Anne Cramer Spring 2012

Last year I bought a striped skirt that I knew would forever be a classic, my Anne Cramer Flynn. It has been a wonderful addition to my wardrobe and a piece truly perfect for most any social! Much to my delight, Anne recently launched her darling Spring line! It's full of stripes, whimsy, and what I like to call "twirl-inducing"frocks & skirts. If that's not enough to make you swoon, her tag line is "be elegant. stay irreverent." I think every classy lady can get on board with that ;) See (my) Flynn twirl. Here!

The Part- Middle vs Side

The middle part- something about it intimidates me! Am I the only one who feels like you have to be a celebrity to pull it off? My girlfriend has been middle parting on the reg and looking quite fab. I'm feeling a little shy about it, but I think I'm going to give it a shot! Are you a middle or side kinda gal?

Ginger Jar Wallpaper

I can't get enough of this ginger jar wallpaper! Isn't it charming? I would definitely go all out with it in a powder room- add fresh white peonies, a gilded faux bamboo mirror, and monogrammed hand towels. C'est parfait!

Weekend Picture Book

This weekend was my mom's birthday and my baby sister's very first tennis match of the season! It was full of lots of my favorite things- catching up with my family (most importantly!), daytime  bubbly, macaroons, electric pleats, animal print fur (!), and of course lots of ridiculous ;)

p.s. I saw this fiddle leaf fig tree at a darling cafe, and I need it in my life.

Happy Weekending!

TGIF y'all! I'm headed deeper South to watch my sis' first tennis match of the season. I'm so proud of little miss college athlete! It's also mom's birthday weekend so there are lots of festivities planned. Last year I wasn't able to join them because I was guzzling Patron (for a good cause, mind you!) here so I'm doubly excited to celebrate!! 

pssst, what do you think of my new Society Social pillows? There are lots more here! We had such fun shooting. My brother does all my official photography and I absolutely love being a brother and sister team :) If you want, you can check out his blog here!

Splurge vs Steal

Since moving into the new place and having to throw away my old desk (a DIY I had planned to share *tear*), my home office situation is straight-up sad. Think floor, bed, windowsill. I've been looking at a TON of office inspo and this photo of Claudia's desk seems to be all over the blogosphere. Like the look? I shopped it for you, for less!

For your office:
