style, stories & everything in between
next week will mark four whole months that we've called #casaderivera home. honestly it feels like we just moved in/have lived here forever all at the same time. i'm truly SO proud of us for everything we've managed to accomplished over these past sixteen weeks and i look forward to putting the finishing touches on ...
despite the fact that it has only been a couple weeks since my last house update, we've made some pretty big strides over the last fourteen days in terms of home decor so this monthly-ish series is getting posted a little early. mostly because... WE FINALLY GOT OUR SECTIONAL! (and it's even better than we could have ...
bienvenidos a la casa de rivera actuliza numero tres. welcome to casa de rivera update number three! since we last checked in about a month ago, we have made quite a bit of progress. and by "progress" i really mean we've made a lot of fun purchases -most notably a craigslist $25 find that S promptly turned into ...
believe it or not, last tuesday marked ONE MONTH in the new house and it kind of feels like we've been there forever and just moved in all at the same time. we finally got through the last of the unopened boxes this weekend (thanks to my mom who came over and helped!) and aside ...

it's been a minute since i provided a #casaderivera update. i definitely plan on the next installment as soon as all of our holiday decor is up around the house. but in the meantime and in honor of cyber monday, i've gathered up some of my favorite home and holiday decor that's all being offered at ...
'tis the season for buying gifts. for yourself. as you are well aware i'm sure, november is perhaps the most anticipated month to shop because (let's say it all together, now...) BLACK FRIDAY. except that over the past few years retailers have decided to begin launching their annual sales days (sometimes a week+) early to ...
