I'm seriously smitten with these oil paintings by Chicago artist Karen Appleton. I happened to stumble upon the last painting on Patterson Maker's lovely tumblr and subsequently fell in love with the rest of Karen's work. The colors are so beautifully nuanced and the subject matter nothing short of girlish whimsy. For more information, check out her website and her blog.

Happy Weekend!

What a week! These are two of my favorite street style photos because, in addition to the super sleek black get-ups,  they seem so natural. We girls are always walking arm in arm, chatting about n'importe quoi. Go have yourself a happy weekend full of laughter and girl talk! Do you have any plans?

My Dream Studio

I can't get over the pictures of this dreamy studio designed by David Hicks for Australian fashion designer Alannah Hill. Exposed beam ceilings, whitewashed wood floors, and ultra-feminine fittings like chandeliers, velvet upholstery, and fresh flowers make this ideal inspiration for my dream studio. Wouldn't it be lovely to work in such a chic environment? Oh, the things I would accomplish!
