Thank You, Ryan Feerer

My friend recently passed along the Horse In The Sea record and I was immediately taken by the artwork. Ryan Feerer [designer and illustrator] creates such charming things and I couldn't help but smile when I visited his site this morning to find this happy design [above] with the words "You are beautiful, seriously, you really are..." at the top. Thank you Ryan Feerer, for bringing me a smile this morning. More of his fun creations below.

Vintage Home Interiors

I really don't need to say much because these pictures speak for themselves! The American Vintage Home Collection is fabulous and always makes me smile. These are some of my favorites today from the 1940s interiors. The pictures ranges from 1900-1960 and include various styles including Art Deco, Modern, Mid-Century and more. I could spend hours digging around here for inspiration!

[Fashion] To A Tee

You can find a perfect array of tees this season... from racer-back tanks to plunging v-necks, scoopnecks to camisoles. With all these options, it's easy to find the right silhouette for your body! I love the just-got-out-of-bed look, and the tee helps pull this off flawlessly. Most of my favorites come from American Apparel (they are sooo comfy), but you can find fun looks from Alexander Wang, C&C California, Urban Outfitters, Rag & Bone and more. The tee is a staple item, so it's essential to have plenty of different looks!

To A Tee

Make sure to find the right fit. The most popular tees right now are very flowy, they don't hug your body. Give yourself some breathing room and mix it up a bit with stripes, turquoise and plunging necklines, or it's always safe to stick with the classic white tee.

Aimee Sicuro

Ooooh! I have a new love... these darling prints from Aimee Sicuro, a brilliant San Francisco-based artist and illustrator. Notice my love of bicycles carrying over into this post, too?

Busy, Busy, Busy!

I hate missing a day blogging {or two for that matter}, but this week has been absolutely nuts! It's a big music week here in Nashville where lots of artists and industry people get together for interviews, meetings, showcases, concerts, etc. On top of all the craziness from the work side of things, I also designed the set for an awesome company called HearItFirst. They are hosting various artist and band video interviews throughout the week, and even though it was a little hectic, I had such a blast helping out!

Thanks to Candace from SparklePower for the wonderful fabric banner!

[Fashion] Cold Shoulder

I am smitten with the one-shoulder trend! It is a subtle and sexy way to show some skin this season, while still remaining tasteful and mysterious (remember Michelle Obama's gorgeous inaugural ball gown?). I love that you can take so many different approaches with it - think: classical, romantic, bohemian, retro, preppy.

This sassy look will instantly update your wardrobe. I'd say stick with the one-shoulder dress, but the one-shoulder tops can be equally dramatic. This trend has been seen all over the runways and red carpets and is a must-have in my book. Below are some of my favorite (and inexpensive!) picks from ASOS:

Fashion Friday: Cold Shoulder

What do you guys think about this look?

Five Days In Paris

My dear friend Katie just got back from a trip to Paris... with beautiful Holgas to show for it. I am crazy about these inspiring photos and just want to tack them all over my walls! I posted so many, I just couldn't pick a favorite!

An Organized Collection

I'm a firm believer in everything being in its perfect place. I drive my husband crazy just organizing the throw pillows on the couch. So of course I adore this "organized collection" group on Flickr. It's nice to know I'm not the only crazy one out there...


How We Say Hello


Delightful photographs from How We Say Hello.

Colors & Details & Charm, Oh My

Oh my... this is just too amazing! Holly Becker of decor8 has found the most gorgeous guest house in Holland. The Bed of Flowers B&B is just bursting with happiness, no? I can't get over the pretty floral designs and cheery colors.
