Between magazines, Instagram, Pinterest and the blogosphere, there’s WAY too much out there to keep track of all the eye candy that blows up my shorts, so when I see it, I screen shot it. And it usually gets swallowed up by the big black hole that is my phone, and then goes to die with thousands of its friends on the island of misfit photos. But let’s resurrect some of those pretty little things, shall we?
I’ve never been able to keep my wits together around Adam + Viktoria pillows – sold through Mecox (view all the pretty pillows over on Lisa Fontanarosa’s website). They are luscious and so exquisitely made – velvet appliques on linen. #nomnomnom
No, I’m not in the market for a sparkler… but I am totally loving Andee Layne’s OPI “Don’t Pretzel My Buttons” nude polish for summer.
Cursive “love” ring from Pigment – a sweet little gift-y shop in North Park (San Diego). Hey. It’s a place holder.
The aqua tile with the gold inlay from Exquisite Surfaces (Laguna Showroom, to the trade only). Le sigh.
Best / easiest way, ever, to cook salmon: wrap a salmon steak (tightly) in aluminum foil with a few lemon slices, a few pads of butter, and then I usually sprinkle a little fresh dill, salt & pepper on it. Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Comes out perfect EVERY time.
The softest, prettiest linen I ever did see at the Becky Walker Showroom… also to the trade only. I’m a total slut for even putting it on here.
If you don’t follow her on Instagram, you should. I mean. I think she was a tickle in her mom’s drawers when I was graduating high school, but this little fashionista is wise and fashion-forward beyond her years. Great daily dose of style. She’s also so stunning it’ll make you wanna barf.
O&L’s Japonerie wallcovering, via Alex Kaehler’s Insta. Love it. I just ordered samples and they’re even lovelier in person. Also comes in a pale silvery-and-white colorway that is TO DIE.
The best-smelling hairspray that ever lived, says my college bestie Mary.
Cassandra LaValle aka Coco Kelley couldn’t set an ugly table if she tried.
Karrie swears by this. I *^%$ hate foundation. But she put this on me, and then I didn’t hate foundation anymore.
Can’t wait to try it.
Dying to rent it.
Just scored this vintage Stroheim fabric on eBay. I have no idea what I’m going to do with it, but I couldn’t help myself. More yardage here.
Perfect little summertime staple for the pool. No longer online but available in Zara stores.
Keeping the sun off my face with this happy hat I nabbed at Marshall’s for a song. It’s a nice pop of pigment since my wardrobe (including the bikini I’m living in this summer – not this one) is white, white and white.
I need Santa to bring these to me immediately.
Long live the 90’s! These are amazing.
That’s all I got! Happy Hump Day! PS: I hate to brag, but my Pinterest boards are killer. Are you following me yet? …you should be.
xoxo,
