PLEASE DON'T BREAK THE BABY

Is it just my family or is this a normal thing to do with babies?

IT'S ALL IN THE HANDS

These gloves bring me back to my cotillion days when I was a child.  Once a month I would get all dolled up in my finest ruffle dress of the moment and find a matching pair of gloves that we were required to wear and head off to learn the waltz and learn how to properly cross my anckles.  I had this black velvet asymmetrical dress with gold starts on it that those bottom gloves would have been perfect with!

MUSTACIO MONDAY

As we all know I'm a bit obsessed with mustaches, so you can imagine how excited I was when I walked into the Chelsea Market last week and saw these beauties hanging throughout the place.  They are by photographer Dave Mead who traveled to Ancorage, Alaska for the 2009 Beard and Mustache Wolrd Championships and came away with the most amazing portraits.  If you live in the NYC area I recommemnd hitting up the exhibit or check them out online at davemead.bigcartel.com.

Should the Vuvuzela be banned from the World Cup?

BAN IT or KEEP IT???

ABOVE IT ALL

These photos by photographer Chris Benton are nothing short of A-mazing!!

CALIFORNIA THE BEAUTIFUL

As much as I love New York my roots and heart will always lie with California.  I saw this great print from Amy Ruppel on Etsy which I plan on getting to add to my collection of California prints.  It reminds me of the drive up the west coast I did with my family a couple of years ago.  Below are some pictures of the redwoods on that trip.

STRAWBERRY SOUP

I can't wait to try this strawberry soup I came across on Design Sponge.  It looks so refreshing in this hot and sticky weather we've been having.  You can get the full recipe here.

SWING

I think a swing in the living room is very necessary.

LOVELY APARTMENT

This New York City loft of Susan and William Brinson, two fellow SCAD Alumni, is so perfect to me.  You can see the rest of the pictures of the apartment on Design Sponge here.

PILLOW TALK

My Mother would love this pillow.  You can find this  and other great pillows from Alexandra Ferguson's etsy shop where she sells post consumer felt pillows.
