroll through this post to see how I styled all of my World Market home decor and outdoor furniture for a Cinco de Mayo themed baby shower we hosted last weekend! We hosted the co-ed shower on actual cinco de mayo, but I think a fiesta themed shower is appropriate for any time of year so be sure to bookmark some of these ideas!

MY FLORAL DIY CHAIR:
To create this adorable picturesque chair, I used my Natural Rattan Fallon Cocoon Chair with Cushion that I purchased from World Market last year and wrapped it greenery and flowers from Hobby Lobby. You may remember this chair from the first baby shower I hosted in April. All we did to change it up was purchase more colorful flowers from Hobby Lobby and use green floral tape and wire to attach the flowers. It’s such a fun way to incorporate more color into your decor. Plus you can always reuse it and change up the color schemes.

How To Create An Outdoor Drink Station
Happy Friday friends! Today starts the World Market Friends & Family Sale so I thought I would share how I recently transformed their wooden potting bench into an outdoor drink station for my Mother’s Day brunch with MacKenzie-Childs. If you missed yesterday’s post about the brunch, you can see all of the details here—> Backyard Brunch for Mother’s Day

The margaritas & mimosas sign is from Etsy.

How adorable are these MacKenzie-Childs Flower Market Galvanized Herb Pots with the matching tray? I moved them inside and put them on my window sill above the kitchen sink and looks so cute there for the spring and summer. I like to fill them with water and fresh flowers as opposed to actually planting anything any side of them.

How fun are these colorful boho style pillows against my black and white cushions. I actually bought this black and white fabric on sale at Hobby Lobby and had my seamstress make me these custom black and white outdoor cushions knowing that I would be styling them with these bright and colorful MacKenzie-Childs pillows. I also love how they complement my Courtly Check dishes.

White Eyelet Dress For Spring
Hey everyone, I hope you all enjoyed your weekend! We’ve been spending all of our time outdoors because the weather has been so beautiful. Speaking of beautiful weather, I just returned from sunny southern California where I wore this adorable white eyelet dress under $50 from Walmart. Even my blush handbag and rose gold wedges are from Walmart too. The rose gold wedges are even prettier in person and come in a flat sandal version too. I made sure to pack the flat sandals along with some cute and affordable sneakers that I found at Walmart too for exploring all over SoCal.
Be sure to check out Walmart for more cute shoes, accessories and clothing for the whole family.

Scroll through this post to see how I styled this adorable white eyelet dress for spring. For size reference, I’m wearing the XS and I hemmed it a few inches because I’m only 5 ft and hem all of my clothing to hit at a flattering length on my body. It’s the perfect dress for graduations coming up. Plus it’s super affordable.

Fun fact about these shoes: they’re called the Melrose Ave Said And Done Vegan Heeled Sandals and I actually wore them on Melrose Ave while I was in LA!

This circle bag comes in a gorgeous lilac color too.

I totally forgot to mention the best part about this dress… it has pockets!! I love when I realize that I dress I love has pockets!!

These rose gold wedges will go with any of your summer dresses, rompers and jumpsuits.

How to Style Your Entryway
Happy Friday friends! We recently decided to update our entryway with Kathy Kuo Home just in time for spring and it turned out beautifully. I centered my design around the most beautiful gold and wooden bead chandelier. I chose other gold pieces like the white and gold lacquer console table and antique round mirror to complement the light fixture. I love how mirror makes the entryway appear larger and I placed two blush ottomans beneath the console table to soften the overall look.
Scroll through this post for tips on how to style your entryway and if you love these Kathy Kuo pieces, you’re in lucky because we teamed up to give you 20% OFF with code: KKHxHOTR20

How to Style Your Entryway:
If you have a small entryway or your budget only allows you to add a few things, I suggest that you invest in a runner, a new light fixture and something to hang on the wall. If your entryway is narrow, I recommend hanging a mirror to make the area seem larger. Those few items are my top three must-haves for an entryway, but if you have more room in your budget, check out my tips below.
1) Place a small bench or console table against the wall beneath your mirror or piece of artwork. If you can fit items beneath the bench or table, add baskets for blankets and storage or ottomans for added style.
2) When it comes to styling your console table follow these helpful tips:
1) Add height with a tall vase, lantern or table lamp and balance out the height difference with greenery or floral stems.
2) Incorporate a personal item or decorative object to create more visual interest. I love how my little oyster painting from my friends looks on the table. I also draped some wooden beads over a decorative gold plate to tie in the light fixture.
3) Stack books for height like I did beneath my brass hurricane candle.
4) Add a pop of color! I added color with some greenery and I also placed 2 blush ottomans beneath the console table. You could also do this with flowers, a painting or decorative pillows in basket underneath the table.
5) Texturize! Last but not least, make sure to add some texture for dimension. There a few ways to do this. I incorporated texture with my patterned rug and the ottomans, but you can also add a blanket in a basket to soften the look or pillows like I mentioned earlier.
