I really like Feist, she is my hero. Her website is pretty smashing too. My sister is a dancer and I think she would really appreciate the choreography for this video. Her new album, "the Reminder " came out today - on itunes - horray!! - i've been waiting for it.
(I found this video link visiting the lovely - Oh Happy Day blog - it is so great :) )

thoughts + things

Yeah! I received another package from the five sense swap. I found out about this swap via Kristen's blog (my 1st swap partner) and I thought, why not do another one? I was lucky to get it today! These 5 delightful items were packaged so lovely, with thoughtful little handwritten tags. Thank you thank you Mary Ann from a very mary design my senses are happy.

Happy Mail! This weekend I received Kristen's box from the mellow + yellow swap that I participated in. It was quite refreshing to receive something so nice in the mail. The packaging was beautiful and contents were equally great. It is such a coincidence that we sent each other black + white items, out of all the colors to choose from. Thanks Kristen! and Thanks Marta for putting the swap together!

Gowns galore

Labels:

I did not know that jcrew had such great wedding dresses. It is nice to see some lovely bridal gowns and dresses for under $250.

As I've been thumbing through bridal mags lately, I am awed by Monique L'huillier she is my favorite couture wedding dress designer of the moment, because of the glamorous detail in her elegant designs.

I love bubble baths

Labels:

home + garden

Mac and I just bought our first townhouse - hooray! We have been painting up a storm throughout the place, making it feel more like home. I am looking for color ideas for the bathroom and I found these via Cottage Living Design Assistant. I want a clean and fresh feeling and I like the green-blue and white. Of course, it would also be nice to have a claw foot tub someday.

I think that Australian Donna Hay has such beautiful food styling, it is so simple and chic yet elegant. I checked this book out, and it is beautiful. Has anyone tried cooking any of her recipes? The desserts in this book look delicious.

Last night Mac took me to dinner at the Macaroni Grill and afterwards we walked through Williams-Sonoma and we saw this cute beehive cake, among other things.

I also came home to find the Dean & Deluca catalog in the mail - lots of beautiful treats!

Feeling girly?

Labels:

thoughts + things

Friday, I went to a quaint little shop in Alpine called Dear Lizzie. I ate with my bro. & sister-in-law in the little cafe/bistro area which was delish. It is one of those shops that makes you definitely feel like a girl, I've also seen little girls have tea parties here - so cute. If you are ever in the area, wanting to be inspired and feel feminine I highly recommend this shop.

Cool stuff that they sell:

the best custom stamps I've ever seen by three designing women- you can also find them at Room Service Home

Collage jewelry, trinkets, and memorabilia by Sally Jean - they are made out of glass and metal, I love the one I have which says: "I think I'll be an artist or something."

Gianna Rose Soaps: delightfully smelling and looking

creative guest books ...

I think it is great to let wedding guests leave more then just their sig. Wishes, notes, or words of wisdom to the bride and groom seem to be a bit more meaningful. I wish I would have done the Polaroid idea at my wedding.

I love the photography by Rodney Smith. I had the opportunity to hear him lecture, and he is quite a remarkable person with an amazing eye for detail, and great use of light in his photographs. He studied under one of the great photography masters - Walker Evans.
