Happy Friday lovely readers. We've come to my favorite part of the week. Friday Favorites. This week it's all about those pretty little things we would have a hard time passing up.

How fabulous is this
or this
and this?
When I saw these that Hostess inside of me got giddy. How useful would these be at a large soiree for the holidays or a Wedding? After getting one of these you'll be spending your time gathering drink recipes.

Looking for a way to share your art, these stylish pin up frames will definitely work. Plus, there is no fuss when hanging your wall art. Forget wall art and use these as a decorative element in your wedding or next soiree.

Trendsetting Tuesday-Thigh High Boots
When it comes to boots I like the knee high size but thigh high is still growing on me. Instead of debating this trend I'll let a few photos do all the talking.
OK, I got a little side tracked by
Unlisted by Kenneth Cole Butter Pecan
and these Michael Antonio McKenzie boots aren't part of the debate either they're just lovely ;)

In the Details-Bold Baubles
>> Monday, October 26, 2009
If you haven't noticed by now, I like statement jewelry. What better time to make a statement than at your wedding with your own bold baubles. I loved the simply elegant gown by Vera Wang paired with this bold statement necklace and went in search of some other bold babules that could inspire you as well. Before we check out the photos, I should say that your search for statement jewelry can include some of your favorite stores.

Friday Faves Part Two
>> Friday, October 23, 2009
I couldn't resist. I had to do a second Friday Faves post. Enjoy.
Plenty of bloggers have talked about the loveliness that is Bambako, well I can't help but join the conversation and share some lovely headbands that can add that flair you may be looking for.
I think it's safe to say this Friday Faves post will be all about lovely accessories, so lets keep it going with this lovely Radcliffe Mirra clutch.
Show some of your sass with this i dare you bracelet from Kate Spade.
add a little character to your ensemble with this Twined Rockrose Necklace.
OK, this is it for today, have a wonderful Friday and weekend everyone.
Friday Faves-things for your home
Happy Friday everyone. This weeks Friday Favorites are lovely little things to fill your home.
If you're a typophile like me you will love this Sans Serif Typography Wood Wall Art by PepperSprouts as much as I do. While this item is sold out, keep checking the shop to see if they'll bring this lovely decorative piece back to the shop.

Addicted
I discovered I'm addicted to sweater coats. I noticed the issue as I was starting to transition fall/winter clothes into my closet. While I know I have a problem, that isn't going to stop me from sharing fabulous sweater coats. I may not be able to indulge but maybe you can.
like this Smitten Chunky Lambswool Sweater Coat
of this Shae Shawl Sweater Coat
While this is labeled a cardigan it sure looks like a sweater coat to me.
This hidden pocket long cardigan would also be perfect to dress up or dress down.
