Cheat Sheet {Online Magazines}
Please join me at From The Right Bank today where I'm sharing my opinion of each of the above online magazines. It looks like it's going to be an interesting conversation in the comments section!
P.S. Have you had a moment to read my brand spanking new "about" page? I'd love to hear what you think of my little biography — it's so hard to write about yourself!
Rise & Shine
I'm awake at an ungodly hour this morning — which for me means 8:15 — to tackle some work before the day truly begins. (Hey, I worked hard to get to senior year and be able to schedule my classes in the afternoon.) It made me think a) that I would much prefer to be curled up in this beautiful bedroom from the pages of Lonny, b) I'm grateful for coffee shop employees who understandingly offer an extra shot of espresso without me asking for it, and c) that waking up and seizing the day might actually be better than my usual night owl tendencies. What time does your alarm go off in the morning?
Kelly Wearstler, Blogger
That's right. Everybody's favorite out there interior designer adds a new title to her résumé with a brand new blog called My Vibe My Life. Created to share her creative process and personal photographs, the blog launched with a post about "vibe trays," the designer's three-dimensional version of the inspiration board. Compiling hardware, paint chips, fabric swatches, upholstery trim, Wearstler then stacks the trays in her L.A. showroom. If you're like me and have ever wondered how she pulls together such an eclectic mix of patterns and textures, it looks like we've got our answer. I look forward to reading more of her latest venture!
Happy {Stay Warm} Weekend
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?

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!
