Ok so I have a new obsession with anything mirrored... First,  it started off with furniture. I bought this chest for my new apartment and I'm just itching in my skin for its delivery.  Then I discovered entire dresses made from mirrors! If it's cool enough for Lady Gaga is cool enough for me. Thakoon makes these booties and I swear it takes everything I've got not to buy these. Sadly,  I can't think where on earth I would wear them... Maybe Vegas?

Whimsical Elegance














// Images via Pinterest //
I am utterly in LOVE with these whimsical, elegant, and elaborate gowns. These dresses are wispy and feminine almost taking on the form of angel wings and certaintly look as though they have come from some heavenly place. All I know is, if I could wear just one of these confectionary-like delights I would think I had died and gone to heaven...

Champagne/Taupe Striped Walls











I recently found out my cousin Katie is expecting a baby! Not having a sister of my own, naturally I feel like I'm a soon-to-be an Auntie! We were emailing back and forth about nursery ideas and one really stood out to us: champagne and taupe striped walls. This idea is brilliant for a baby's room because it's neutral. Adding a touch of blue or pink can also make the room gender specific without having one color overpower the room.  Walls with bold patterns patterns can make a big statement but the champagne/taupe color really softens the stripes and makes them baby appropriate. This is a brilliant idea and I'm dying to try this out. Maybe a random wall in my house will get a makeover this weekend....

I cannot tell you how obsessed I have been with chevron lately. I've been seeing this zig-zag line pattern everywhere and in the most unexpected places. It has such a presence and can completely make a room. It's the perfect venue for a bright color and can make an outfit without much need to accessorize. It's bold, daring, modern and fabulous!
