This time of year has been extra special, not only because it’s baby Sage’s first holiday season, but also because it’s our first time celebrating them as a family with Andrew and Arlo! Meeting Andrew this year was such a blessing after everything I went through in the past year, and I have so much to be thankful for. I remember being so sad last year at this time while I was still pregnant, and emotionally recovering from a difficult breakup. It’s amazing how much has changed in a year! Andrew has brought so much happiness into my life, I’m so lucky to have a second chance with an amazing man who makes my son and I feel so loved.

Cute Valentine’s Day Decor Finds From Target
By Esperanza on February 7, 2023I couldn’t help but round up some of the super cute Valentine’s decor I was spotting at Target! These finds are perfect for a Valentine’s (or Galentine’s day ;)!) party but would make very cute gift ideas for someone special too. I won’t really be decorating this year as we aren’t in our own place right now (we are temporarily staying with Schyler’s dad) but it was really fun for me to put this together and I hope it’s helpful for those of you looking for some Valentine’s day inspo. I hope you guys love these finds!
Merry Christmas! We snapped these Christmas photos at home before the apartment was turned upside down with the whole moving process. If you missed my last blog post, (linked here) I revealed that we are moving to Las Vegas in the new year! We knew we were moving a little before I made the announcement so we shot our Christmas photos early while all of our decorations and furniture arrangements were still intact. In reality the loft is half empty and most of our things are in boxes already which seems a little sad for the holiday but I don’t even care because I am so excited for the new move!
Our Boho Christmas Decorated Apartment 2022
By Esperanza on December 9, 2022I can’t believe this will be our 3rd holiday season in our little Pittsburgh loft apartment! Time just flew by but especially this year. I’m finally getting this blog post up, a little later than I’d hoped, but I loved how the Christmas decorated apartment looked and really wanted to share it with you guys! I decided to switch everything up this year and the simple changes make such a big difference. I’m sharing links to similar Christmas and apartment decor throughout the post too!
It’s that time of the year guys! I’m still enjoying my fall decor but plan on beginning the Christmas decorating process later this week. I usually wait until the day after Thanksgiving to decorate but this year I wanted to get an early start. I’ve seen so many cute Christmas decor finds on my weekly Target runs and a lot of my decor is from there so I thought I would do a roundup for you guys! These finds are very neutral + simple but also fit perfectly into the boho aesthetic which I love. I hope you guys enjoy this roundup and happy holidays!
Our Fall Decorated Boho Loft Apartment
By Esperanza on November 1, 2022Our apartment has actually been decorated for fall since October 1st, but it was such a busy month for us that I wasn’t able to shoot photos or sit down to write this post until now! We currently live in an old Pittsburgh loft apartment that I’ve styled with boho chic home decor. I decorated with a few simple autumnal touches that compliment the boho style perfectly and still feel very festive. I love taking photos with my boys for the memories and this quick at home photo session turned out so cute!
Neutral Fall Decor Finds At Target 2022
By Esperanza on September 9, 2022Target has so many cute fall decor finds right now, especially in the Studio McGee and Hearth & Hand lines! I’ve rounded up some of my favorite neutral fall pieces that also have an earthy and boho chic feel to them, my preferred design style right now. I hope this post helps inspire your fall decorating this fall 2022 season! I’ve linked all of these pieces below 😉
We decided to wake up early 4th of July morning to go on a walk in a nearby Pittsburgh neighborhood before it got to hot! We are spending the rest of the day indoors eating some yummy deserts + snack foods, playing games, listening to records and staying cool. I got a little patriotic and made a 4th of July inspired cake with white frosting and red and blue stars! Also, how cute is Indio’s little denim bow? I love our coordinated red, white and blue looks 😉
I saw the cutest boho tabletop garland at Target the other day for over $20 and I realized I could easily DIY a version myself! I have seen these everywhere lately, they are so cute and you can style them so many ways. I’m sharing an easy tutorial on how I made mine!
The idea for this garland came to me one night before bed, as so many of my creative ideas do lol, and I knew I had to make it. It’s so hard to find Valentine’s decor that isn’t just red or pink. I wanted to make something that was a little more neutral that would look cute in my boho chic apartment and it turned out so well, I had to share a little DIY tutorial on it!
