ROYGBIV

Like your middle school science lesson...but better.

P.S. What exactly is indigo?

Quote Du Jour

"Leopard is my favorite color." I can never hear that enough.

Coffee Coffee Coffee

I inherited my parents' addiction to love of coffee and find ordering my drink and catching up on email to be the most delightful morning ritual. We have a charming coffee shop on campus but when I'm back home Starbucks very much does the trick. This lovely little café would be a perfect spot this chilly Monday morning! One grande vanilla skim two Splenda latté please ; ) Do you share my morning routine? What do you order?

Thank God It's Friday.

I was a less-than-stellar blogger today and yesterday and for that I apologize. It's been one of those weeks where there just aren't enough hours in a day. I'll be back in action come Monday and I hope to see you then. In the mean time, stay warm, let loose, and look good doing it!

Here's a little sneak peek of what I blogged about yesterday on the Rue blog. Please stop by if you haven't already!

Party Planning

I'm in the mood to plan a party. Not a fraternity function or a night on the town but a real event — a cocktail hour or a dinner party or, eek, a wedding! I watched a lot of wedding shows when I was home for the holidays and I can't get the idea out of my head. Keeping a busy calendar, focusing on the details, seeing my vision come to life — a future career path, perhaps?

Quote Du Jour

"Girls look beautiful when they feel beautiful."

Back To, Um, School

First day of classes! I'm giving myself a little leeway in this final semester and starting off with dance conditioning, a mix of pilates and yoga that counts as a half credit course! Now if only I looked as flawless as Miranda Kerr...

Style Icon {Taylor Sterling}

She's as cute as they come and embodies California cool to the max. Ladies and gentlemen, Taylor Sterling of Sterling Style! I love that she sticks to the classics (ahem, J.Crew) but works in trendier pieces like the maxi skirt above — and I'm seriously coveting her Rebecca Minkoff bag! What do you think of this California girl's laid-back look?

Blue & Yellow For The Boys

There is something surprisingly masculine about the combination of navy blue and rich yellow in these two spaces. Paired with gold accents and herringbone floors, these are the sort of spaces upon which a husband and wife might just agree.
