Mix Tape: Nuetral Milk Hotel

2012-03-07T01:00:00.000-08:00

Neutral Milk Hotel: Holland, 1945

This is one of many songs that has personally struck me, something I couldn't stop thinking about. The lyrics are emotional and powerful, almost too much.

"And it's so sad to see the world agree
That they'd rather see their faces fill with flies
All when I'd want to keep white roses in their eyes"

Check out this super sweet tutorial for making your own Chanel pearl hairpins. The tutorial looks like it could be simplified even further by gluing the pearls straight onto the pins, skip that wire! Anyways- would love to try it :)

A Boho Friday

2012-03-02T01:30:00.000-08:00

Some boho wedding inspiration. How about a bohemian event with fizzy strawberry lemonade, a band that springs up amongst the guests and sweet little packets of wildflower seeds for gifts? :)

For Tiny

2012-03-01T01:00:00.000-08:00

I'm not usually a fan of quilts (I'm very particular about my snuggling devices) but these baby quilts are something I'd consider investing in, even without the baby. How rad are these maps of San Francisco and Paris? There are several other cities to choose from over at Haptic Labs :)

Cheese Crafting

2012-02-28T07:29:00.000-08:00

I stumbled across an etsy shop, Urban Cheesecraft, that only sells DIY kits for making your own cheese! The shop claims it only takes one hour and a gallon of milk! I'm actually pretty excited to try it. Would you make your own cheese?

Spectacles Every Day??

2012-02-27T03:00:00.000-08:00

Do you wear your glasses every day? I wear mine most days, and rarely wear my contacts. I love that they are becoming more of a fashionable accessory than something closer to an embarrassing retainer head piece. Do you wear yours every day?

p.s.
my favorites from Warby Parker :)

I'm Here for Your Job, via Rachel Zoe Fall 2012

2012-02-20T03:00:00.000-08:00

I secretly fantasize about showing up to work dressed to kill. How fabulous to be an engineer in the city, wearing Rachel Zoe to work? Oh it's just another day at the office, wearing my fresh off the runway ready-to-wear looks. Sigh

A Marchesa Wedding

2012-02-17T04:11:00.000-08:00

Confession: the idea of a big wedding, or a wedding at all has always made me a bit uneasy, yet I love, love, looovvee collecting beautiful wedding ideas. Love the gowns, the decorations and the creative photography (just to name a few).

When I saw the new Marchesa line I immediately pictured them as fabulous, over the top wedding gowns. These are only a handful of the Fall 2012 ready-to-wear pieces debuted at New York Fashion Week. And how fabulous they are!

Domestic Trend: Anthropologie

2012-02-16T06:10:00.000-08:00

Moving is not one of my favorite things but after the driving and the unpacking comes the settling. What better way to nest than bold colors, unusual pieces and huge, fluffy blankets?
