Bling Research

Recently I purchased my wedding dress. 

Although the dress is uber important to me, I am obsessed with finding the perfect jewelry.

I am scouring Pinterest nightly trying to obtain information about the perfect statement piece.  I can imagine my obsession with finding this will not die down until I am blown away by the perfect (and affordable piece). 

 

 

 

Idol Bling

I knew I loved [idolized] Rachel Zoe, but this is ridiculous, on a complete other level.

While browsing for wedding jewelry, I came across the amazing art deco earrings I have featured before...low and behold, they are part of Rachel's Bergdorf's Collection. 

Of course they are. 

I mean. 

She has done it again, swoon.

New Arm Candy

Pretty excited about my uber 90's new Nixon watch.
Love their looks, hardware and tough, but girly style.

Top It Off

I was asked to help find a friend a fabulous hat for her pending vacation.  I own tons of hats, and often find myself purchasing more, coveting others, then I don't. really. wear. them. 
They make great wall art.

 

Here are a few of my current style obsessions...

7 months from today, I am getting married to the love of my life.  Can't wait.

 

Ideal Dinner

 

Last night, I had a girlfriend over for my favorite meal, cheese, crackers and a good bottle (2?) of wine.  The perfect cheese board consists of soft cheese, a yummy blue cheese and standard cheddar for the non adventurous with layers of .  And my adorable new macaroon napkins are a perfect accessory.

Life Lately

Life has been beyond crazy lately...working on special projects , starting new and creative outlets, planning the wedding and even making time for friends and family...

Here are images of things that make me smile currently.

 

A stolen iPhone can't bring me down, just means I have to replace those thousands of pictures with new ones.
