Hello everybody!

I recently learned that it is possible for blouses to pop open also if they’re too big. I think this is evil. I bought two blouses with plenty of room to try to avoid the issue and when on a date with my husband this past weekend the wind kept trying to blow it open! I then resolved to buy some snaps and put snaps in between each button. This seems to have worked!

I am really happy with the results and plan on adding snaps to everything I can at this point!

This is a fun theme and also a great chance to show off one of my most prized possessions which happens to be a mirror! I have this big bureau I have had since I was 3 years old that has a giant mirror that sits on top of it! It has historically been somewhat visible in my youtube videos and instagram posts.

Here it is!

Normally I have photos on the shelves as well but I removed them for this picture. It has been a wonderful place to display my knick-knacks. I have had over the years. It’s honestly a comfort object for me which is kind of an odd thing to say about a sheet of glass and metal but I received this from my grandfather who passed away this fall. A lot of the items I have on this vanity/dresser are gifts from relatives who have now passed so in a way it feels like I have the spirit of them with me in this home. To be honest before writing out this blog post I had never thought that hard about why this mirror is so important to me but upon reflection I find my reasons for it to be quite beautiful.

It also just has a great practical use as well! I have used it for coord shots and my husband enjoys using it to check out his outfits for the day as well. The mirror is a separate piece although it goes with the bureau making it easy to move.

I also have a hand mirror and brush that I love as well which I got as a gift from my mom. It’s very useful for checking my work on the back of my head when doing certain hairstyles.

So yeah, here’s my mirrors!
