Chic Back to School Essentials.



August 20, 2015

It’s that time of year! Back to school time is in full effect. Even though I’m years removed from my college days [time flies] I’m a sucker for the school supply aisle. I’m super guilty of spending way too much time in the notebook & pen/pencil aisle in Target. When the stuff is so cute you can’t help but grab it!

Whether you are heading back to school or need to refresh your office/desk space, why not do it in style?

Feeling Official. Desk Decor Ideas & Inspiration.



June 15, 2015

Up until a week ago, I did not own a desk. I don’t know if I ever have. In college, I was notorious for studying in bed and so far that’s where all of my blogging has taken place. Of course I’ve had thoughts of going to a cute local coffee shop to get some work done but I never quite make it out of bed. It really is my favorite place in my apartment.

I bought this beautiful desk and was really excited to get it home. Who knew what a task it would be to actually get it delivered and set up. I even had to do a whole room re-arrange to prepare a place for this massive desk. It would be a whole other post to cover the details of how it all came together. It took a lot of work and a lot of help (HUGE thanks to my brother) but it’s finally here.

What next? Time to decorate. Ever since I had the opportunity to purchase her I’ve been too excited to start searching for decor pieces. (insider info: in the gifts & home business all furniture is referred to as “she/her”…things you learn on the job) I’ve pulled together some desk decor as inspiration.

As I launch my styling & concierge business – Consulting by C. – this desk will be the epicenter of all of the magic. I feel like an official blogger now. Something about having a desk/work space makes a girl feel legit!

Follow my Pinterest page where I’ll be adding more inspiration for my desk.

Any other tips & cool desk ideas to share?
