The Peak of Rustic Chic

I have kept this December 2010 issue issue of ElleDecor in hopes to use as a frame of reference when building my cabin in Jackson Hole one day.

Mary Lynn Turner and her two daughters designed their family's rustic-chic home that sits along the Big Wood River in Ketchum, Idaho.  It's so french and so cozy and so huge!  I wouldn't change a thing.

Black and Camel

The combination of black and camel is by far one of my most desired when it starts to get chilly out.  In my new life, I have become more of a price-conscious shopper eventhough it pains me!  It's hard to spend a lot on an outfit, knowing I still have TONS to buy for my new apartment.   I have paired together a few of my somewhat affordable favs.




1. Camel skinnys: Yes, please.
2. Western belt: It reminds me of my Wyoming days. I'm wearing mine over blazers and sometimes in my belt loops.
3. Blazer: Can't get enough of them!
4. Scarf: OK so this is a splurge, but I've seen some cheaper- just can't seem to find them at the moment. I have this one but in different colors and it's great because you can show one or both colors. 
5. Gold chain: Great for layering. I love how its simple detail gives it a little spunk.
6. Gold cuff: I bought this when I was in Nantucket. Great little purchase.  I love adding it to my silver bangles too.

Shades of Neutral


As Kate Middleton repeatedly wears her nude pumps, I am reminded each time how I need to incorporate some nude in to my world.

1. I cannot find a blazer in this color under $300!  This one is beautiful though.
2. Gold bangle on Pinterest to accesorize these nude hues.
3. I have this on my nails right now and guarantee it will be my "go to" from now on.  San-Tan-Tonio by OPI.
6. Love this neutral space found on Pinterest.
