During the pandemic your channel became a source of peace and happiness for me. I understand a lot of viewers might be sad to see less of the cottage in the coming year or so, that makes sense because your content helped us through some dark times and we're emotionally invested. But I'm excited that you and Romeo can move forward to the next chapter of your lives! It's your life and I'm so grateful you make such pretty content for us! Excited to see what you do in the LA house next, and that blue RL dress is 👌🔥
Well said!
It seems that your heart is in LA. You just do not have that same zeal for the cottage as you once did. I have observed that you are happier and more into the LA home. We change and there are seasons in our lives when what once brought us happiness no longer brings us excitement. If that is the case you and Romeo have to decide if you want to divide your life between two homes. Big decision because your family is in Texas and his in LA. You have to follow your heart. I guess it is so hard because you have so much of yourself invested in the Texas cottage but in the end it is what brings you joy and peace. You have done so much and learned so many skills from the cottage renovation now you have all that under your belt to do the same to the LA home.
I agree!!
Stepping back can be a good thing. I know that when you're ready, the cottage will be waiting. It amazes me how much you did accomplish when you look back to the beginning. You are an inspiration to many women who have thought about tackling such a project but hesitated and let the doubt creep in. Enjoy your time and when you're ready, we will be here waiting for that stuff too. You're vlogs are about all the facets of your life and we're just happy you let us in. ❤😊
Exactly for me too 😢
you have to admit, its a compliment that all of us want to see you back at the cottage. after all the time we spent there with you, it's sentimental. thats how you grew your channel.
Lot’s of us started with her a whileeee back at her L.A apartment. We will follow her wherever she feels more comfortable beign. She doesn’t owe us anything.
I found her at the cottage. She is the best at doing this type of thing.
MaCenna, just thought I would give you a reminder that you are such a light! My fiancé and I are realtors in north Texas and bought our home last year to fix and flip while we live in it. We have done everything in the home and you inspired us in a lot of ways as we are sharing a similar journey to you and becoming better realtors for our clients because of it. Keep being you and creating wonderful content!!❤️❤️❤️
awww thank you so much!
I felt todays blog showed us just how much work the cottage has been. I actually would get a bit sad I possess zero renovation skills. In my opinion a good house is never done ✔️
I think you hit the wall when you finished up the kitchen cabinet doors. That was a mammoth task.
I’m so bummed we might not see any cottage reno for a while but I understand life happens! Btw - that blue dress looks gorgeous on you!
It took me almost 2 years to get pregnant because of stress and overworking. It’s so good you’re letting your body and mind relax to function properly. I hope you all the best with starting a family. It is well worth the struggle!
That blue dress was MADE for you ❤️ Neckline is supremely flattering also, don’t worry about its placement.
Macenna, what you are describing with your initial reaction to the cottage is definitely a burnout. I'm recovering from it myself, so I watched a ton of lectures about it, and some studies state that burnout and PTSD have common roots. So this overwhelming feeling is your body saying to you to chill and not to start another stressful episode again. I also had the same symptoms. It sucks when it's about your own house, but I guess what you need right now is to show your psyche that cottage is not a dangerous place, it's not only about being exhausted and stressed out. Which is a bummer to me as a viewer, because I love the cottage content, but honestly - I'd rather see you happy and inspired. It may take a longer time (for me it took a year) to recover from burnout, so I'm wishing you to heal at your own pace!
That blue dress is gorgeous and the neck line suits you perfectly. It is the type of dress you can wear anywhere. Elegance personified.
Your mom is such a creative soul. I'd love if you could take us on a tour around her house while you're there!
@@ThaomsGabriel?
She actually uploaded a tour of her parents home a few years ago. It's called My Texas home or something :)
I also think her parents very likely want to keep their house more private. She has shown small bits over the years when she has been there, but I’m sure they want to keep their lives more private. The vlog is MaCenna’s business not theirs,
@@everleigh245 Yes that's my name how are you doing and how's the weather condition over there with you?
@@lindafrance9192 She doesn't even mention her family surname. Her dad is super rich with over 20 very expensive cars in purpose built huge garage. If you want to see the house (that they built themselves) it was listed for sale for over 3 million dollars on property website for San Antonio area. It has Sky something in the name. It didn't sell for asking price because design is cold full of very expensive brand new but very dated in style chrome, mirrored surface furniture pieces and marble and brick inside, very masculine and not stylish like Macenna's own designs. They building a pool so they could sell for asking price because they kept being low balled
I noticed you have mentioned this topic a couple times so just wanted to comment and say you can definitely grow beautiful gardens in TX. It just takes work and care, just like any other garden in any other state.The person who owned the house before you in CA clearly loved gardening and put in the hours for you to now have a mature garden that probably doesn’t need as much watering now, and is also probably set up on drip irrigation. It seems unfair to compare the two. Plus, the growing zones depending on where you live in both states are similar; if anything TX would be too cold for certain plants that grow in CA, during the winter, rather then too hot.
I moved to Arizona from Pennsylvania three years ago, and I have really come to love a garden that uses less water (the name escapes me at the minute). That type garden wouldn’t be common for that style house, maybe, but it wouldn’t be difficult to keep when they’re away.
I think she's referring partly to the fact that she won't be there enough to give the constant care. This is a second home, not where they live and in that heat, beautiful gardens can be had, but they require constant attention that she can't give.
I agree. My Texas garden requires care just like gardens everywhere, but our plants do survive and even thrive.
I agree with both xeriscaping and water management like drip irrigation. There are beautiful deer and rabbit repelling plants that are also heat resistant. I garden near a wild space in Colorado and my main garden is bordered with what I call stinky and pokey plants. They work great at minimizing wildlife. A good local landscape designer or master gardener could advise you, even using the plans you had done as a guide. Don't give up on the garden!
@@camille9892 Thank you on the xeriscape name. It completely slipped my mind.
What you have accomplished with the cottage in two and a half years is tremendous! You are right not to have a timeline. Enjoy the journey. Have fun along the way. I'm enjoying this with you!
shopping for china, christmas ornaments and gold frames? waste of time
@@JamesSteinman-eo1ho
LOL And how many people do YOU have tuning in to see whatever it is you would shop for?
How is this a reply to my comment??@@JamesSteinman-eo1ho
Just what I needed, a MaCenna video
💯🥰
I miss seeing the cottage progression. I was so invested and not seeing it feels like missing an old friend. I know life gets busy, but going a year without any projects is going to be sad. Once you start a family youll have even less time for reno work.
I agree I understand completely life gets in the way, but I love the cottage😢
It's crazy to me that you knew you were getting your cottage in October 2020. That's the same month that my first child was born! I love that this cottage journey is as old as my oldest child. It's so fun! 🤍 I remember in early 2021 when I was sleep deprived and your videos helped get me through those sleepless nights. 🤍
omg same! haha i always looked forward to the reno vids in lockdown while sleepdeprived and nursing a baby!!
MaCenna, I think this cottage transformed your channel completely. You developped so many new skills us teaching that even without experience we all can achieve this, if we are applied as you are. And the income from sharing this process made it possible to buy the house in LA. I admire your motivation, elbow grease and engagement
Hope you & Romeo and Romeo’s family are all safe and doing well with Hurricane/ Tropical Storm Hillary coming through California.
The pool needs bubblers to help cool it down in the hot summer heat.
good so far just a light sprinkle right now! thank you :)
Praying your home isn’t affected by Hillary at all…🩷
Been thinking about you all.Friends of ours live in Reno he said it was a light rain.The blue dress looked beautiful on you with a belt,boots, perfect for France.😊
Hope you, Romeo, and Kinsley are safe. Thank you for the video. P.S. that dress is gorgeous
When I see estate sales I always think of my mother. She was married in 1936 and the Depression was difficult for them. She treasured her things and I think of how the things for sale were loved and collected by the owner.
Yes sometimes the idea of estate sales makes me sad…a person’s life being rummaged through by strangers but then also it is beautiful when someone like Macenna comes along and loves and treasures things again.
@@jennifergraham3752Well said.🖤🤍
@@jennifergraham3752 so true. It makes my heart warm.
If that fabric is white, wrap it and rewrap it and wrap it again. And then tape it well.
Really just want to see you build something. Huge fan but idk how many more estate sales I can take 😅
There’s a slight hack going around if you put a canopy shade tent over your ac unit to keep it shaded your house will stay cooler, my sister and BIL did it at their house last week and said it really helped during this heat wave!
Yes! Good information to share! You can get one with magnets that keep it on your unit. My son recommended that I turn sprinkler on (slightly) to cool the unit. (hoping it will save the compressor).
That blue dress is so pretty on you. Including the neckline. It’s perfect. That colour blue really suits you.
Once you begin a family, your lives will change dramatically. I'm afraid you won't find the time to devote to the bigger reno projects. We understand that. Life isn't about providing content for videos. Life is an ever changing journey. 💖
Yep!! The Reno’s will most likely be no more
Even if she moves away from doing it all herself when she has a baby, keep in mind that her mom has had several huge house projects while raising MaCenna. It'll simply be more a case of hiring out the more time consuming jobs, I think she'll still be as involved in decision making and detail work. Just less hands on 😊
Life doesn’t stop when you get a kid tho. Her own mom is an example
In a way, MaCenna's life IS about providing content for videos. It's literally her job - what she does for a living to pay expenses just like anybody's job. The lucky thing is that Romeo is working from home a lot, too, so he will likely be a pretty hands-on dad. And they can always hire a nanny for some hours every week to enable them to still do what they need to do. It's no different from returning to work and dropping your child at daycare or hiring a sitter to come in.
@@Lucinda_Jackson Yes, I know all that, not sure how old you are, how much of life you've yet to experience, but I'm 65, raised a family, worked a corp job 55 hours a week, had a side business, so I can speak from experience. Loved raising a family, but it is a tremendous responsibility and you give up much of your freedom to do things outside the daily tasks to keep everything afloat, with or without a partner's help. Her life WILL change and that's ok, and it's a beautiful thing. If her video content changes, or she decides to pursue different venue, that's ok. MaCenna spoke at length about experiencing burnout on renovation projects and she's not a mother yet. I'm sure she will continue to provide content for videos as a mother and continue her channels, podcasts, social media, etc., but the struggle will be real. I'm just saying change is inevitable and that's ok...
Macenna and Romeo on your journey to have a family...
May the Lord bless you
And keep You
And make His face shine upon you
And be gracious to you
May He lift up His countenance towards you
And give you peace
💜
Beautifully said. ❤
Thanks for keeping us updated it’s nice to know your mindset and seeing how things have shifted. Your plans sound lovely. Enjoy all your travel and taking a break from having timelines. Sounds very balanced and healthy! In my heart of hearts, and my ADHD brain, I really would love for you to finish the kitchen (glass cabinet, pantry, coffee bar) and even final decor (curtains/window treatments in living room and dining room) before moving on to the other rooms. It would make my brain relax lol not that my opinion matters! But if you were taking a poll on what your audience would want to see I would say finish the kitchen projects! Good luck to you with everything, love all of your content no matter where you are, enjoy every minute of the journey. Cheers to you.
My brain works like that too❤
I would vote with you in that poll! My own brain, though, would be like MaCenna's - on to the next big thing and fill in the small stuff here and there as I go.
I agree! Would be nice to see that part fully finished
I must add my vote to the love ♥of seeing the cottage again! It feels like a house of warmth, love, and wanting to cocoon with a good book! This is bc you have put your passion and love for design into it over the past 2.5 yrs and that is the reason we all have fallen in love with it! It is going to be a great second home to spend time with your Texas family and create wonderful memories for your children to experience and enjoy the culture you grew up in Southern Style! Also, Love your choice and taste of the clothing you bought. Very classy & great score! The blue dress looks really great on you, not super tight, so I hope you won't shy away from wearing it outside the house. The red knit skirt & top look awesome on you, too! All the clothes you bought...Cute, cute! Thank you, as always, for sharing your life with us! ♥
The neckline on the blue dress is really flattering on you. You should try more of that style.
Loved seeing the cottage again! It's my favorite place to visit on YT!
That blue dress looked very good, even with the neckline you don't like! Haha. Such a shame about the pinholes in the blue shirt because it looked SO Parisian and delicate on you!
What she said….
MaCenna! All the clothing works on you! Soo cute!!
What a happy time with your mom!!! I would suggest you add a belt to the Ralph Lauren dress… it looks so good on you… actually all those clothes are beautiful 🎶🎉💕
YES to cornflower blue RL dress. The neckline is very flattering on you, McCenna. It would look stunning with a camel-colored leather/gold RL belt.
she knows how to accessorize if thats what she was going for. have you not seen her videos from years ago?
Actually no,@@nonsense289
@@nonsense289
We know she's capable. People are just offering their opinions. And I actually share that opinion. MaCenna felt like the dress was too large, but it's really not. It's just too long through the body. Try it on and then lift your shoulders up to your ears and it will look perfect. It's simply too long-waisted. A belt with the dress worn with the top in a slight blouson, would adjust the proportions and put the waist of the dress at her waist and align the hips as well. Perfect fit!!
Happy to see back in Texas ❤
But sadly since the last video I’ve got a feeling that you’re not enjoying staying at the cottage and finishing the rest of it 😢
I can see it in your eyes 😞you used to be so excited to be there and more passionate about it 😢😢
and you’re just doing it because of us and the channel 😔
That's how I felt too!
I agree, to a point. The cottage was a dream come true. The excitement of knowing her ideas of restoring this beautiful place was slowly coming true, and add our excitement of seeing it with you, wanting you to hurry on to the next room. Lots of pressure. Now, with the new house in LA, the excitement of not only making it their own, but wanting to start a family there. I get it. I'm excited to see what's next, on her timeline.
Yeah, I noticed the same since Vlogmas
Doing your own house renovation gives you so much valuable information & a lot of Confidence in making decision’s in the renovation . MaCenna, you have done such a amazing job on all your renovations on the cottage. I have been a subscriber of your channel since 2019. I have enjoyed watching your growth and knowledge come full circle. From your apartment in LA, to doing rooms for your nieces, to the Cottage in Texas, to your beautiful house in LA. Such a fun journey 😃 👍
Hope we get see vlogs of France!! I love love watch families restore Chateau’s on UA-cam. Grow to love people on here. When you found Christmas decoration with year you said born I’m like OMGosh! I could be your mother!!💜🌈💜
MaCenna, take your time and enjoy the process!! I love anything you post and don’t mind the renovation taking longer because it’s fun to wait and see what you will do! Love the blue dress and the neckline is pretty on you. Also love both of the black tops! Would you be willing to do a post someday on how you edit and post your moms art online? As an artist I would love to see how you 2 do it!
I hope you are safe from all the terrible weather/earthquake issues happening now in SoCal. Any content you give us is wonderful. You do you & we will watch.
The blue dress is beautiful on you, and the nekline is perfect.
The blue dress is beautiful on you!
A tip: if I don't like a neckline (light blue dress), I turn it around and then wear a low neckline on the back.
The red skirt suit looks amazing on you. Actually it's all very pretty, and I do love the blue dress. The sweater set with the bow would look cute on your mom.
It was so good to see the cottage again. I just love your relationship with your mom.❤I trust with you to hear good news from you as you plan to start a family 😊
That blue dress looks so good on you! I think the neck line and just the dress in general is very flattering on you!
I swear ,I am propped up on a pile of pillows on my bed with a cuppa and it's like you were here chatting away . 😊 You are so comfortable on camera and have such a presence, you're really very talented. Also the blue dress is classic and looks great . Till next time !
Same here! 🙋
MaCenna! You can absolutely have a California garden at the cottage❤ You can install a deer fence and deterrent for nibblers like bunnies 😊 A walking garden in TX would charm us all to tears
I didn’t think you were thinking of selling the cottage (her) but hearing you say you’re not selling her makes my heart so happy!!!!❤
My grandparents raised there family in my Lakeville Texas.....they had fruit trees,and flowers and vegetables, more overgrown then your California home. So growing in Texas is very easy!!!! You just have to try and put up fence....they also grew crops, corn etc. Love the cottage!!!!!!!!
I’m so excited to see what you do to the coffee bar !!!
I’m so glad you are going to take your time with the cottage renovations. It just means it isn’t going to end any time soon for us the viewer. I know in the past I’ve wanted to see something worked on and the finished product shown, quite quickly. But then so disappointed when there was nothing left to watch. So please take your time and stretch it out as much as possible. 😊
I loved seeing your mom and the cottage. We must bid adieu for now, but I look forward to your return to TX.
Side note: that blue dress looks great on you!
I’m so relieved that you don’t have plans to sell the cottage!!! Love you MaCenna ❤
I'm so happy you went to texas .. i missed your mom ❤
Ok massive tip for France! I’ve just been to Paris and I found this amazing. I can’t remember if you went to see Monet’s water Lillie’s last time (at the l’orangerie) but if you go this time, take your phone and earphones with you. They are supposed to be viewed in silence to get the full effect but with the number of visitors the gallery is still pretty noisy. To help with this I put in my noise cancelling earphones and then put on Debussy’s Clair de lune and then his reverie L. 68: reverie. Massive game changer. The combination was so beautiful I nearly cried. It just makes the whole experience so serene and beautiful and special. I highly, highly recommend. Also BOOK A TICKET before you go (and for anywhere else you want to visit) - the queues are massive. 😊
So enjoyed seeing you & your mom together.. she's just precious! I really loved your estate sale finds, the clothing was too good, great score! And I have to say this.. it honestly made me smile when you were talking about starting your family😊 That's gonna be awesome to see you & Romeo as parents! I know that he/she will be right in the midst of all reno's or whatever work you guys will be doing!!
The blue dress is going to look so precious with your bump! ❤
Look at the neckline on the blue dress it's Gorgeous on You & the fit is perfection hits in all the Right 👍 places...it's a Keeper !! ❤
The cottage is complete enough to live in and it functions. Just be there and soak up its vibe. It will speak to you and you will know when it’s time to start the next project
You deserve a break. You have worked so hard. Enjoy life. Keep vlogging. Keep sharing your life. The projects will be there. If you can, get someone else to help you with the house in Texas. Life comes first. Enjoy.❤
The blue dress looks wonderful on you and I think the size looks great.
Lots of fun to see you and your mom thrifting or estate sale shopping.
The blue dress is stunning on you, perfect size to just graze your shape, have lace stitch across the neckline, the red skirt set (in my opinion) does nothing for you. Perhaps it’s the colour. The blouses are gorgeous and great finds.
That’s a copper pot for boiling water…then you could fill your pretty china teapot and enjoy a cuppa in your pretty china teacup 🫖☕️
Enjoy the journey and you’ll never be disappointed with the time it takes! 😊💖
That blue dress looks beautiful on you!
While gardening is different in Texas I think you could definitely use drip irrigation and some native plants to create a different kind of beautiful lush garden space in Texas. I also think soring renovations in Texas sound like the way to go. Better weather, the season of reblooming and growth seems poetic. It's so necessary to take a break we'll be here when you're able.
WHAAAT the neckline is PERFECT on you! You seem like a soft natural or flamboyant natural to me (we have similar body types) I also hated v-neck or lower necklines, but if you notice the way it balances you and goes with your lines- it looks really good!!
You have worked so hard. I feel like you are now a general contractor, an electrician, a plumber, and a master carpenter. It's astounding.
The blue dress is perfect.
The blue dress is a yes…looks great on you…the red suit is so good…tops are great!
I love both homes and what they evoke in you. I love all your projects, big and small. Everything you do is beautiful and a masterpiece. I also wish you the best on your journey to become a mother. Cannot wait for that version of MaCenna to be born.🥲🤎
So so good you are not putting any timeline ❤️ no rush ! So glad you can enjoy this now !
I’m always surprised seeing you in sweatpants and sweatshirts this time of year. Telling us it’s over 100 degrees while you’re dressed for winter 😂😂😂Your electric bill must be crazy high.
I have that same Ralph Lauren dress in a dark red,soooo comfortable,one of my favorites! ( sometimes I wear it as a lounger). Love the color of yours!
I like the blue with the V neckline. The dress looks great on you.
MaCenna, I love that you're taking this summer to slow down & prepare for your family's future. I can't tell you enough how much this community appreciates the frequency in which you post to your vlog, renovation, & podcast channels. I can only imagine how busy this content keeps you! Sometimes I get sad thinking there may come a day when you announce that you're stepping away from creating content, even if you continue to renovate the properties in TX and L.A. You have been a major inspiration, & as my husband & I prepare to purchase our first home, I cannot wait to use the lessons you've taught me, one room at a time! Thank you for your transparency & for including us in your journey, & most importantly, thank you for being you! ❤️
I found you during the pandemic when all of us were very low. I stayed bc I'm living for all of this. I love the cottage reno videos love them, but I'm also loving all the California updates. I can't wait for your kitchen cabinets to get painted and get new hardware 😂😂 why? I honestly don't know but you've created a monster lol. I stared a small landscaping job with my husband and had to put the breaks on it bc it's way harder than you make it look. We're renting a tiller and should be easy after that. I would never have tried that if it weren't for your channel. I also sanded, stained, and protected some picnic tables we had and brought them back to life thanks to this channel making me believe it was a doable project, lol. Hats off to you 🍻🍻🍻
That little black sweater with the scalloped edges was ADORABLE! 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It’s so wonderful to see the cottage! I love your home! I think you are right on to look at the continued Reno as a process to enjoy and complete on your life timetable . That will make it enjoyable and not burn you out as it did before. Love seeing Your Mom again. XO Marie
So glad you’re taking a slower pace for a bit.
Especially important if/when you are preg or trying to.❤❤❤
I love that blue dress on you! Your blue eyes really pop when you wear that colour!
That blue dress looks so cozy and comfy.
I hope your LA home is nowhere near the flooding or the earthquake that I've just seen on the news here in Australia :(
Omg…the blue dress will be crazy cute when you have a baby bump too. Love all the clothes
The Ralph Lauren dress with the v neck looks awesome!!!
I verbally yelled yes when I saw you had posted haha, the blue dress is soooo cute on you!
32:37 the red set is giving cosy cute Christmas !
I have followed the whole process at the cottage. I love your videos and they kept me with something to see while during the alone and inside during the PDic . Thank you soooo much for your hard work Plus everything else.
You can totallly have a garden like you do in California in Texas, you just need to put in the work the previous owners did for your CA garden for your TX one. Like irrigation for when your away to water but we actually have similar growing zones, you would only need to watch cold hardiness here in TX vs CA! Deer can eat your plants here in TX but they won’t ruin your entire garden and they’re are deer resistant plants to keep them away!
Beautiful vlog again as always! All the clothing items were gorgeous and the blue I absolutely love on you. A belt or beautiful scarf at the waist could be used if you feel it was too big but also could be used for a early maternity dress if and when that time should come. ;-) I think it fit you well and just enough room but not too much. I think that neckline on you was extremely attractive. Whomever owned those items had exquisite taste indeed! You wear your clothes well so no worries on that. You and your mother are very stylish and can wear just about anything you like. You're fortunate in that. Wonderful informative video. I am so excited for your trip to Europe. So exciting!
Blessings
The relief I felt when you said you weren’t selling the cottage 😂♥️ we are all invested in this lol
That blue dres is friggin STUNNING on you, so gorgeous, neckline and all.
The blue dress looks so nice on you!!
Me too! I love the work you did on the cottage. It’s so well done. I mean the restoration was an enormous amount of work. I watched all those window repair jobs, geeze that was intense. But also the panels and base boards… so much. That is why I love this house because you did so much.
OH My Goodness! I chose and installed the floral tiles with black tile as my kitchen backsplash and it turned out gorgeous! I just love it!
MaCenna , I love both of your houses and your visions for them. If I could say for now keep the cottage and do things slowly n bit by bit ,to get the ability and personal need to slow down a bit but still have your creative outlet . The other thing with the cottage - it’s close to your parents and allows you and Romeo to have a different state of mind- place / home to be at peace and your future family plans.
It’s my 20th birthday today and for some reason (I don’t know why) I have been feeling pretty down and sad today. Your video totally made me so much happier (as they always do). So thank you for making me feel happier on my birthday!❤️
Happy birthday! I hope your day ends on a high note
Awe, birthdays are hard for some of us. I pray that your day is filled with joy, even if you find it in the simple things. Happy 20th!
@@hahna77 @kellarz Thanks you so much! I guess I was just a little stressed about getting older and what you "should" accomplish when you have turned 20. But my day has been so much better so far!❤️
Can’t wait to see the cottage gate.
NOEL .. seeing it as a sign ✨✨✨ (family vibes) ✨✨✨
The blue dress is great on you, including the neckline! I love that it’s more skimming and not tight. Great find!!
I moved to North San Antonio area October 2020. A garden can definitely work here! You must amend the soil bc it's mostly rock/clay, use drip/soaker hose on a schedule, have a fence, and work with a landscaper/knowledgeable nursery. Rainbow gardens is great, but there are a few others on the west side too.
you look like a goddess in the blue ralph lauren dress, it suits you so well.
I’ve so missed seeing the cottage, can’t wait til it gets back in the spotlight one day! But also can’t wait for the Paris trip footage 😊
Love that color on you, the dress is great loose looks more sliming than tight and the neckline is wonderful.
The blue dress is stunning and matches your beautiful blues eyes. Im a 70 yr old and admires young ladies with all that enthusiasm and talent that you have. Good luck to you, Romeo, and Kingsley. Be safe with the storm.
I remember when you wanted to be able to move in by the first Christmas!😂
Hi my dear💞Every time I see your moms home especially I adore her kitchen. She is such a great decorator and artist. I love when you both are together and take us along. 🌷🌺💐💞💗
With the blue dress, you could turn it around so that it has a boatneck in the front and a v neck in the back. I do that all the time and as long as the tag isn’t visible you can never tell it wasn’t designed that way. the V in the back feels very elegant and I get compliments every time I do this. Hope this helps you! You’re an amazing person, thanks for all the work and detail you put into your channels 🥰
All the estate sale finds are so good! For the dress maybe you could wear it backwards? Then the v will be in the back and it'll feel more like a crewneck in the front! :)
