hola.

hello dears! how ya been? i hope you've been great and you had a marvelous holiday weekend. i've been away from here, but not totally gone! if you follow me on instagram, you've seen so major happenings in my life lately. i'm still really ecstatic, so i thought i'd share over here! as you know, i've been working a lot on my event design business, PEPLUM events&design and we were recently featured on BRINK magazine's brand new issue! if you haven't gotten a chance to see it, you can check it out here! it is truly an honor and i still can't believe that they have named us one of the best brands of 2013! BRINK really focuses on young entrepreneurs and people who are really passionate and go after their dreams. things are really starting to happen for PEPLUM and i am just so very thankful!

as far as life altogether...it's been pretty darn sweet! i've been away since my anniversary, so there's a lot i need to catch up on. my "dapper day" birthday + anniversary vacation + a little peachy get-away + new haircut + a promotion at work + so much more! i've been doing a lot of nesting and finishing up a lot of my home projects. my hubby actually took on the most challenging and craziest DIY project yet! he always wanted a new paint job for his car and decided to do it himself with the help of his über talented buddy! i am so proud of him because he has done a pretty awesome job! well, THEY have done an awesome job! as soon as he's done with his car [which will be sometime this week!] we will resume with the house projects! here are some pics of some recent life happenings...enjoy!
