road trip

Im taking a brief little road trip for a job this weekend and pretty excited to gather inspiration at each stop I make. (Inspiration is way better than key chains or post cards!)

I am looking forward to the beautiful drive, good music, and great thoughts!

Stay tuned for photos and ideas!
(also the fab wedding that I will be assisting with.....is going to be AWWW-mazing)

it's all in the heART.

Do you have that one place, where the desire to create, and urge to dream, are pushed through your mind like ocean waves, consume your entire body? It's that place where just one image can change your entire life. It's that place that all things really are possible.

found. inspiration.

You know your are a true dreamer/artist when you find inspiration from doing yard work. After a day of trimming the hedge around our house (ok, my fiance put in the hard work), I found something that sparked my creative soul. As the ladder was propped up against the fence, I became a little enamoured. Now, how to use this vertical object.... or maybe it's horizontal?

Scar-Jo (Moet & Chandon's brand ambassador) made this fragile ad shot so soft and dreamy for the champagne's 2011 ad campaign.

How great is the feminine element against the stark city skyline! Love the muted colors.

This photo just makes you feel warm on a cool night! Dreaming of an outdoor party with great friends and family. Nice idea to warm up an outdoor space without needing more tables.

I fell in love with this editorial back when I first saw it. So modern-fairytell like. Again, so dreamy!

glossy eyes.

It's no secret. I LOVE MY MAGAZINES! 6 subscriptions, and I still go out and pick up these monthly inspiration bibles. Awww...

I dont toss them out. I tear out the pages that I adore, and set them aside for inspiration, or just frame them throughout my space if I really lust over the images.

A couple faves are Wmagazine (heart pumps faster everytime I see it in the mailbox!), ElleDecor, Elle, Country Living (I know, Im a little country), Town & Country (I dream of becoming a NYC "old money" socialite), Harper's Bazaar (what you SHOULD be wearing..).

What magazines are you totally smitten over? Leave a comment and share the glossies that inspire you!

summer love.

Now that we are officially into summer, I cant help but to

day dream over all of the gorgeous flowers around.

Splashes of colors as I walk down the street, and the euphoric mood that is set when I see them in my yard, makes summer feel OH-SO-REAL.
