Can't get enough of Alexa Chung









Thought I would splurge and give a little more Alexa-love to you all. Her awkwardness just couldn't be more right in my book. That's what I like (if you haven't figured out yet) a little off beat, a little out of the ordinary. It comes out so perfectly and so fresh! I can't get enough of Alexa and could just admire her style all freakin' day!

Bohemia on Kate Mefford



Much to my surprise as I was perusing my favorite photography blogs today, (yes, at work - shh!) I stumbled upon a post devoted to me - Bohemia!

Kate Mefford is 1. a dear friend and 2. a terrific photographer. We first crossed paths 2 years ago when she photographed my wedding and all the shin-digs that go along with it. We clicked from the beginning and have never looked back. We could ramble along for hours talking about inspiration for shoots, great magazine spreads, creative ideas, or basically anything and everything. Now she is our go-to gal whenever we need photos, no matter the occasion. Check out her sweet post about Bohemia here. (And don't forget to look around her site and blog - as it is so so fabulous, just like her!)

PS - A little side note to all you brides out there - 1. If you can get Kate, book her and fast. She is amazing! 2. If you would like any help with your wedding (ideas, venues, creative inspiration, etc) shoot me an email or leave a comment and I'd love to help any way that I can.

Spot On




Today was a struggle, let me tell you. It was just dragging by and didn't want to end. But finally, it did - thank goodness!

Now I can focus my attention on something a little more amusing - the spectacular fashion of Alexa Chung. (I just love her and can't say that enough! Love her!) She has the perfect mix of quirky, simplistic, trendy, and modern all rolled into one glamorous little ball. Just look at her in that simple leopard shift! Now, I'm not a huge animal print kind of gal, but I could definitely see myself sporting this little number a la Miss Alexa.

The Masculine Apartment











OK guys, take note - you can have a masculine apartment that doesn't have to be a pig-sty with no styling direction. The photographer Roland Belo's apartment is absolutely jaw-dropping - just look at that couch, that kitchen, that dining room table - oh my!

Even though the hubby has great taste, I will say that before we got married, his house was a far cry from Roland's above. The minimalism and earthy colors show no sign of the feminine touch, but it all comes together so perfectly and doesn't look harsh at all.

I'll admit, that I would even love to call this home. Great design has no limits for gender! Guys, you gotta step it up!

Happy Weekend!



We made it another week - whew! It was a tough one to get through, but our friend, the weekend, came back to visit right in the nick of time. (I just love it when he does that!)

Cheers - to a very happy, fun-filled, jam-packed, laugh-it-up, time-of-our-lives weekend!

Pizza Party



Who's up for a pizza party? (Don't ask that to the hubby because he would literally say yes every single day!) I am a pizza-lover just as well, but not everyday please. First, my taste buds need a break (fabulousness loses its flavor if you eat it everyday, right?) and second, my waist-line needs a break (pizza is not exactly figure-friendly, you know what I'm saying?!)

But tonight, we're definitely up for a pizza party with friends. And yes, margarita pizza is on the menu - I'm in!

Dreaming in White



Loving the multi-level!



I don't think a bathroom can get any better!



Little can make me happier than a white bed!



I have had deep fascination with all things white for quite some time - pretty much as long as I can remember. Most would say that I'm crazy because it's so impractical - but how can you resist! Just look at the images above! Isn't it so dreamy, so clean, so calming, so other-worldly? For some reason, unbeknown-st to me and everyone else who knows me, white interiors bring me a sense of "ah" that little else can top and catapult me to my dream world!
