A Few Beautiful Things / Edition No. 10

Friday has arrived, it is time to celebrate! It has been a busy week both at work and the other work that I have going on.  I have been enjoying the beautiful crisp mornings here in New York where all you need is a light jacket of choice (mine being my favorite vintage leather jacket) and you are set until lunch time when the sun warms everything up.  I hope that everyone has a great weekend, but before I leave you here are some beautiful things that I have loved this week.  

This wedding in Croatia is beyond dreamy for both the location and the fashion

There are no words to describe this apartment in Paris

Speaking of, this is a day that I would have loved to spend in France

This is the type of workshop that I would dream to attend, so much beauty

Meditation, something that seems impossible in our busy lives, but here are a few great pointers

A Few Beautiful Things

This week really got away from me within a blink of an eye it is Friday.  I am thoroughly excited that fashion month has started, so far the show that I have seen have just been pretty.  With a major side project that I cannot wait to share with you shortly and my sisters visiting me I hope to come up for air at some point this weekend.  I hope that everyone has a great weekend!  Before I leave you here are some pretty things I have found over the past week or so.  

I have fallen in love with this Spring 2015 collection 

This cake is so pretty, the sugared rose petals are a great detail

Adore this all white look, after all white should be worn after Labor Day

Here are two books (here and here) that I cannot wait to flip through

A Few Beautiful Things

Well, we are in the home stretch, tomorrow we are getting married!  I am so excited that my family and friends are slowly trickling into Brooklyn.  I have a lot of projects going on for the big day that I cannot wait to share with you when we get back from our honeymoon and I will have a few sneak peaks on Instagram.  I will be here next week posting but following Memorial Day I will be taking a pre-summer break.  I will be back in the first week of June to share with you all of our wedding details and of course our honeymoon!  Until then...

This chocolate cake looks absolutely divine

I have been completely blown away by the One Room Challenge series by Albertina, did you see her living room? It is perfection

My new holy grail, a coffee lovers guide to New York and Brooklyn by neighborhood, get ready to caffeinate yourself through 101 different coffee shops!

A Few Beautiful Things

Happy Friday everyone!  Today we are headed up to Boston to celebrate the first birthday of my nephew, which should be adorable.  But before I leave you I wanted to share some beautiful links that I found around the web this week and of course, this floral editorial featuring Caroline Winberg wearing one of my favorite dresses from the Dolce & Gabbana spring runway (one of their best shows yet, that I would just die to get my hands on).  I hope that everyone has a wonderful weekend!

For me presentation is everything, so I am head-over-heals for this cookie and paper flower gift idea I discovered at Oh Joy!

These photographs from Ann Street Studio nearly melted my heart - who knew a monkey could be so cuddly?

Our honeymoon itinerary is all-set for Italy, but I would like to extend our adventure to Livonro after seeing these photographs shot by Nicole Franzen

I simply adore still life photography - this Easter celebration on Hortus Cuisine is taking the cake right now (such stunning light)

Paris...I will see you soon...

And speaking of France, what a dream it would be to purchase a chateau and convert part into your very own bistro - Mimi's life is a dream

A Few Beautiful Things

Happy Friday everyone! So glad the weekend is near and with it spring temperatures.  I am excited because I have my second (local) bridal shower on Sunday hosted by my wonderful mother-in-law-to-be.  Before I leave you for the weekend, I just had to share this dreamy photograph shot by Vanessa Rees, the incredibly talented photographer that I was able to assist a while back on a shoot - I mean how amazing is this styling?  Also, here are a few beautiful things that I have spotted around the blogosphere this week. Have a wonderful weekend!

Can we talk about this pavlova? Such stunning photography and styling

I adore Albertina's newest pillows, so pretty

I would love to attend this photography workshop

I love Louise Rowe's California home - a bit bohemian with touches of Hollywood glamour

Excited to read the latest issue of Rue

Such a chic office, I would love to have that wall paper in my own

A grilled cheese party? Yes, please!

Saveur Magazine has released their nominations for the best food blogs, one day I would dream to be on that list

A Few Beautiful Things

Happy Valentine's Day! I hope your day is filled with love, lots of love.  What a week it has been, busy yet exciting between work and fashion week the days flew by leaving my  head spinning. I love meeting other bloggers and this week I met the wonderful Merritt, Rachel and Emily and had a fun dinner full of laughs.  I am looking forward to the long weekend ahead which I plan on baking, enjoying the snow and tuning into the beginnings of London fashion week.  

These photographs by Alice Gao are just dreamy

This is one of my favorite winter palettes, light pink and white

Seventeen years old and writing a cookbook, Izy is insanely talented both in the kitchen and behind the lens

This winter picnic has my mouth watering

I dream of owning my own business and when I do I would like my meetings to look like this

Everytime I read Mimi's stories I want to be transported to France

Floral arrangements inspired by Dutch paintings are simply stunning

A Few Beautiful Things

Thank goodness it is Friday - the past two weeks have been incredibly busy at work but hopefully things should be settling down a bit now.  I am super excited because two of my sisters will be arriving into town today with the mission of helping me pick my wedding dress - I have three/four in the running and of course visiting and catching up.  I love having vistors and showing them around Brooklyn.  To kick off the weekend, I rounded up a few beautiful things that have inspired me this week. I hope you have a great weekend!

I have amped up my workout since our wedding countdown has begun, I am eager to try these moves from workout genius Tracey Anderson.

Cynthia Rowley is making the forray into the beauty world again, this time teaming up with Birchbox.

I would love to set up shop in Lucky's Eva Chen's office, so bright and colorful.

Albertina is hosting an amazing giveaway with Shoe Mint and I am crossing my fingers on this one.

I have always been fascinated by reflecting water, so these photographs took my breath away.

Beautiful new pieces set to launch at Harriot Grace's shop, I have my eye on the copper pots.

This recipe for Kale & Feta bread would be the perfect savory treat.

Salted Maple Butter - what could be more luxurious?
