Weddings in Rowboats

Well, I've been MIA for a bit. But, my recent love is weddings that incorporate rowboats into them. Don't know if I'd ever do this, as getting into a boat, so close to the water, while wearing a $1000 dress, seems like a bit too much...

Maybe I'm feeling nostalgic for the summer, as autumn comes, but rowboats are definitely looking like a nice way to relax and enjoy the rest of the summer.

Last of the summer, can't wait till autumn, and fall styles!

Club Monaco Fall 2011 LookBook

Received an email the other day about Club Monaco's Fall Collection. Loved the ethereal, bohemian vibe that it's got going on:

I love the lighting, etherealness, and the pop of tangerine. 

This is my next favorite. Again, the fairy-like quality from the lighting is so gorgeous, and I am loving the white.

I love this dress! The spots aren't too polka-dotty, and the colors are perfect for fall.

Also, loving this outfit. The skirt's color, and the scarf! Can't wait to wrap a warm-knit chunky scarf around my neck again instead of a jacket.

Check the new collection out, see what you think.

All images can be found at Club Monaco.

Amanda Nisbet

Just found this gem of an interior designer, Amanda Nisbet! Her work can be found here.

Here are some of my favorites:



I love the coral walls. And the dark-stained shelves. Gorgeous organization. 

This porch is great too. I love the purple ceiling. I can definitely imagine coming home after work, and relaxing here with a book and some raspberry lemonade. (I'd consider putting a screen up, to keep out the mosquitoes though).

Summer Fruit

OK, so church friends brought over organic blueberries that they picked yesterday, and that reminded me to get on the summer fruit kick. I love summer fruit. It's so yummy. A few of my faves:

Strawberries are delicious, and even more so when they're in the shape of hearts.

Peaches are probably my favorite fruit ever. And peach pie, in my very humble opinion, is the best pie ever. It's getting to be the season for peach picking, and I'm definitely ready to go!

OK, I lied, cherry pie is my favorite. And cherries are the best. Tart or sweet, it depends on my mood. I'm in the mood for buying a cherry pitter, actually...

What are your favorite summer fruits?

Japanese Simple Interiors

I love simple interiors. The Japanese definitely have it down to an art:


I love this bathroom! I would be lounging in it daily! Spa-like, it looks so calming and relaxing.

Reynaldo Gonzales

Reynaldo's apartment in New Orleans looks so modern and chic. I love this mirror in the room! The chandelier is great too.

Oh I love the colors of the wall here.

Gorgeous, gorgeous. The only thing is, doesn't make me think of New Orleans at all...
