Hello Monday! And a very merry Monday in May. I think May is one of my favorite months. Mr. Style celebrated his birthday in May, I always schedule a trip to Tybee in May and then there’s the unofficial kickoff of summer come Memorial Day weekend! So many fun activities this time of year.
I thought I would dish up a fun post today as Kelly stopped by so we could share how the same outfit looks on a petite and regular. Plus, I’m kicking off a home tour that begins in my living room.
Today's featured items are a tee and flare skirt from Talbots

Come spring I do a little spring cleaning and spruce up my house with a project or two. This year I added sod to my backyard next to one of my patios. Inside, I added hardwood floors to my living room and entryway. I think I like it!

She’s 65, 5’8, and size 8.
Tasteful and refined. I would have expected no less! Thank you for sharing so much of you home and lifestyle. Enjoy your posts!
Nothing better than home sweet home! Thanks for stopping by!
You have a beautiful house Beth. Love the new hardware floors. I have hardwood floors too but mine are from a Victorian home was built in 1910 and it’s original floors. The only thing I was surprised at was the Cowhide rugs. Not crazy about them. Love Ollie sitting on the hallway table. Looks like a statue lol. Outfits are so cute! That is the cutest outfit you have had on in a long time So cute on you I know you are petite. Sometimes I can wear PTS but most of the time not Can I ask how tall are you are you ?
Isn’t it great we have different tastes? Vive le difference. Who are you asking about height? Me or Kelly? We list those stats when we post and they are included at the end of the blog post. Kelly always posts on Thursday.
I love orange on you! That is a great color for you. The Talbots link only takes you to the Navy colored tee. Your home is lovely and the one thing I would liked to have seen the source was the bowl in your fireplace. I did not see a link for that. Did I miss it? Thank you for sharing.
It looks as if the orange and white stripe tee is already sold out…
I love your post and tips about fashion, travel, cocktails, make -up AND the fact you are a Dog Mom!
Have q question, the built-in the Livingroom has, where the TV is housed, has it always been that color, I LOVE it. We have a similar one, in a dark wood, that I want to have painted, having trouble convincing my husband.
I had that built-in cabinet painted about two years ago and love it. It’s Claydon Blue, can’t remember if it’s Sherwin Williams or Benjamin Moore.
Sorry I Didn’t make it clear. I was wondering about Kelly’s height I know she is petite But I am 5’3″ which could be considered Put cheap but I can’t wear most petite clothes
When it comes to longer skirts I was wondering if I could do a petite or if the petite would be cut smaller even in the waist or Hips. Thanks
Kelly is 5’0″ and wears a size 0 and XS.
/Really cute skirt, top, and shoes. Both of you look so nice.
I think this skirt is so darn cute. And I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, I never met a stripe I didn’t like!
I’m laughing here at our similar taste in books – the pic with 5 books on the shelf, I have 3 of them (Sarah Style (she’s my favourite interior designer), Whisky in a Teacup, and Beautifully Organized). That’s quite the overlap!
Really liking the concept of you both in the same outfit so we can see how it works petite and tall. I’m in the middle of you and Kelly, though closer to Kelly height wise, so always useful to see how the outfits work like this.
Thanks, Lindsey! Kelly and I hope to work on more blog posts with the same outfit. It’s a great way to share what works on a petite can work with a regular size and vice versa!
Beth and Kelly,
You both out did yourselves. I don’t know which outfit is the best you both look great. And your decor is beautiful. Thank you for letting us see how you decorate your home..its fabulous! Oscor needs a striped t-shirt too! Thank you again.
Thanks so much, Nicole! I so appreciate your thoughtful comment. I agree, Oscar needs to get into the act too!
Thank you for sharing your home! It’s beautiful and very inviting. The way you’ve decorated conveys the feeling that anyone coming to see you would have a good time in those rooms. And I love both of your outfits. The orange looks great on you, and the navy blue on Kelly. Oh, and having a cat myself, I LOVE Ollie photo bombing the entry pic! 🙂
Thanks, Judi! Isn’t Ollie a hoot?! She lurks nearby whenever we work on a blog post or YouTube video. I think she wants
to steal the show!
Beth … tastefully done, which reflects so much of who you are!! I expect nothing less from you dear lady. Did you acquire some of your pieces from Ballard Design? Some of your pieces look very familiar to me. I love BD!! All the best,
MRS.M
