extra day = extra post

just wanted to pop in real quick (things are suuuper busy at the office today) and tell you how i'll be celebrating the extra day we get this year! my former roomie Emily and i going to dinner with a friend i met in high school. i met Stephen my freshman year and we became fast friends (even "high school dated"!). Stephen now lives in indy, runs an awesome restaurant, and has a GORGEOUS singing voice. in fact, he is singing at the wedding! so tonight we dine and plan and enjoy each other's company! here's a really old photo of us in high school. i'm sure they will love that i'm posting this ;) this is our show choir days.

i've always thought that modern houses are perfect for bold art. it creates an amazing focal point in a sea of calm. this dining room houses a graphic, geometric piece that you could replicate at home. i love the colors in this one and i've matched them up to swatches from sherwin williams for you below.

glam

the oscars are on sunday and i'm thinking about hosting a private viewing and making everyone get all dressed up. how would you choose to dress up? trendy formal or vintage glam? i'm a fan of vintage glam. and i'd have to use these pretties to decorate.

girly goodness


for some reason lately i've been dreaming about spring dresses. you know the ones, they are pastel, cotton, bows or ribbons. the grown up version of the lacy, frilly dress you wore to church on Easter morning. anyways i completely fell head-over-heels for this number by BHLDN and i'd have to wear this darling eyelet bolero on top for church. paired with that cute etsy find and nude heels, i'm all ready for spring.
