CAMERA RECOMMENDATIONS?

I've been using this camera since the semester I studied abroad and it's seen its fair share of wear and tear over the past couple years. I've been thinking about upgrading for the sake of better product shots for the boutique and better outfit posts for the blog. I'm dying to know if any of you have DSLR cameras you'd recommend!

Ideally I'm looking for something that takes great pictures, doesn't weigh a ton, and looks good with a pretty camera strap ;) Suggestions? Ready, set, go!

ADORE HOME MAGAZINE

I'm absolutely thrilled to announce a little feature in this month's issue of Adore Home Magazine. Adore is a digital interiors magazine based in Australia and chock full of the most colorful interiors you ever did see. Without further ado...

That's me! I was asked to share some of my spring favorites (since it's the end of winter down in Australia!) and I chose this Katie Maennle chair, the coral candelabra from my boutique, a Chance Co. boatneck tee (I absolutely live in mine), this Kate Spade bag, and a stack of recycled leather notebooks from Kate's Paperie. Psst, check out some of my favorite spreads in the issue:

The bedding and the X bench are seriously unreal. How fabulous is that shade of green?

You know I have a slight obsession with topiaries and this one looks like an oversized version of this one in my boutique!

This is definitely a bold color scheme but I love the mix of solid color pillows and the fabulous fretwork cabinets! Find more colorful inspiration by reading the entire issue here and huge thanks to Loni at Adore for the wonderful feature!

MARINA LARROUDE ON THE COVETEUR

Colorful, check. Elegant, check. Makes me want to shop, check. I would expect nothing less from a home tour of Style.com's market editor!

How dreamy is this vignette? The art reminds me of this post on blowing up travel photos. You could easily recreate the look with a shot of Versailles!

Can we discuss this closet? Marina says she reorganizes it every Saturday... a habit I would do well to adapt!

The printed pants remind me of something Devon Haire would create and the pink shoes remind me of this ASOS pair from Wednesday's post.

How darling are her Chanel pearls with their little bows? Too sweet for words.

I'm definitely envious of her book collection as well (although I did place not one but two orders for new coffee table books on Joss & Main last week!).

And the perfect shoe closet to finish things off. How's that for a little weekend eye candy?!
