Christmas Traditions

November 19, 2015

It is no secret that I am obsessed with Christmas. Thanksgiving has not even come, yet I cannot help but celebrate the holiday that comes far after it. One of my favorite parts of Christmas is all the cards we get in the mail. I love seeing families and how their children have grown since last year. I love ooing and awing over the different creative designs and just the excitement of something besides bills in the mail! Nathan and I's first Christmas card, here, was a picture from our wedding. This is the first year we get to take true Christmas pictures! I can't wait untill 10 years from now when we can lay out all of our own cards together and see how we have grown and changed. Enjoy a few pictures!

Buying new boots is a Christmas time tradition for me. Every year my style changes, last year I was open all about detailed buckles while this year I want simplicity. These are some of my favorite boots of the season! 

1. Sexy fringe Dolce Vita's 2. Classic suede in taupe 3. Classy and sharp

4. Simply point 5. Everyday open toe 6. Low key sexy boho

7. Firecracker flats 8. Classic 9. Spiced up class

Farmers Market with Thomas.

November 9, 2015

I woke up to a magical surprise Sunday morning, our heater was on! You have no idea how excited I was and just how good it felt. I have grown so used to sweltering heat I forgot how refreshing a chilly morning is. As the day went on the temp maxed out at a cool 70 degrees - perfect for this cozy poncho. Nathan and I piled in the car with our puppy Thomas and cruised the farmers market. What a Sunday well spent.

Welcome, my name is Mercedez! My husband Nathan, our little pup Thomas, and I just moved into the country outside of Austin, TX. We purchased our first home and haven't stopped renovating since! Follow along as I share my all of my favorite things in life; recipes, DIY's, beauty stuff, fashion, interior design, and so much more! 

I'm at a point in my life where getting a table runner on sale makes the day worth living.....hahaha Today Id like to be back in Saint Tropez. Everyone go follow my floral design Instagram. Ready, set, go! @theheirloomtable Down by the lake with my love. ☕️ bigger than my face. I need it today. Throwback to the good days at home in California. Sometimes, most of the time, I really miss it. I bought this 10 million dollar water bottle because it looked cool. 😒 Making salsa watching the rain😌 It's 82 degrees and raining. In Texas 82 degrees feels like sweater weather. One more house picture cause I'm loving our new living room. So much brighter and cozier than the last ❤️ I love our throw pillows! My kitchen sink window makes me so happy 😍
