Friday Loves

Happy Friday!!  It's been raining nonstop here in Houston, and the weekend doesn't look like it's going to clear up.  Since I'm lacking my much-needed Vitamin D from the sun, I'm a little scatterbrained.  Bear with me.  I decided for today's post I'd just share a little of the things I loved this week.  First off, this:


Show some respect to the grapes!

I'm also loving 2 Penny Blue- the new company founded by Erin Gates, the writer and interior designer behind Elements of Style.  2 Penny Blue features gorgeous chic blazers and jackets. What really appeals to me is the tailored fit of many of them- something that is hard to find for a 5'2" girl!  Even better, for every jacket purchased, a school uniform is donated to a girl in need in Africa.  This is my favorite- if only I had $275 to spare! 


This weekend, I plan to finally create a physical inspiration board in my home office extra bedroom.  My girl Lindsay over at Sadie & Stella has made it very simple by sharing a DIY and gorgeous photos of her own board.

I loved seeing Rue Magazine's co-founder Crystal Gentilleo show off her home on Apartment Therapy.  My favorite part was her bedroom.  So feminine and ethereal-




How great is that vintage Vogue print above her bed?  Gorgeous.
Have a great weekend, lovelies!

  3. Crystal's home is gorgeous! I love a studded fabric headboard.

    Making a inspiration board that you can touch makes redesigning seem more real than when the ideas are floating on your computer. Can't wait to see final product!
