In the Details: Weddings and Shopbop
>> Monday, March 28, 2011
Happy Monday lovely readers. How was your weekend? I hope it was sunny and not rainy like mine. Because of the rainy weekend I had a lot more time inside and I was looking at the recently launched wedding boutique from Shop Bop and fell in love with a few of the dresses, specifically the collection Notte by Marchesa.
Beyond the pretty dresses, this wedding boutique launch got me thinking about weddings and retail chains. Recently a slew of retail stores (costco included) have jumped into the business of wedding dresses and I'm curious, what are your thoughts. Is there a point where enough is enough? or do you feel the more the merrier?

TGIF everyone. I hope you had a great week this week. With the nice weather this week I know I wanted to spend more time outside than inside. This week, I have a mix of favorites to share.
Even with everything being digital, I'm still a girl who loves paper, so I fell in love with all this paper goodness featured here, but am smitten with this
and this
Adorable is how to best describe these shoes

These have me thinking about Summer

As I've said before, sparkle and stripes get me every time

While there is plenty of pretty in this shop. These personalized birthday cupcake stands would be a perfect gift.

This and this are a perfect and stylish option to organize and store a few things, for me I'd start in my office.

Well that is all for this week. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I'll see you on Monday. Read more...

In The Details: Spring Inspired
>> Monday, March 21, 2011
Hello Everyone. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. After spending this weekend outdoors enjoying the beautiful Spring weather, I was inspired for this weeks In the Details post to talk about wedding details perfect for Spring. Of course the best place to start is with this dress.
after seeing this gorgeous dress featured here, I kept thinking this bloom inspired dress is perfect for a Spring wedding. If you're looking for more subtle ways to carry out a Spring inspired theme with your wedding attire think about adding a beautiful bloom head piece
or a simple bloom detail to your dress. Since Spring is all about color why not dress your wedding party in pretty pastels or striking bold colors.
Excite your guest with a lovely take on Spring through your invitations.
When it comes to decor why not make a grand, eye catching table scape inspired by the season
or keep it simple by featuring one flower style in creative ways.
Add in unexpected touches of Spring for your ring bearer and flower girls
Infuse Spring into your wedding menu
and design your cake to symbolize the season with plenty of beautiful blooms.
Any season inspired theme can be done in large or small detail. Just be sure that if you're thinking of designing your wedding with Spring as the theme, keep it true to your style.

For Japan With Love
>> Thursday, March 17, 2011
Tomorrow I will taking part in the Bloggers Day of Silence for Japan and will not post to this blog.
I am heartbroken over all the devestating footage I see as a result of the earthquake and tusnami in Japan. I knew I wanted to do something to help but wasn't sure just what to do. When the lovely ladies at Utterly Engaged and Ever Ours announced the Bloggers Day of Silence and their fundraising effort For Japan With Love for ShelterBox I knew I wanted to be involved.
If you were looking for ways to get involved, I hope you will join me. If you're a blogger join the long list of blogs participating in a Bloggers Day of Silence and/or contribute to For Japan with Love. Every action large and small helps tremendously.
Here's a bit more information about ShelterBox:
ShelterBox provide emergency shelter and lifesaving supplies for families around the world who are affected by disasters at the time when they need it the most. Each large, green ShelterBox is tailored to a disaster but typically contains a disaster relief tent for an extended family, blankets, water storage and purification equipment, cooking utensils, a stove, a basic tool kit, a children’s activity pack and other vital items-- via Utterly Engageged.
