Confettisystem-for-jcrew

I was thrilled to see two of my favorite companies, ConfettiSystem and J.Crew partner up to create amazing window treatments and props for the J.Crew stores and catalogs this holiday season. It's an explosion of color, shine, and whimsical perfection {You can see our studio tour with ConfettiSystem right here}.

recent encounters of the floral kind... 4 Oct 2010

Floral-heads-yes-please1

If you've read this blog for a bit, you may know I have a mild obsession with florals in quirky shaped vessels. So this post almost makes me hyperventilate at the awesomeness involved.

Floral-heads-yes-please2

Kelly of Yes, Please and Bash Please created this amazing lady {top two} for a recent event filled with a medley of color and flora perfection. If I had my way, I'd wear a full floral headdress every day like this colorful, lucky lady.

Then...weeks ago, my girl Bri spotted & tweeted this amazing duo on display at a shop in Glendale. I instantly became infatuated and went on a mission to find out where they were from. I had assumed they were vintage and one-of-a-kind until an email from Floral Art LA made it's way to my inbox, and voila...the mystery was solved. It gets even better...a couple days later...the doorbell rings and...

...a version of this very couple shows up at my door...a gift from Bob who surprised me with this succulent Mr. & Mrs.! It's surely the best addition to our new home thus far. I especially love their assymetrical, semi-mullet hairdo's!

ain't no party like a ban.do party... 30 Sep 2010

Bando-party

I'm a little late to the game on this...but on heels of yesterday's Closet & Casa with Jen from Ban.do, I had to share this awesome little diddy from a photoshoot by Rue Magazine about a Ban.do Birthday {pg. 199} that Bri and I just so happened to also be in {You can find me in a polka-dotted dress with yellow tights and Bri in an Alice in Wonderland ensemble with lavender tights}. Photographed by Max Wanger and filmed by Shark Pig, this sweet party was so fun to be part of!

When I lived in Philly, Brown Betty was one of my favorite spots to grab a sweet treat. So I was thrilled to see these photos by Laura Novak featuring the three generations of women behind this awesome bakery. The images are beautiful and truly shows the nod to their origins and vintage-modern aesthetic.
