I’ve been blown away by all of the print in this years Spring 2013 collections so far. There are definitely stand out designers that pushed the limits and made some gorgeous pieces that will surely be on all of our must have lists. Maybe it’s the cutie son of hers or that she made this “Call Me Maybe” video, but Rebecca Minkoff really can do no wrong in my eyes. Spring 2013 obviously didn’t disappoint. I love the fresh, easy silhouettes paired with a more complex pattern throughout. This first look is killer.

Street style is always my favorite part of fashion week. Sure I wait with baited breath to watch videos of the runway shows, but it really interests me how the people attending the shows dress. It’s the best place to see everyone’s individual style in its greatest form. Here are some of my absolute favorites from this first week of NYFW. Stay tuned for a lot more, the weather is looking much better for week two!

Wedding Wednesday takes on a new meaning now that I’m engaged. When I look at wedding blogs like Style Me Pretty and Grey Likes Weddings (a new favorite), I can’t help but envision what our day will look like. You can take a look at my n&a board on Pinterest to see what I’m pinning along the way but here is my first wedding inspiration board, crazy huh?

Now that I’m engaged (still weird to say!), I was thinking I should start wearing more white. Our wedding may be far away but I want to feel comfortable in my dress. For someone who sticks to black, gray, and denim (with the occassional neon but I digress) it’s hard to imagine myself wearing pure white or more likely ivory. So obviously I need to get some white peices that I can slowly start working into outfits. I’m loving these as inspiration, and I think this is definately a great place to start on my road to the altar (still weird)!

Happy Friday! Our new apartment is the only thing that has been on my mind lately. It’s only a week until move in! I stumbled upon Plan Your Room and have been building our plan-o-gram ever since. It’s such a great resource and allows you to see exactly how your furniture, or potential furniture, will fit in your room. Since building the plan and buying quite a bit of furniture and accessories, I started making these inspiration boards for each room. A little inspiration can go a long way when moving! You’ve already seen my living room inspiration here and here, so now it’s time to focus on the bedroom and bathroom.

I realized a lot of things furniture shopping this weekend, but the one thing that stood out in my mind the most was that I love everything tufted… and I mean everything. Specifically, I find myself being drawn to tufted headboards. When I came home and took a look at my Pinterest, I noticed that there were tufted headboards all over the place. Apparently I knew I liked it long before I actually realized that I should be purchasing one ASAP. Check out my favorite headboards, they will definitely be a part of my inspiration board when I head back out again.

{To Do} Get Organized

I’m going to start off this post by admitting something. Sometimes, I’m a little overwhelmed. Okay… sometimes I’m a lot overwhelmed. When I’m feeling like I can’t possibly do one more thing without having some type of breakdown, I always stop to make a list. Russell & Hazel “to do” sticky notes have made my life a whole lot easier in that regard. But, I always feel like something is missing. I can’t consistantly have my work Outlook calendar in front of me (which is impeccably organized I might add) so I need to find a way to make that come to life. I need a planner and I need to organize that planner, stat. I stumbled across this first photo on Pinterest and knew what I had to do… gold mini binder and mini smartdate month tabs, please! Oh, and washi tape for extended projects and market weeks.

I breathed a sigh of relief as soon as the order went through. In a few short days I’ll be on my way to some serious organization. The planner will also look really cute on my desk (I’ve yet to pick this out, I’ll revert back later) in the new apartment. Maybe it will look like one of these for about two seconds… a girl can only hope!

I don’t typically wear shorts, even on the hottest of days. I have a feeling that this summer is going to be an exceptionally hot one though, as shown by this past weekends 90 degree Sunday. I took the plunge and ordered a pair of these boyfriend shorts from Gap, the neon pink pair to be exact. Funny thing was, my Mom also saw them online and bought me two pairs on the same day without knowing I had ordered the originals… love her! It was a good thing I liked them because now I couldn’t be more excited to have three pairs at the ready. They are not only the perfect length but the most comfortable shorts I’ve ever worn. Check out just a few of my favorite colors. The white ones will be mine very, very soon as well!

Wedding Wednesday: For The Bride

I’ve been obsessing, just a little, over floral halos on brides. Maybe it’s because I remember begging my parents to buy me one at the renaissance faire so that I could be a princess, or maybe it’s because I’m just obsessed with “bohemian” weddings. Don’t you want to run barefoot in a field just looking at these brides? I know I do!

It’s All In The Styling

Do you ever wonder why your house never looks like the makeover shows on TV or fashion bloggers houses when they are featured on other blogs? Well, it’s because of the styling. You might think that you can simply stack books on your acrylic coffee table or throw any matching pillow onto your couch, but that’s not always how it works. Some people have an eye for color, pattern, and size but other people may have to work on it. Here are some of my favorite examples of really, really good styling that don’t necessarily follow all (or any) of the rules.
