Water for Elephants
Tuesday, May 3, 2011 at 1:24PM Last night I finally went to see Water for Elephants, which was wonderful and definitely lived up to the book; I would not have changed a thing! I could not be more obsessed with the costumes (designed by Jacqueline West), especially those on Reese Witherspoon. I highly recommend the movie, even if you haven't read the book!

Life Can't Stop

I can't stop thinking about this image! I'm obsessed with the unexpected combination of stripes (even the shoes!). Get the look by pairing striped pieces that have a "stripe" in common i.e. black in this case. So chic!

Style Kate Spade + Adeline Adeline

I've been secretly craving a bike from Adeline Adeline ever since I saw their line of goods last year. It comes as no surprise that Kate Spade has teamed up with the shop and collaborated on a Kate Spade bicycle! And how sweet is the promo video!

A Brief Hiatus
Wednesday, April 6, 2011 at 4:45AM 
I have a confession. I have too much going on right now. My final portfolio is due on April 27 and until then I am busy busy wrapping up projects, having them photographed, and designing my portfolio. This book is the culmination of three years of intensely hard work, and on top of that I have other classes and obligations to attend to.
In short, I just can't do it all, and right now my blogging has to be put on the back burner. I'm not disappearing completely, I'll still be around and posting from time to time but I just can't keep up with my usual schedule.
See you in a few short weeks -- hard to believe I'll be just about done with college & on my way to graduation!!
Life Airy Goodness
Tuesday, April 5, 2011 at 6:00AM I'm obsessed with the look of Jess Loraas' apartment featured yesterday on Design*Sponge. Modern, but with a light, comfortable feel to it. How cool is that wall-size map of Paris in the bedroom?

Thursday, March 31, 2011 at 9:00AM I've been a longtime fan of Kelly who runs the High Street Market Etsy shop which is stocked full of amazing vintage finds! She just added some new stuff to the shop so check it out! Here's what I'd love to buy if I had my own place...

After seeing this image on Pinterest I decided to spice up my typical one color manicure with an accent of gold.

Sail Away
Monday, March 14, 2011 at 4:45AM 
Sorry for my absence last week! My computer's screen decided to die - so convenient during midterms week. As of Friday I've been on spring break and starting tomorrow I'll be on a weeklong cruise in the Caribbean! Hope everyone has a great week and I'll be back to regular blogging on Monday the 21st!

Life Cruisin'
Wednesday, March 9, 2011 at 8:00AM In less than a week I'll be sailing away on a cruise ship leaving from Miami, stopping at Key West and Cozumel. It's my first cruise and I couldn't be more thrilled about spending four relaxing, sun-filled days on the ocean! I plan on packing lots of relaxed pieces like these.
Gap Fedora / Calypso Dress / Madewell Shirt / Fabric and Handle Tote / Karen Walker Sunnies / BC Sandals / Essie Polish / J.Crew Bathing Suit
Ban.do Bow
Wednesday, March 9, 2011 at 3:45AM I've been wanting something from Ban.do for awhile, but have had such a tough time deciding what to get! The new Gold Bow Bobbi is my current top contender and is on sale for 15% off when you enter goldbow at the checkout through Friday!
