Simple + Chic: Jewelry from Andrea Bonelli Jewelry

Today I have the pleasure of sharing the work of Andrea Bonelli with you. Her simple but timeless handcrafted pieces are lovely, and, as an added bonus, they’re also eco-conscious.

Color Palette: Peach, Magenta, Blush Pink, Cream, Yellow

It’s been a chilly weather here! The past few days were all about icy winds and beautiful blue skies. It’s extremely cold and the only place you feel confortable is next to the fire. However, I love this time of the year – when I finally give up on Winter and start looking forward to [...]

Hello, Naomi: Style That Takes the Cake

To all my Australia readers, I’m incredibly jealous of you. Hello Naomi just launched her website showing off her new cake line. I’ve been a huge fan of her work for a while and was incredibly excited to see her launch a portfolio – especially not that she’s foraying into the world of wedding cakes! [...]

Cool Treats: Sweet Lucie’s Ice Cream Cart

Chalk this up as the strangest way to find great wedding details I’ve ever experienced.

The image with Penelope Cruz in that beautiful pink dress set the tone and that gorgeous [...]

Inspiration Board: Love in Wine Country

The first night of Hanukkah just over a year ago, an amazing man proposed to one of my oldest, dearest friends. Let’s call her “K.” K had to kiss a few frogs first, but she has certainly found her Prince Charming and I couldn’t be happier for her. K jumped right into wedding planning only [...]
