Seasick on Land

Even though boats make me seasick in the water, on dry land they are much more appealing.

Holy Fireplaces!

While dreaming up fireplace sketches for some wonderful friends of mine I ran across this picture...

I cannot get it out of my head.

Deco, antiqued mirror dreaminess.

Home Sweet Home Giveaway!

I was so excited when I came across these beautiful house signs the other day.

They are enamel, glossy, and brilliant!

I was even more excited when I found out I could do a Ramsign giveaway and offer one of the beautiful house number signs, to one of my wonderful readers, anywhere in the world!

Ramsigns are handcrafted in Denmark and are based on vintage house numbers which are stenciled onto thick porcelain and enamel.

I feel like all of the Ramsign signs looks so beautifully European that I should be walking down a cobble stone street sipping an espresso.

To enter for one of these beautiful house numbers all you have to do is visit Ramsign and then come back and leave a comment on which sign and style is your favorite. I will announce the winner next Friday April 1st!

Good luck!

Coffee Table Books

Some of my most recent acquisitions...

The inside of this baby is just as gorgeous as the outside.

How could you not be happy when you see this?

The best book about the way people really live in their homes.

Of course.

I couldn't help but smile when I saw Kate Spade's newest book clutch.

Buy HERE.

DIY Ideas Anyone?

This necklace is pretty much amazing.

I need a clever way to DIY this sucker STAT!

All I can think of are Bugles...my mind must be elsewhere.

I Do...

So this past weekend I had a whirlwind trip up to Santa Barbara for business...sort of.

I was asked to marry my friends!

They are getting married at the Santa Barbara County Courthouse and I had to fill out paperwork and get sworn in.

I am afraid I will laugh through the whole thing because it is sort of crazy and I laughed through my vows at my wedding. Hysterically laughed. (My husband kept telling me to breathe.)

Anyways, here is the beautiful courthouse where it will take place and the Mural Room where the ceremony will actually occur. Now I just have to start practicing because April 9th is sneaking up on me.

Designer Dining Room

I have been helping a girlfriend come up with ideas for her dining room in her new home. I thought maybe I would FINALLY try and put a moodboard together.

Had I known it was so simple, I might have started doing them sooner!

Soooo...what do you think?

Warm, worn, and slightly traditional = Heaven.

J. Crew Jollies

So apparently it has gotten around that I want to live in J. Crew.

I do not know what happened but their clothes have become more appealing to me in the last few months than I can tell you.

Well, so with my birthday I got a few gift cards and got to have a fun evening of carefree shopping. Besides a few basics like a long sleeve black sweater, basic tees, and some cream shorts, I also got the following...

This is your best old friend. It is perfectly worn in and has the bast faded electric blue color to go right along with it.

Sun-Drenched Sweatshirt

I needed a smaller and lighter colored chambray shirt to tuck into skirts and this one was it.

Crosshatch Chambray Shirt

How could I not?

Sequin Boy Tee

A basic that I got in black and white.

Sailor Sweater

This was something I never would have gotten on my own, but I was persuaded to try them on in the Vintage Miltary color and they are so light it feels like I have nothing on. SOLD.

Day Tripper Pant

My Lost Weekend

Picture via Dress Design & Decor

So even though it seemed that I slept my weekend away (I kid you not I slept pretty much all of Saturday venturing out of my bed only twice) I seemed to still get a lot accomplished.

I did a little work, FINALLY framed the beauty from my bestie Nicole over at Sketch 42 and my newest piece of art of my little puppa, engaged in cheese overload with a girlfriend, went to a birthday party, took care of my sick husband (I think my body is trying to fight it off - thus the massive amounts of sleeping), check out the designer collabs at Target, went grocery shopping (this rarely happens), and am trying to cooridnate a small get together of girls to wish our girlfriend CONGRATS before she gets married.

Maybe I was tired because I actually did all of that...
