It sounds like some of you are battling the same wintry weather I am this week so I'm sending warm wishes your way! Let's hope both of us can keep cozy and look this good doing it. Happy weekend!
Get The Look {Joe Schmelzer}
I adore this living room photographed by Joe Schmelzer and rounded up a list of lookalike resources in case you love it as much as I do. What do you think?
Presenting Ruby Plaza
I wanted to take a moment to introduce you to one of my lovely sponsors, Ruby Plaza. Similar to Etsy in terms of scope, Ruby Plaza features over 2,000 sellers who specialize in home decor and jewelry. Whether you're looking for something specific or just care to browse, you're sure to find something you love!
Rue Does NYC
Monday night was spent meeting my new friend Roxy for dinner and drinks at an adorable Italian restaurant in Greenwich Village. This girl is a kindred spirit in every sense of the word — enviable style, delightful sense of humor, and shared excitement for wherever life takes us next!
Then we hailed a cab to meet up with the Rue crew at The New Traditionalists' showroom in Soho. I was so thrilled to meet Ashlina for the first time! Here we are with Anne, Rue's creative director.
It was so nice to catch up with Bri and Crystal, who with Anne are the brains behind the Rue operation.
Roxy and I had a hilarious conversation with Talis of V and M that included sharing pictures of his safari adventure (talk about a dream come true!).
At night's end, I met my boyfriend at Grand Central, only to discover this madness...
...because Russell Brand was filming a remake Arthur!
It was such a special night and I feel so blessed to have met big-time bloggers and darling readers in person for the first time. I am incredibly fortunate to have Rue Magazine in my life; to know that I'm contributing in even the smallest way to such a wonderful publication is a blessing that words cannot do justice. To Anne, Bri, and Crystal: you girls are fun, inspiring, stylish, unique — and know how to throw a party like nobody's business!

UPDATE: For those who asked, my dress is this sale number from J.Crew!
Black & White Beach
These two pictures have me yearning to escape the chilly Pennsylvania winter and head for warmer climes. What's the weather like where you are?

Jil Sander Spring 2011
It might be yesterday's news in the fashion industry, but Jil Sander's spring collection is everything I want to wear this upcoming season: whites, pinks, navy; ruffles, solids, stripes. If, that is, it ever warms up around here!

I'm A Winner And So Are You!
Big thanks to Sara Kate of Dwelling & Design, Victoria of vmac+cheese, Annie and Elizabeth of The Now Stylebook, and Allie of Desire Design Delight for gifting me with the Stylish Blogger Award! I'm supposed to share seven things about myself and pass it along to ten more people but I can't think of seven surprising things and truthfully I hate to choose so I'm going to do this instead:
1. If you'd like to learn more about me, head here or here (or simply stay tuned for my about page!).
2. If you're so inclined to reveal seven things about yourself, consider yourself a winner! I would love to see your posts so simply comment with a link here once you've posted.
Thank you, ladies!
Signature Scent
No. 74 on my 101 in 1001 list is to find my signature scent. Doesn't that seem like something every young lady should know? I feel silly for not having one and never replaced my last bottle when it ran out. Of course it seems like a fairly frivolous task but in reality I imagine it might be rather daunting. Tell me, what is your preferred perfume?

Shake It Like A Polaroid Picture
I cannot for the life of me remember where I found this picture but I do know I'm very much in favor of taping hundreds of polaroid snaps within a larger-than-life frame. Can you imagine family and friends stopping to stare at each of the photos? The display would be truly mesmerizing!
