inspired by paris

I am seriously missing Paris! Whenever I look through photos from my trip, I am suddenly inspired . . . the food, fashion, art, decor, and lifestyle in Paris is simply wonderful. Enjoy. .

thought of the day :

accessorizing with j.crew

I'm seriously obsessed with j.crew right now. The accessories are fantastic and I swear I could purchase every outfit in the store if my bank account allowed. These necklaces can be dressed up or down . . . and are the perfect addition to almost any outfit ! Their wedding dresses are outstanding as well . . . so classy and simply . . . and so beautiful !

quote of the day *

" At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don’t keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That’s how we’re made. So, you can waste your lives drawing lines . . . Or you can live your life crossing them. "

Tie the Knot!

I love these simple ideas for an engagement party. The letterpress from Simplesong Design is perfect . . . simple, yet still makes a great statement. I also adore this burlap wrapped vase!

oh paris ...

I was lucky enough to play (and study..) in Paris all summer . . . whenever I find photos of the city of lights, I fall in love all over again! These photos are from Sunday Suppers . . . one of my favorite blogs. I am eagerly waiting for the day I can venture back to paris :)

I was in charge of the flowers for sorority recruitment this fall . . . such a fun job!

hawaiian style

These photos are from a family friend's wedding on the beautiful island of Maui . . . I was unable to attend, so I made sure my mom took pictures to show me! I have been to that location before, and decided at age 10 that I would be married there right on the water. It truly is perfect . . . the Olowalu Plantation House.
