Saipua’s Basil Soap

Have you tried Saipua’s newest Basil soap?  I just treated myself to one today and my whole bathroom smells DIVINE.

Little Horns

I’m a firm believer that style shouldn’t be sacrificed for function. Case in point… it took me until the end of last summer to find the perfect retro-inspired metal fan {anything to avoid those plastic eye sores}. The same goes for attractive speakers. These Little Horns have the sculptural appeal of an antique record player and can be hooked up to an ipod, MP3 player and computer. Sold!

Liz and Chris

I saw Liz and Chris’ wedding on Snippet & Ink, and was immediately drawn to their rustic, outdoor table set-up. I love those chandeliers!

American Cupcake

How is it that the cupcake trend has been going strong for over ten years now?  I’m always amazed… and am currently dying to check out the new American Cupcake in San Francisco.  Lynn from Paris Hotel Boutique told me she thought of me when she wrote this post.  Cotton candy cupcakes, bubblegum cupcakes…so up my alley!  {Lynn knows me well!}

Lonny June/July Issue…

Have you seen the Rikshaw Design feature in the new Lonny?  And the incredibly chic dove gray cowhide rug from Cost Plus World Market in Ellie’s gorgeous apartment re-do?  Or the zebra print iomoi stationery in the ‘We Went Mad For’ section?

I swear I’m not saying this because I personally adore Michelle and her crew, but this is the most gorgeous issue ever.  Congrats guys!!!  xx

American Girl in Paris

Meet Haleigh, the blogger behind Bardot in Blue.  She’s a California girl who now lives in Paris {my dream!}  Having just recently finished her studies at American University of Paris and living in the Marais, Haleigh shares her Parisian life with those who visit her blog.  From shopping, travelling, and enjoying treats from Laduree, I simply adore seeing Paris through her eyes.
