olivia

I recently posted a picture of them here, but here's a quick clip of the full moment - Olivia Palermo dancing with her beau. 


They are just beyond adorable/gorgeous together.


I'm all for random park dancing sessions - especially those that take place in Paris. *Sigh.

So glad it's Friday and almost the weekend. 




Fun ombre DIY project here.

Currently loving this song by Mike Snow (thanks Allyce!)-

Wooden watch anyone?

Interesting article on chocolate.
Um, of course that's why I've been eating it this whole time. 

Find fun facts about your birthday.

they're back...

And I'm in LOVE!

Glitter me some Miu Miu's please...

the look this time last year

Sorry Dorothy, who needs the shoes when you can have these glasses? 




Not gonna lie the more subdued color from last season is more my style, but for those who dare - I don't see why you couldn't choose these to wear. (I just had to rhyme!)


What pair of sunglasses are you coveting for summer?

PS - also loving the tortoise shell ones here

veja tennies

Since spring is just around the corner I can't help but start day dreaming about my new spring shoes, but these are not what you're thinking of. A springy selection of sandals to come. For now, I am in love with these cute boat shoes made by the French company Veja. They look like they belong on a sailboat. Pair with cute distressed jeans, a simple white tank and some tortoise shell sunnies and you're ready for warmer days. They are even eco-friendly, made from organic cotton and wild Amazonian rubber.





I want these!! Love the red. 

What's your go to summer tennis shoe style?

michelle armas

I'm looking for the perfect piece of artwork to go above my bed. I have an idea in mind, but will keep it a secret until it's perfectly in place. I would love a pretty, white tufted headboard, but all in good time. Maybe during the summer I can DIY one on my roof. As of now, there is no room to construct any sense of a headboard in my apartment, thus I might as well paint away. I am loving these Michelle Aramas paintings at the moment. They are free spirited and full of color - just like a breezy spring day - sigh.







What do you have above your bed? 
Headboard, art, rien?

leopard jeans

Remember my post on TTH's apartment here? Ever since seeing her standing in her kitchen in those leopard jeans I have decided that they are a necessity for life (or at least for now;). I know they're a bit of a trendy item, but trends are fun from time to time. As long as you keep the rest of your look simple and chic, this trend will go a long way. 






Leopard jean shopping page tomorrow.

Would you ever wear leopard jeans?

summer sun

I love the days when you know summer is coming. I know I'm skipping spring - but I can't help it. The sunlight streaming into our office today made me so happy! I decided to be inspired and pick my favorite reflective metal...perfect for the sun to heat up!








Happy Wednesday!

watermelon tod's

Ahhh! I love these Tod's by Jefferson Hack's lace up boots. The color is appropriately called watermelon. Sadly, they are currently sold out! Maybe they'll get more in soon...

jefferson hack tod's suede desert boots, $545

First fell in love with flat lace up boots after I tried on these leopard Steve Madden boots. Paired with skinnies they are adorable. Trust me!

steve madden damiann, $89.95
(I feel like the angle is a bit odd and the toe looks
uber long, but trust me it's normal.)

Would you wear flat, lace up boots?

beach ready

Who can say no to strapless? Don't get me wrong - I'm a full fledged advocate of bikinis, but some of these one pieces are gorgeous. I mean, NGL (not gonna lie) I want to just pair some of these with a gorgeous skirt and head out on the town...

camilla & marc, $240
zinke, $132
yves saint laurent, $750

tori praver, $145

miu miu, $245

jets, $315

norma kamali, $350

Although I don't have any beach vacays planned just yet. All I can say is I plan to have at least one of these in my suitcase when I do.

Would you wear a strapless one piece?
