Love it!

I just saw this the other day at a little shop and love it! Ork Posters has been making the neighborhood posters below that I have also been drooling over, but being from Michigan I have to get my hands on this one!

Cupcake Cravings

Just some images reflecting the cupcake craze that's been going on for the last couple of years! They are everywhere! I wish I had kids to take to the cute little bakeries all over Chicago.

It's not always stylish being green

But this Manhattan couple have pulled it off! I came across this apartment on re-nest and fell in love with the amount of greenery in their home! My favorite smell is fresh cut grass- can you imagine waking up to that?! They've created some great spaces. Take a gander...

Production at Greet Design!

I've been putting together some wedding invitations for a couple celebrating in Mexico! Check out the fun colors they chose for their invites. The invitation is a folder of information for the guests to travel with. I love the rich "night" colored folders and poppy color- they compliment each other so well! The simple floral design continues onto the back of the envelope.

Pumpkin Fever!

I am a huge fan of pumpkin, so fall is perfect for me! Here are some recipe's I have been browsing lately. Join me for a fall fiesta!

Photography Sole

Not only do I want the mary janes from the new Marais USA collection, but I want to know the photographer of their product! It's such a simple display that makes you want to look more.

Caught up in Ruffles

I just found these great pieces at Kate Towers etsy shop! I can't believe the detail in all of her work. Enjoy!

Clean Seat

I love the clean soft lines of this chair. I keep trying to use it in all my projects, but it's a little pricey so it get's substituted every time. I need a big spender client!!

One Year!

My husband and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary this past weekend! We traveled home to northern Michigan, left the puppy with my parents and got a room at Bay Harbor, Mi. If you have never been there, it's definitely worth the trip! It's a development with it's own zip code, boutiques, restaurants, a marina, golf course, equestrian club... We watched the sunset from our balcony, had an amazing dinner and caught up with some old friends. It was really nice to spend some time alone at home. Here are some pictures from our trip!

our thawed wedding cake- still good!

The "not so high" Heel

I am looking for new mary janes to wear with tights in the fall and winter! It's so hard to find a cute pair that I can wear all day without taking them off and wearing my winter boots for the rest of the afternoon! Oh and did I mention it needs to be within my budget too. (which is getting hard these days) We all know that the Chicago winters can take a toll on your boots and they are not acceptable office attire. Here is a great heel height that looks so nice and sturdy! The search is over. Find them at piperlime.
