Organization Me with Emily Ley

I love anything that helps keep my husband and I's crazy busy life organized. I always use a planner, because quite honestly my brain can't keep up with it all! I thought I would never find the perfect planner, but then I came across the Simplified Planner by Emily Ley. 

Aren't they SO cute??
I am pretty OCD when it comes to keeping a neat planner.
I want to have one place where I can jot down all of the daily and monthly "to-dos" as well as last minutes notes. 
The Simplified Planner has this and More. There is a to-do list, morning, afternoon and evening breakdown, monthly glance, weekend checklist and much, much more. 
I cannot wait to get the new 2015 copy :)
In the mean time, I've been taking advantage of her Free Printable Library. You heard me, Free..Printable..library! 

Here are just a couple of my favorites:

Day Planner
When I have a super busy day...or let's be honest, week, I like to print a couple of these off to keep me on track to staying organized and productive.
Password Log
This is a no brainer. All of those passwords in one convenient place. I have one for work and home. 
Blog Planner
For my fellows bloggers out there, this is a great editorial calendar. Have fun organizing all your brilliant ideas :)
Sunday Checklist
This is perfect. I love that Emily has taken the time to pre-write the things you and I try remember on Sunday night. Add your own little tid bits and this is the perfect list to help us begin our work week organized and ready to take on our crazy busy lives :) 
And finally, The Packing List
This one is just a nod to my OCD. I can't wait to use this checklist for my upcoming business trip and mini beach weekend :)

So, basically Emily Ley is amazing and her family is oh so super cute :) Check out her Blog (here) and shop her sight (here)! She has some amazing products, not to mention more free printables to help keep you and your busy family organized and productive.

3 Pieces to Transition you into Fall

Happy Monday!!

The hubs and I have been pretty busy doing a total overhaul on my office (Post to come!), but I did manage to sneak out this weekend for a little tax free shopping at the LOFT.  I shared my wish list with you here. Since I hit up the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale twice, I decided to limit myself to the items I could purchase in store and those I thought would be most versatile in my current wardrobe as we transition into Fall. I have to cut myself off somewhere ;) 

Here's what I came home with! 

This Shirt . . .

Floral Bud Utility Blouse

Where do I even start . . . this blouse is 1) crazy comfortable, 2) long enough to tuck in or wear out, and 3) can easily be dressed up or down. I see myself pairing it with the below looks as we finish out Summer, but I definitely plan to throw it on with a cream cable knit sweater, jeans and riding boots as we hit the Fall season.


Casual Friday or Dinner Out

LOFT skirt (similar here), old. Coach Sandals via TJ Maxx (cute option here).

Weekend Wear

Top (here), Sandals (similar option here), jeans (here), belt (here)

This Skirt . . .

Autumn Bloom Pencil Skirt

This skirt is divine! And Bonus: it's Lined! The lining not only helps the skirt lay nicely, but it also adds a bit of warmth as the weather turns cool. The cotton has some stretch to it, which makes this skirt super comfortable to move in. My only recommendation is to size up. This little number is made to be fitted. :) 

Weekend Brunch

All items via LOFT. Chambray (similar here), Top (similar here), Tote (similar here), Sandals (cute option here)

Casual Friday

Clutch via Ross (SUPER cute option here), Peplum Top via Target (similar here), Coach Sandals (similar here)

These Shoes . . .

D'Orsay Flats

These suede flats are amazing. I literally want them in every color. I decided to go with the taupe because 1) I don't have a taupe shoe in my closet and 2) because they are incredibly neutral. I could pair them with every outfit I've shown in this post and then some. Absolute perfection, and not to mention crazy comfortable.

For an early Fall look, I paired these flats with a LOFT cream bib blouse and the above pencil skirt. This outfit is perfect to wear in late September/early October. For some extra warmth and color, you could easily add a burgundy sweater. I have a boyfriend cardigan packed away from last season that I think would be perfect (cute option here!). 

The Office

Did you pick up any of these items this weekend? Which one is your favorite?
