juxtapose i suppose

Here are some texture combinations for you to ponder for the day. I love the juxtaposition of mixing a cotton sweatshirt with lace, or a mesh long sleeve top with a bold, romantic statement necklace. 




Which is your favorite look?

snowy white kitchens

I love my small NYC apartment, but from time to time I miss having a big, spacious kitchen to cook in. I am loving the clean, crisp look of these white kitchens below - especially the first one that has an old fireplace and brass fixtures. Sigh, the large dinner parties will just have to wait.






What is your kitchen like?

melissa joy manning jewelry

I am loving these pieces from Melissa Joy Manning. They are handmade in her studio in Berkley, California. Just some pretty baubles to stare at on this lovely Sunday afternoon. The diamond 'nugget' ring is my fave.

SNOW DAY

I have been waiting to do this post forever! That random snow storm in November didn't count. Today is officially the first snow of the year, and "I'm in love, I'm in love and I don't care who knows it." 

These videos were taken last year - with the main actress being my sweet friend Rebecca - can't believe it was that long ago. My friends were attempting to teach me how to build a snow man in Central Park. I'll let you decide on how whether they succeeded or not.



Off to enjoy my snow day. 

Are you having a snow day today?
