LET'S GO THERE
The colors in these pictures are utterly breathtaking, no? Taken by photographer Steve Back, they showcase an aerial view of Hutt Lagoon in western Australia. The colors come from naturally occurring algae that have been concentrated into manmade lagoons. Pictures like this give me insane wanderlust! Have you traveled down under? What country or continent is next on your list?

NEW SERIES: FRIENDS WITH STYLE!
Calvin Klein jacket (similar) // J.Crew shirt // Swiss Army watch
Ralph Lauren chinos // Braided belt from Argentina (similar) // J.Crew desert boots
How cute is my friend Eddy? He's been my right hand man at Design Darling for a couple months now and when he showed up in this get-up earlier in the week I knew it was time for a new series on the blog. I can't wait to rope in a few more friends and keep the outfit posts coming! In the mean time, let's note everything Eddy's doing right: you can't go wrong with blue on blue, every guy should own these pants in every color, and desert boots are possibly the most versatile shoe offering since the equally beloved boat shoe. Bravo, my friend! Next up, my cousin and partner-in-crime, Emily. I hope you enjoy! :)

One of the projects I'm most excited to tackle in my apartment is assembling a gallery wall next to my desk. My friend Amy has the most beautiful little vignettes in her apartment (catch a glimpse here) and totally inspired me to start covering my bare walls with new prints, old maps, and random keepsakes. Anything you're coveting for your walls at the moment? Do share!

APARTMENT UPDATES
{Euro Style lamp, Design Darling topiary (back in stock!), Diptyque candle}
{Keeping my shoes away from Rory ;) Cole Haan loafers, Kate Spade heels, Elizabeth & James booties; Design Darling gingham tray and Ikea dresser}
{Jonathan Adler lacquer tray holding my favorite tinted moisturizer, mascara, and sunscreen}
I've crossed a few things off the apartment to do list but it's definitely still a work in progress! I'll continue to share bits and pieces on Instagram until it's ready to be photographed. How long did it take for you to make your first place feel like home? Tell me I'm not crazy for taking a few months to make everything just right ;)

OUTFIT {LITTLE BLACK DRESS}
Juicy Couture dress (available here in blue) // Design Darling bangle // Julie Vos stacking rings // Aldo heels
Number 59 on my 101 in 1001 list was to find a go-to LBD that could be dressed up or down for various occasions. This one has just the right amount of flounce (so important, right?!) and plays well with other basics in my closet like this and this. Have you found your perfect little black dress?
