Awww I Wanna Have a Craft Party with MY Friends! (That's Me Whining)

These gorgeous and fun ladies..

... yep these ones right here, are the creative minds behind two of my favorite sites: Sitting in a Tree & Enjoy Events Co. What do they do? Why, they make pretty weddings possible. 

Anyhoo, these wonderfully feminine pics are from their "Kate Spade-esque" craft-party photo shoot where they brainstormed all things wedding, party, and girl. Let's have a moment of silence for the prettyness shall we?

"We think that where you live and how you decorate your home really gives us an idea of your overall style and who you are as a person." 

God I love being a girl. 

Prepping for the shoot.

Oversized

Trust when I say I am still all about anything and everything summer, but a part of me is starting to crave the comfy and cozy oversized sweaters I never really change out of come fall.

Closet-Envy Moment of the Day

I'm still not over how much I love these BlueFly Closet Confessions so you're stuck with another mother-of-all closets to drool over; this time coming from Real Housewife of Beverly Hills Kyle Richards. Enjoy. 

Sometimes I Just Like Staring At Girly Things

"A few lucky women have been born with style - but for most of us, style is something that comes with time and experience. Above all style begins with a sense of who you are and your self-confidence. Style comes from opening yourself to the world around you - to book and movies, art, music, travel and especially to other people." - Kate Spade

"Grow Old With Me, The Best is Yet to Be"

I want to wish a happy 23rd wedding anniversary to my mom and dad. As I get older I've really learned to appreciate and respect marriage and the work my mom and dad put into theirs. Every time I see them laugh together, tease each other, or even hug, I remind myself how lucky I am to have had the greatest example of what love is all about right in front of me for twenty-one years. I will never settle for anything less than what they have taught me a marriage should be. 

Love you both!

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMM HI

Halston has had some major company drama this last year. The 70's brand made a major comeback after Sarah Jessica Parker became President and Chief Creative Officer, but in the last couple months Parker, CEO Bonnie Takhar, and other major Halston investor Harvey Weinstein have all left the company without really a word as to why. Rut-roh. 

So while we don't know why the brand took such a sudden turn for the worse, there is one thing clear: they sure do make one hell of a clutch.

This single-word statement graffiti was found painted on a number of different surfaces in London, England. Whether it was political, symbolic, or had any meaning at all was a mystery to all. Not quite the four-letter-word you'd expect to see cropping up if somebody made a hobby of vandalizing the city with spray paint. Personally I kind of like the mystery behind it.
