City Bike

Do you have spring fever, darlings? I fear it's creeping up on me, but can you blame me? It's supposed to be 65 here in the city on Thursday. 65! I'm dying to scoop up a bicycle, with a bell and a basket of course, fill it with fresh flowers and farmer's market goodies, and zip about this little island.  

Buy a city bike!

Design Darling- The Boutique

There's no way you missed it (this young business lady is a social media maven! take notes!) so I'm really writing to applaud Ms.Mackenzie on her marketing and merchandising skills. Her darling boutique that just launched last week, is perfectly curated around her admitted "polished prep" aesthetic- a fine example of brand building. Know who you are and stick to your guns, ladies! I just love the quartz bookends, do you have a fave? Do share!

Weekend Picture Book- Better late than never!

My Next DIY (This is not a joke)

It's Friday. I'm feeling silly. My dear brother sent me this link for gold EDIBLE spray paint on Apartment Therapy. (amaze.) Instead of thinking about all the darling crafty, edible diy's I could pull off with this gilded treat, I thought to myself- how fun would it be to spray paint your teeth and dance around like Nelly? Let me see your grill. =D Needless to say, he still has not responded to my email. Good idea? No? Fine. But don't be jealous when I'm having all the fun while you sit there grill-less.

Now that I have that off my chest...back to scheduled programming. TGIF y'all!

New Necessary from Loren Hope

Have you seen the new creations over at Loren Hope? Loren is a dear friend of mine (not to mention the other half of On the Rocks!) and I so admire her for the business she has built all on her own. All personal biz aside, I also adore her work! She only ever uses genuine gems and cabochons (plastic is for the birds!) in her designs so you receive a seriously gorgeous, handmade piece for a smashing price! Do check it out and while you're at it, you must see "the Roxy!"

Spring Fever

It's March 1st. Officially allowing myself to have a bit of spring fever, although it's still likely to blizzard here in the city, a girl can be hopeful :) Al fresco season, come on!

Switcheroo

I was doing some weekend reading when I stumbled upon this quirky link over at A Cup of Jo. I immediately visualized Alan and I pulling a switcheroo and laughed out loud. I don't suppose furry cheetah and red sparkle tweed flats are quite his look ;) Do these photos have the same effect on you? Would love to hear about your version of a "switcheroo!"
