Oscar de la Renta has always been at the top of my list of the most brilliant designers, so you can imagine my delight when I discovered the designer would be collaborating with Lee Jofa on a line of summer fabrics…  Exquisite!

Entertaining Jonathan Adler Style

I love entertaining my friends and now Jonathan Adler makes my job much easier {and more fun!} with his modern line of partyware!  Thank you to one of my favorite entertaining blogs, Hostess with the Mostess, for the fabulous find.  With tumblers, napkins, paper lanterns, and dessert plates all in Adler’s signature aesthetic, my next party will definitely shine in style…

J.Crew Wedding Boutique

I love everything Jenna Lyons does, so I’m especially excited to see the new J.Crew wedding boutique opening on Madison Avenue on May 27th. I know it will be just as amazing as their women’s collection store!

Cabin 7

Just launched today, Cabin 7 is the brainchild of two childhood friends Jennifer Jafarzadeh L’Italien {she’s a former editor that we’ve loved working with for years and is now the blogger behind The Haystack Needle!} and Chris Haber. {They met many moons ago at summer camp- and yep, stayed in Cabin 7!}  Jen and Chris make- and sell- gilded wood objects, like gold gilded vintage children’s wooden blocks and gorgeous wood chunks spliced to turn into a chic business card holder!  (Learn more about gilding here.}

A Tory Burch Easter

Forget Cadbury Creme Eggs. I want my Easter Sunday to include this Tory Burch botanical print-either preppy and casual in a cardigan or dressed up with strappy heels.

I dreamt about my new Taj duvet…

that I ordered from Rikshaw Design last night!  No joke.  I am that excited to put it on my bed!  Spring is officially here at Rikshaw- gorgeous bohemian bedding for adults and the most adorable block-printed kurtas, bloomers and sun hats for babies!  {And it IS supposed to be a sunny, spring-like week here in Northern California!  Wahoo!}
