I LOVE!


These Penguin Classics are ridiculously adorable! They would definitely brighten any room and with amazing titles like, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Emma, Treasure Island, The Odyssey, Lady Chatterley's Lover, Cranford, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Sense and Sensibility, Great Expectations, Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice they would make excellent gift also!

Gorgeous right?

Cleobella

This line of hand bags is fantastic and for a great cause. A percentage of all proceeds to go Care, an organization that fights global poverty. I personally have the clutch and the boho bag and love them both so help out a good cause and carry a cute bag!

ART!

These awesome prints are from Dear Colleen's etsy shop where everything is less than twenty dollars! She is so creative and I am dying over the gin and tonic print as well as the champagne print.

Diane Kruger

Seriously, Diane Kruger has amazing style. Although I love her red carpet style, this post is focused on her street style because she always looks put together and casual at the same time.

Igor + Andre

I am in love with this artist. He is from california and studied at Cal Poly as well as Academy of art SF. At just 23 years old he is wildly successful and talented so with out further adieu this is Igor + Andre.





His use of color and composition is beautiful! His work has been featured in US Elle, Vogue Brazil, Vogue Spain and WWD in print as well as multiple online sources.
Be sure to check out his website/blog

New music for you!

For those of you going to coach this year, here are some suggestions from me! These are seriously amazing bands and it would be tragic if you missed them.

Local Natives- buy the whole cd... just do it... its worth it

Beach House is perfect music for relaxation.
Victoria Legrand's voice is ridiculous


Dirty Projectors


Grizzly Bear


Spoon


Miike Snow




Packaging


I am working toward my degree in graphic design and many days I find my self lost in websites that feature design. Most recently it has been lovelypackage.com, a collection of amazing packages designed to perfection.
I would take this bottle everywhere

Pantone paint?! I need.

Bright colors and interesting bottles make for awesome design

The mugs in my kitchen are begging for hanger tea


The leaf lips logo is genius

Summer!

This amazing weather has me craving Summer time and everything that comes with it!

Ice cream galore yummmm



My family takes an annual weeklong trip to yosemite.
Summer would not be the same without it.


Who doesn't want to walk along the boardwalk with balloons
holding hands during the summer?


I can't wait to relax outside and this patio looks out of this world


During most Summer nights, my mom would serve dinner outside just as the weather started to cool off.
I would take this outdoor setting for dinner any day!

Diem Chau

Allow me to introduce you to an amazing fibers artist, Diem Chau, who received her BFA from Cornish college of the arts. All of her pieces are beyond inspiring but I am in love with the cups!

Her pieces are made from porcelain or ceramic with both silk and thread.





Check out her website and make sure you look at the sculptures from crayons... ridiculously cute.

Spring Coats

I think any of these coats would make my closet really happy!
(especially the Mulberry one)
