An Announcement

2012-09-10T08:30:00.000-04:00

Well, lovely readers I am delighted to announce that Pretty Little Things is moving to a new blog home at Scratch Paper Studio. I sure hope you will join me and make the switch as all the pretty things I talked about here and much more will be shared on my new blog. For several months I've been dividing my time between my stationery studio site and this blog and decided it was time to combine these two entities into one.

Starting today posting here will begin to decrease as I start to transition this blog over to it's new home. As I begin this process I hope you will join me. I will be sharing plenty of Pretty Little Things here

Happy Friday everyone. I hope you had a wonderful week. Whenever a holiday starts off the week it always throws me off my schedule and I spend the weekend getting back on track. Well before heading out to enjoy the weekend, my favorite for this week is the Z Spoke Spring Collection by Zac Posen. The color, pattern and ladylike charm of this collection just has me smitten. Here's a sampling and you'll see why.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone. I'll see you next week.

Thursday Purse Day-Totes

2012-09-06T09:39:00.000-04:00

I'm a girl who loves a pretty tote bag especially in the fall. I can stuff all my things in that bag and also a smaller purse for any after work social gatherings. Instead of posting just one bag I thought why not do a round up of one of my favorite bags, the one that totes everything I need for the day. I've developed a little crush on this lovely tote from Burberry and it serves as this weeks inspiration.

Now on to my mini round-up of my favorite type of bag.

Hello everyone. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Isn't this photo gorgeous? I'm hoping the beautiful details of this wedding gown will suffice while I take a blog break. I'm working on a few new things for the blog so while I'm away if you need a pretty little things fix, you can find me posting here and here. If there is a post I've talked about on this blog that you want to see more of, let me know in the comments. I'll see you next Monday.

Hey J Crew,

I can't help but notice that you're trying to tempt me with pretty fall lovelies, while I'm still trying to enjoy the last days of Summer. Well... it's working.

If this isn't enough, then there's the Collection full of color and pattern and pretty textures that has me ready to fold up the maxi dresses, sandals and such for colorful layers of loveliness like this.

I don't think you're playing fair.
*Happy Friday and happy weekend everyone. I'll see you next week.

Happy Monday everyone. I hope you had a great weekend. The tail end of the week had me traveling for a quick trip to DC. Now fully rested from a busy traveling schedule, today's in the details post has me thinking about out of town guest who fly in for your wedding. While there are plenty of ways to make them feel welcomed, a lovely bag of goodies always does the trick.

Whether you pick a theme or fill a bag with well known favorites from your wedding city, there are plenty of creative ways to welcome guest and let them know you're glad they're here. I hope this collection of photo inspiration sparked some ideas.

Happy Friday everyone. I hope you had a marvelous week. This week flew by and I can't believe it's already August. I have to confess August is my favorite month because I'll be celebrating a birthday but Summer is moving way too fast. Well, before we all head out and enjoy our weekends, how about a few favorites? I thought I'd kick everything off with pretty dots. How lovely is this dress?

[discovered here]

Loving these wedge sandals, I think they would go perfectly with that dress.

While this pretty necklace may not go with the dress, it's a lovely accessory for a little black number in your closet.

Of course you can see why this would be a favorite of mine.

How cute is this quirky satchel.

Well, that's all for this week. Have a wonderful weekend everyone, I'll see you here next week.
