The hubs and I are in Florida for the next week or so visting all the fam living in this balmy peninsula. It is a HUGE understatement to say that I am a bit excited to say sayonara to this cold rain/snow/ice situation in Boston and helllllooooooo to sunshine! In the spirit of the vacation, I  decided to do an Etsy round-up of...

I have been such a lazy arse about cooking lately, and am generally feeling uninspired when it comes to anything in the kitchen. Lots of Upper Crust Pizza and cereal for the hubs and I. In the spirit of seizing back my wifely duties, I put together this lovely collection of kitchen essentials that will last through the ages. {The Shopping List} 1....

When this gorgeous 'do landed in my inbox, I knew I had to share this perfectly unperfect updo with you. Thomas Dunkin (a genius!) and the Sebastian hair team were...

No more of those decorative vessels around the house with the purpose of looking pretty and collecting dust...Boston-based Jill Rosenwald designs cool ceramic bowls and accompanying accessories that are as functional as they are gorgeous. Display, serve, or gift....they can do it all. The suzani bowl is particulary awesome, as is the bowl she dubbed "Super Bowl in Outfit pattern, Vapid colorway" (quite...

I recently discovered this new jewelry collection, and I love it. Versatile? Check! Handmade? Check! Unique? Check! The line just oozes California cool, and it makes me miss my old stomping grounds oh so much. Definitely putting these on my "buy someday" list.....and on that note, I need a bigger jewelry box. Here's a bit about the line: "Dream Collective, Kathryn Bentley's new...

  Valentine's Day may have come and gone, but these underthings from Sweden-based Made By Noemi are too fantastic to not post about. I am seriously smitten with the wearable shapes, gorgeous fabrics, and fun colors. I am not a huge fan of that 'va-va-voom' lingerie that lifts, squishes and squeezes curves into something they are not (Victoria can keep her secret for...

OK, CLARIFICATION: NOT ON MY BRAIN!!!! So my dear mom and MIL, you can breath a sigh of relief. Even if I did have babies on the brain, I don't think I would announce that to you over the Internet...sheesh. But you know, Valentine's Day was yesterday and there are a lot of November birthdays (especially in my family) for a reason....eww, mental...

{Via here} What's everyone up to this weekend? I know some chores are in order (LOTS of laundry, cleaning the apt, hanging pics, and all those other unfun things),  squeezing in some quality time with the hubs and fam, and I am obviously planning on jumping around Boston with colorful balloons in tow. Hopefully I won't slip on some ice and face plant...

   I am all about REAL interiors with a dash of romance - the top image is GORG, but really, who has a bedroom like that? Not a whole lot of people outside of Paris. As much as I wish I was in the City of Lights right now, these boudoirs are a little more realistic. Ranging from contemporary chic, eclectic vintage, or...

While most people associate dark smoky eyes and a vampy red lip with Valentine's Day, I prefer a much softer, natural look to play up your best accessory - your face! Being in the midst of a cold and grey Boston winter, I am craving a 'bronzed and beautiful' look....and at this rate, I am definitely going to to have to fake a sun-kissed...

Soft and girly, with lots of sparkles and touchable accents like feathers....that's what I am coveting for Valentine's Day! I would style this up so the bra peeks out from the top, and tuck the top in to the skirt so it is loose and flouncy. J'adore! {Resources} Boudoir Photo 1. 3.1 Phillip Lim Button Down Shirt 2. Feather Mini Skirt 3. Miss...
