Rustic & Beautiful



I am in love with these oars by New Zealand artist Home Base Collections. They are absolutely incredible. You can either buy prints or the actual oars - I want a little of all of them! The rest of her site is also just as breathtaking - nothing short of inspiring.

Summer Freshness




I am sure most of you have seen this by now, but I couldn't resist posting Chelsea's latest party ensemble over at Project Wedding. Amazing! I am so inspired to have a picnic - the colors, the simplicity (i would argue deceptively simple), the flowers, linens, everything is perfect!!!

Magical Nostalgia






There is something really magical about Pearson-Maron's ceramic figurines. Their childlike and very artful creations bring a smile to my face. And I see a few that wouldn't look too bad as cake toppers...

Delicate & Gorgeous



The designs of St. Kilda are exactly the kind of jewelry I love: simple, understated, yet sophisticated and lovingly delicate. Seriously, Nora's designs are gorgeous and are well priced, all handmade with love in Brooklyn - can you beat that?!? AND she just opened a shop in Park Slope!

Hot Pink & A Sweet Ride...




Rock 'n Roll Bride featured this wedding a few days ago and well, I am a little bit obsessed. First off, the dress with the pink under layers, so hot. The shoes? Definitely the sweetest pair of mary janes I have ever seen. And then the wedding party driving to the wedding in vintage Vespas!?! Are you kidding me? This wedding is way too cool for school! And the best part - the bride looks super chill and happy! Check out the rest of the photographs by the talented Solaria at Rock 'n Roll Bride.

Have a super awesome weekend - I hope you all have fun plans and get to hang out with your most favorite people in the world!!!

Whimsical Sweetness




One of my favorite toy designers has to be Esther Schulvens, the whimsical and colorful characters she creates embody such fun, loving, quirky personalities! How cute are their little stances?

Fawn and Forest sells a lot of her creations, which also happens to be one of my favorite stores to shop for fun little surprises. This new little world of baby stuff is pretty fun...

Something Old + Something New




I went to an amazing wedding this weekend and both the bride and groom were wearing fantastic vintage pieces from Pureville - had I not known they were from this talented designer I would have thought they were heirlooms handed down from their ancestors. His pieces are the perfect mix of something old and something new, as well as personal. His lockets, which are my favorite, give you the opportunity to add a touch of your own personal past.
