I’m LOVING this room, with it’s minimal pops of orange, and really great texture throughout. Found here.

I know it’s a bit late to order these from Etsy, but they are so darling. Ornaments. Cup cake toppers. Garland. A myriad of possibilities. Happy Valentine’s Day!

31 Bits

GREY — Mon, 15 Nov 2010 11:00:47 +0000

It’s always a pleasure to work for companies like 31 Bits who have a really great mission and purpose behind their product. They are one of my favorite clients, not only because purchasing their products supports internally displaced women in Northern Uganda, but also because the women running the non-profit are so visionary and fabulous to be around. 31 Bits is rallying support to accomplish goals one would only dream of! (Their new website is up, so be sure to check it out!)

Last Thursday, we shot their upcoming spring line, which will be out in a month or so. When I style for this team, it’s a complete focus on wardrobe styling. It’s always a challenge putting together a cohesive look that is unique, a little unexpected, yet appealing to our target market. This shoot turned out to be one of my favorites we’ve done so far–we went with a nautical look, but had to keep it from being over-wrought. Photographer Trever Hoehne is always a dream to work with, so of course he makes everything look perfect!

Hope you enjoy!

Holiday

Holiday is officially upon us as we ease into November. I usually spend the month before Thanksgiving stockpiling new Christmas decorations (it’s a sickness, by the way. I can’t seem to stop myself). I stumbled upon this holiday wreath by Oh Merci! and thought it was so whimsical. Love it!

A Chair Gone Vogue

I love this chair gone vogue…It’s on a wall, and now, it’s a shelf. Fun, unexpected, and just quirky enough to work! What a great idea from Post Road Vintage!!!

Happy Halloween!! If you are carving pumpkins this weekend, here’s a little inspiration to make you feel completely inadequate about your carving skills:

Wait. Martha? You mean two triangles and a half moon won’t cut it? Gah. I admit defeat.

Comfort Food

GREY — Wed, 20 Oct 2010 16:00:06 +0000

As fall weather sets in for many of us, the cool air and cloudy skies seems to evoke the need for warm homey food, like soup, bread, roast chicken, and anything in relation to hot apples (read: cider, turn overs, carmel apples, crisp, et al). I found this recipe for Caramel Apple Turnovers on The Comfort of Cooking and had to share for two reasons. Reason 1: Yum! Reason 2: EASY! This recipe involves so few ingredients, you’ll be shocked!

Cross Stitch

I love all these cross stitch by Moxie Doll that I found via See Me Everywhere.
