Today was a fun work day! I got to go in late, do a few things in the office then head to an event in Fort Worth! The lecture was about social media in the event industry and teaching us ways to utilize it. I learned a majority of these things during my last year in college, but I was enlightened by many things as well. I surprisingly had a lot of fun. #ILikeNerdyTalk

Yesterday I went to ship out a new painting and the post office was closed for Veteran's Day. How come I never think about this before I run errands? I'm a dumb dumb. So I ended up buying some holiday decorations :) David has very, very strong feelings about not decorating for Christmas until Thanksgiving is over so I have to subtly and slowly sneak decorations in.. It's kind of fun, actually. 

Anyways, here is what I wore and here is the painting I'm shipping out soon! I got compliments from a guy about my hair and scarf, then about my mixed prints. Small compliments like that definitely make your day but it also got me thinking about the "mixing prints" epidemic and how much I love it. Some of the mixing I have seen is a little too crazy for my taste, but hey, if that's what you like then that's what you like! I hope that everyone has played around with mixing their prints at least a few times...

You can order your own custom-made painting at my Etsy shop here. I love designing new and original paintings and always welcome an idea for a new creation!

Happy Tuesday!

The last week has been crazy and has included David's friend visiting last weekend, the Texas State Fair, another work week, and my sister currently visiting! So this will be a very quick picture update :)

Miley's birthday was Monday so obviously I had to make a collage for her:

Yesterday, I took my sister to the Dallas Market for a little personal shopping and ended the night at Uptown with pizza and gelatos!:

Now we are headed to the Dallas Zoo! David and I have never been there so we though it would be a fun thing to do with my sister. Then who knows what the rest of the day will entail!
