Haven Vintage
I'm so excited to introduce you all to my newest sponsor, Haven Vintage! Owner and curator Colleen is a total sweetheart who describes her gorgeous home decor offerings as "simple, stylish, casual, vintage!" Indeed her shop is brimming with antique brass figurines (like the darling little quail above!) and charming milk glass finds. Vintage lamps and matching bookends are all reasonably priced as well. Affordable, charming, and undeniably chic, Haven Vintage is the perfect place for "one for you, two for me" holiday shopping!
Caitlin McGauley
I've said it before but I'll say it again: Caitlin McGauley rocks my world! You may recognize her watercolors from the pages of Lonny Magazine, but did you know that she also paints Watercolor Wednesdays for the Lonny blog? It's the perfect way to get your fix between issues ;) How striking are her portraits of fashion icon Iris Apfel and Vogue editor Hamish Bowles? They're the perfect start to a new week!
Gift Guide {All The Trimmings}
Design is in the details!
Here are a few icing-on-the-cake additions to your seasonal celebration:
{Ma Joie Press Letterpress Christmas Card, $3}
P.S. Blogging twice a day has been great so let's up the ante! I'm going to start blogging {at least} three times a day — sometimes just a picture or two to say hello and keep you coming back for more! Follow me on Twitter to keep up with new posts!

Semi-Sheer
I love these flirty looks that combine sheer and solid blacks. There's something about the simple shape, the sheer overlay, and her unfussy black peep-toes that makes Selma Blair's look my favorite, though I do love Jessica Biel's bow! Which look is your favorite?
Happy weekend, everyone!
Sugar Paper
I'm swooning over the custom stationery in new-to-me Sugar Paper's portfolio. Raspberry envelopes, gold type, polka dot liners, scalloped edges... Design is in the details!
Kate Powers
I'm head over heels for these new additions to the stunning portfolio of photographer Kate Powers. I love the model's subdued makeup and coral manicure, not to mention the Rothko paintings surrounding her. Don't even get me started on her polka dot skirt — to die for!
Desk Du Jour
I'm thinking my efforts to write final papers today would be more effective if I could write them in an office like Miss Kelly Wearstler's! Bright yellow walls, huge abstract art, the most awesome modern desk, and crazy cool pink chairs... It's a far cry from my outpost in Starbucks!
Gift Guide {Stocking Stuffers}
A carefully curated collection to remind you that good things come in small packages.
Clockwise from top left:
Seasonal Sparkle
Just a little gold and silver to brighten your Tuesday afternoon! It's my last day of classes for the semester and I'm certainly in need of a little sleep sparkle myself.
Window Seats
A window seat is definitely on the list of requirements for my dream home. I love everything about the first space: white walls, herringbone floors, and gorgeous bay windows. Do you like window seats? Which of these spaces is your favorite?
Style Icon {Peony Lim}
She's the first to admit her newcomer status but Peony Lim already has the makings of a style icon. Not familiar yet? She's one third of the street style blog PRP, which incidentally stands for Photographing Real People and the initials of its three contributors, Pete, Row, and Peony. She and her two equally chic friends aspire to various positions in the fashion industry and have been photographed by a number of street style bloggers outside of London Fashion Week, to which they have not (yet!) been invited. The free publicity is well-deserved, however — these girls (and boy!) have some serious personal style!

Cory Renee
Happy Monday, everyone! The time for seasonal soirées is upon us and that means your wardrobe is working overtime! Take the stress out of accessorizing with one (or two!) of these gorgeous bags from my lovely new sponsor, Cory Renee. Based out of Denver, Colorado, Cory sells gorgeous party clutches that can be customized to match your go-to dress or to outfit all your bridesmaids at completely affordable prices. They would make great gifts for a best friend or stylish sister, too!
Light & Bright
Bright white walls, stainless steel appliances, and industrial pendant lighting... Love, love, and love! Add in the pink tulips from the first kitchen and you've got my dream space.
Have a happy weekend! What are your plans?
Resort Reverie
It's a little early to start pining for warmer weather but I can't help falling in love with these new arrivals at Lilly Pulitzer! The dress would be perfect for a tropical New Year's soirée but it's the accessories I'm truly craving. I'm certain the wedges would improve my posture and the pretty-in-pink pencil case my studies — and as for the bangles? I'll take one in every color ;)
