Day Dreaming: Carrie in Paris

It's all sloshy and grey today in Seattle, and it has me thinking about frolicking around Paris in a black trench and staying (somewhat) dry with a pretty umbrella...

How perfect, then, is this shot of SJP (aka Miss Carrie Bradshaw) with her sleek stiletto boots and perfectly coiffed 'do??

Looking forward to cozy fall days, but hoping for a little more summer...

Hope it's sunny and warm where you are!

Ciao!

Weekend Mugs

We have a little tradition in our house... we really love our morning coffee, and to make it feel super special on the weekends, we use our favorite mugs. These aren't just any mugs, mind you... these were packed home very carefully from a trip to Florence (to where we had travelled with just backpacks!!).

This weekend, these lovelies will stay in the cupboard until Sunday, because we are shooting a fabulous wedding on Saturday!

And, for fun, a few favorite things from this last week...

*A gorgeous equestrian-inspired shoot from one of my favorite wedding photographers, Jose Villa... so dreamy.

*Love this shot by The Sartorialist, via A Cup of Jo...

*The new Nordstrom website is up and running... so much prettier than the old one...

*So thankful for the love from Made by Girl (Thank You, Jen!!:)...

*A beautiful Colorado wedding by Australian photographer Jonas Peterson featured on Once Wed...

*And my favorite French girl, Garance, moved to NY!! Fun to see through her eyes...

Okay, goodness... I'm sure I missed something amazing, but hopefully this will get you off to a good start for your weekend reading.

Happy Friday, Lovelies!!

White & Black...

...and some artful pops of color have me swooning over this Manhattan abode. When we lived in New York, our home was a 380-square foot, 6th-floor walk-up. Imagine - having all this light and space and even live plants - what a dream!!

I'm absolutely obsessed with that breathtaking rug pictured above, and the fireplace below is perfection...

I'm inspired... off to redesign my living room. ;)

Take Me to Paris!

I just bought this sweet little sweater for Audrey from Gap Kids' American in Paris line, and they had me so tempted to buy the little matching beret and skinny jeans...

Then, I came home to find the newest Travel & Leisure in our mailbox with - you guessed it - Paris as the cover story!!

I've only been to Paris once, but oh man, I wanna go back!! Time for those French classes I'm always talking about, no??

Domino Inspiration: Part VI

These arrangements are a perfect mix of seasonal flowers, berries on the vine, and richly hued color combos... love how they all start with an interesting container, too! I might try my hand at this first one...

And this next one, since we have grapes in our backyard...

Happy Monday!
