come Spring come!

I do love snow (only in small doses) but enough is enough! I long for warm, bright and long sunny days~ I want to put away the heavy sweaters and coats and wear light, pretty blouses and dresses =)
Here are some of my favorite Spring 2011 looks.

Creative Christmas Gift Wrapping

Only a few days left before Christmas and it's gift wrapping time! Usually I'm one of those who buy a generic gift wrapping paper and stick a plain ribbon. But this year I want to do something a little special, something that feels and looks handmade =)
While I was searching for some creative ideas, I came across some beautiful ones that I want to share with you. Wrap your gift with brown recycled craft paper and add a little found object or some doily for that romantic vintage charm. Or add cutout monograms or yarn pompoms for that colorful and whimsical look.

I know most of you are done with your Christmas decorations but if you want to retouch it a little before your guests arrive, here are some ideas. I'm loving the turquoise and white color palette, not your traditional christmas colors but still very festive.

Designer Spotlight: Michael Aram

I spotted these lovely pieces when I went to Bloomingdales the other day. They are by Michael Aram, an artist who works primarily with metal. The candles would definitely be a great Christmas gift. And the ornaments, aren't they just so sweet?
