Something Fresh


I have a really busy schedule this week, but I've been craving really fresh food, so I went to the store today and stocked up on avocados, lemons, limes, tomatoes and I am thinking that one day this week I will try to make this salmon recipe for dinner. It looks so good!

Check out the recipe here, on Laylita's recipes.

Mother's Day Weekend



Usually, I always go home for Mother's day, but this year it is right in the middle of work craziness, so there isn't any way I can escape for the weekend. Since I can't be with my mom on Mother's day I will be sending lots of love her way + some flowers.

I miss sitting around our breakfast table having brunch and sitting in the living room with my mom reading magazines. Can't wait for a trip home, hopefully next month!

I'm pretty sure no matter how old I get, I will always love coming home to my parents house.

Do you Believe...




... in fairytales?

As I have settled into my week, I have finally had time to take in the wedding of Prince William and Katherine Middleton. I have to say that it is one for the books. She did everything right, and nothing was out of place. From her perfectly designed, Alexander McQueen dress to their cake, Middleton didn't disappoint the many viewers who watched the Prince and, now Princess exchange their vows.

Again, Congratulations to the sweet couple! They look truly happy and truly in love.

The wedding looked like a fairytale. A true fairytale.

A Little Elegance






Designer, Katie Ermillo lent her home and studio for this shoot with model, Rosie Tupper. I love the elegant design and the wide open studio space with old hardwood floors and her clothing pieces go right along with her home. They are structured, detailed, yet they aren't fussy. There is a simplicity to them that lends a certain amount of grace. Love it.

Prints & Lucite



I love an array of prints and I even love the lucite chair, that I would originally view as a little modern for my taste... but, somehow this look works. Everything is tied into each other in different ways. The chairs, table, light fixtures and artwork are all different styles, different backgrounds, different colors, but they all compliment each other very nicely. What do you think?

Feeling Overwhelmed...


Do you ever have those days when it seems like you can't get anything done and you have a thousand things to do. Well, I am having one of those days! But, that's the way it goes sometimes...

As I melt back into reality I have to say, that I like it much more than I like Vegas! But, a weekend with your best friends is priceless.

Happy Monday, everyone!
