Schyler, my boyfriend of 7 years, proposed to me on our recent trip to New York City at the beautiful Bethesda Fountain in Central Park! My sister spent Christmas with us in Pittsburgh and came with us on the trip where she was going to be staying to meet her boyfriend and his family in New Jersey. It worked out perfectly because Schyler was able to coordinate with her to capture the moment!
I am still in the process of decorating my Pittsburgh loft apartment! There is a wall in my living room that I have been going back and forth on for a while now. I wasn’t sure what to do with it because there is such a long wall and due to space planning there isn’t really enough room for furniture. So I decided to make a gallery wall!
Over Thanksgiving, I flew to Phoenix, AZ, where my parents have retired to spend Thanksgiving with my family! My parents had a hotel deal in Palm Springs for a week so after Thanksgiving we drove there from Phoenix so that I could enjoy a couple of days in Palm Springs with my parents and sister. I had never been to Palm Springs before so I was super excited to check it out! I had a few places I definitely wanted to check out, some of which were closed due to Covid, but it was still fun. I’m sharing all of the spots I loved in this blog post!
Our Christmas photos look a little different this year! We usually head to the Christmas tree farm but decided to take photos at home instead with Indio and I actually love how they turned out! My sister is coming to visit us this Christmas so I wanted to make our apartment extra cozy and special for the holiday! My interior decor style is bohemian meets mid-century modern and it can be hard to find Christmas ornaments that fit that style so I ended up making my own DIY ornaments and decorating around those.
Over the Thanksgiving holiday I flew to Arizona to be with my family. My parents retired in Arizona a few years ago which I am very happy about because I LOVE the desert! I can’t get enough of the beautiful saguaros. Schyler would not be down with moving there because of the heat but it’s nice having a home base there that I can visit! During my time there, I really wanted to do a bohemian desert sunset photo shoot and I love how the photos turned out.

I’m back with another boho holiday decor round up and this time it’s for Christmas!! I am so excited for Christmas this year because my sister is flying from LA to visit us in Pittsburgh for the holiday while my parents go to Colombia to visit family. I’ve been decorating like crazy because I want everything to look super special for her! My interior design style is mid-century modern meets bohemian and it can be hard to find Christmas decor that doesn’t clash with that style (in my opinion). So I have taken to Amazon to find boho Christmas decor online and I am sharing here!
On my recent trip to Philadelphia, I wanted to pull out all of my best fashion pieces! I thrifted so many great Fall staples from Thriftique, a local non-profit thrift store here in Pittsburgh. Fall is one of my favorite seasons to dress for because of all the layers. When I stopped by Thriftique, I had a list of things I was looking for and I found every single one! A great trench coat, leather pants, turtlenecks and more. I thought I would share my outfits and the amazing pieces I found in this blog post.
