Simplicity in Flowers



I'm in a nesting mood today and found some flowers at the market to fit my domestic state just perfectly.

Wouldn't this be a great and simple centerpiece idea for a wedding? I imagine rows and rows of bottles filled with baby's breath!

Chosen



The wish lists have been updated - right in time for the holidays! Is it strange that I just realized that I chose things based off of styling more so than the actual product? At least, I'll have some pretty things!

Classically Handsome



I hate it when guys try too hard or don't try it at all. It is so hard to find that perfect balance and pull it off flawlessly. But guys, when you do - you make us so so happy!

And a guy with style is difficult to find. Either they have it or they don't. And most of them out there, don't!

Pasta Perfection



So the Fall not only makes me marvel at absolutely everything, it also makes me crave pasta.

Give me a pretty plate filled with mounds and mounds of swirling pasta and scattered root vegetables, and I'm a happy camper. Ok, I'm not really a camper (not at all) but I'm up for pasta any day of the week.



Then place me in a small cafe with a chalkboard wall, ahh perfection!

The Fall Transition



Are you getting sick of me saying how much I love Fall? I can't help it - I just love it! I can become obsessed this time of year, and I think I've already achieved that state - sorry.

I love everything about the season - the cool air, the savory dishes, the rustic colors, the cozy smells, and of course, the layers upon layers of clothing! And I don't know if I love Fall because of these magnificent layers or the other way around. Oh well, does it really matter?

I can not get over the oversize blazer-preppy-with an edge look either. Menswear is here to stay, and even though I can be a girly-girl (only at times, very specific times) I love that hard attitude it brings.

Living In Color







We're back! A little sad about that fact but it feels good to be home. (There really is no place like home!) And since we were saturated with color all week long, I thought I would continue the streak with this amazing colorful home that balances simple and vibrant and chic all at the same time.

Off to Mexico



We are off for vacation - woo who! It has been a long time coming, and I am way too excited to wait any longer. I will be out of touch for the week, but will be enjoying a relaxing, luxurious, beach-lounging time with the hubby!
