Hi Everyone! This week I’m taking a fall break to spend quality time with family and do some behind-the-scenes work on the blog. I’ll be back next week with two Halloween-related posts that pile on the retro style. Until then, I’m sharing a few links for you to check out and enjoy…
Fall at Mirror80
In honor of fall’s arrival, today I’m sharing some of my favorite Mirror80 posts…and giving you a sneak preview of what’s to come in the next couple of months! Keep reading for plenty of fun fall project ideas, lots of retro-modern styling, and a little taste of autumn!
Happy 6th Birthday, Mirror80!
Today Mirror80 turns 6! On August 15, 2010, the blog launched with a post about the return of ’80s design. Below I’m sharing a few favorite milestones. But first, cupcakes! I’m all about taking time to celebrate milestones, especially since time seems to speeding by the older I get. So today it’s all about being grateful for the past six years…
Neon, Palms and Ocean Views
A work trip turned into a fun trip last week when I hit California to collaborate with my good friend Jon of Happy Mundane. It had been 8 years since I’d visited California, and I’d never been to SoCal. There was inspiration everywhere I looked, from the rows of palm trees to the abundance of shopping centers with neon lighting. And don’t get me started on the mall interiors!…
Behind the Scenes: Spring Edition
Happy Wednesday! It’s been an exciting couple of weeks for the blog, so I thought I’d share some behind-the-scenes fun. My friend Jon from Happy Mundane came to visit me in Austin, and we worked on a colorful collaboration, then ran around town checking out interesting locations and snapping photos…
Have a Fabulous Holiday Weekend!
As we start winding down for the long holiday weekend ahead, I wanted to wish all of you a wonderful, colorful, relaxing Christmas! However you celebrate the holidays, try and find a quiet moment in the middle of the festivity, and make time to connect with the people you care about…

Mirror80 Snapshots: Behind the Scenes
Hi there! Just checking in to say hello…and that I hope fall has been treating you well. It’s been a busy one here at Mirror80, and today I wanted to share a few behind-the-scenes snapshots. Are you ready for some photos?!
Mirror80 September Favorites
It’s been a vibrant month here at Mirror80! Can you tell I’m celebrating the color and festivity of summer for as long as I can? But as someone who loves design, I’ve also noticed that this year more than ever, designers, bloggers and retailers have been putting a unique spin on fall (rather than getting wrapped up in the usual fall motifs). Pastels and even pineapples are emerging as trends, and this makes me realize that each new season or holiday is exactly what you make it.
Fall Style at Mirror80
Happy Monday! This Wednesday marks the official start of fall, and after a busier-than-usual summer, I’m ready to settle in for some relaxing fun this autumn. Isn’t it great when a new season is on the horizon, and you can pretend that it won’t be as crazy as the one that came before it? Seriously hoping to slow down a bit, though. Whether life calms down or revs up, I intend to keep a few of my favorite traditions alive in the coming weeks, so I’m sharing my plans with you today, complete with photos and links to previous Mirror80 blog posts. Lots of fall style to enjoy…
