Bad Hair Week!

Last week was disastrous for my hair tools! My blow dryer split in two and is now hanging on by a few strips of duct tape and my flat iron decided turning on was no longer in its repertoire. It was time to invest in something new and that something new just so happens to be the prettiest flat iron I have ever seen!

Say hello to my new Paul Mitchell Express Ion Smooth De-Luxe Iron! Isn't she pretty :)

My Top Ten

1. This depuffing eye mask from Sephora is AMAZING! 

2. I just bought these Marc by Marc Jacobs sunglasses this weekend and I am obsessed!

3. I pretty much stalk J Crew's website every night and every night this jeweled collar sweater catches my eye.

4. I am in the market for some new studs and I am in love with these from Anthropologie.

5. Another purchase I made this weekend that I am super excited about! These Steve Madden heels will  be perfect for day or night. I think they would honestly look amazing with #3 if you rolled up the jeans!

6. I do not own this J Crew bracelet yet, but I am determined to! 

7. Le Pen's are the best! Not only are they amazing to write with, but they really brighten up your desk. 

8. Fun jewelry box from Anthropolgie.

9. I love Mistral soap. It makes shower time feel like spa time!

10. Mercury glass is one of my favorite things. I love this collection of votives from Anthropolgie. 

Essie

It would be an understatement to say I like nail polish,

I LOVE it and I am super obsessed with it. I can't leave

the grocery store, Target or Walgreens without throwing

a polish in my cart. When I first discovered my 

love for nail polish I was a huge fan of O.P.I. 

I flirted with Chanel polish (honestly the worst

polish out there, you pay $30 a bottle for it to

just chip off a day later) and Deborah Lippmann

(amazing polish, but can not stomach paying that

much a bottle!), but ultimately found my one true

polish love, Essie! 

1. A Cut Above

2. Set in Stones

3. Mink Muffs

4. Go Ginza

Patterned Linens

One of my favorite parts of my job is when I get to help out with the design of an event. One of the key elements I always think about when designing an event is the use of fabric. Fabric is an easy way to pull in texture, color and adds so much visual interest. Your table linen is an awesome way for you to pull you color palette together and is the grounding design element in your tablescape. I am a huge fan of using patterned linens to create maximum visual interest. Below are some examples from recent events I have done.

Lime & Charcoal

Indulge!

Whew! It has been a whirlwind week filled with prepping for an event, executing that event and a bunch of meetings in between. When I have a week like this I always take some time to indulge in some of my favorite things to inspire me and keep me going. Below are the little things that kept me going this week :)

I LOVE The Rachel Zoe Project! It is probably my guiltiest pleasure, don't judge! What I love most about the show is see the inner workings of her office and how she has expanded so rapidly in the last few years. The business side of fashion really intrigues me!

I can read the same issue of Vogue over and over and never get board. Opening up a Vogue is the perfect getaway for a few minutes!

Playing with the girls, Lucy & Coconut!!!
