I love rompers! Hot summer days=romper wearing. 

Or a hot, Palm Springs vacation day!

Love this striped romper from Free People.

Speckled Jumpsuit

Here's the latest addition to my romper collection, the best part is there is a little cut-out in the back, so cute! 

On a fashion side note I just discovered this blog and found it to be so lovely! 

I totally wish I would have found it earlier, so that I could have bought this dress from her Etsy shop!

I put up my first vintage oil painting over the weekend! I love this portrait.

I can't get over the expression on her face and those bright green trees behind her. It really was love at first sight.

I need a better camera!

How cute is this vintage dollhouse?

I love vintage mugs. I have a mix-mash collection of them I've picked up at thrift stores over the years. I love all the different patterns, colors, and unique handles. 

Some of my favorite mugs hanging by the kitchen window.

I'm currently obsessed with vintage oil portraits. 

 I sense a new collection in the works!

So jealous...I want to go to a Three Potato Four Barn Sale! They have the best stuff!

Every kitchen needs one. 

 Plate wall!

 Vintage deer & a Nikki Sass painting, that I love!

Collections are everywhere!

Love the utilitarian binning!

 I love my friend Tim's house. He's a collector, has great taste, and a very unique way of styling things that I adore.  We bounce ideas off each other a lot and he is my go-to guy for any house project I don't know how to do! We were hanging out the other day so I took these snapshots inside his home. Enjoy!

Swedish textiles designer Lotta Jansdotter has always been a favorite of mine. The images above are from her Brooklyn studio. I recently purchased her new book Handmade Living: A Fresh Take on Scandinavian Style which has beautiful images of her home and studio, entertaining ideas, and home projects. Super inspiring! 

Her home is also featured in the February issue of Elle Decoration UK Edition. When asked if she preferred new or vintage: "I prefer vintage to new. I like the fact that a piece has already done its work in another home." Love!

Top 5 Design-Savvy Wedding Gifts

1. Kate Spade Hydrangea Pia vase.
This was a surprise gift, something I didn't even register for, that I love! Ours is the one on the far right.

2. Jonathan Adler Whale Butter Dish.

 I am a huge fan of Jonathan Adler, especially anything from the Menagerie Collection.

3. Laguiole Natura Knife Set. 

They're French and I love the bumble bee logo on the side of each knife! I must pick up this soon, too!

4. Vintage Pyrex Butterprint Mixing Bowls.
This gift was a great surprise and very thoughtful! I love vintage pyrex (now, that sounds like a great post for later this week) and the Butterprint collection is my favorite. I love having this set out on display on my kitchen shelving.

5. Vintage Beams Choice Deer Art Whiskey Decanter.
Love the shape, love the deer! Another very thoughtful gift that we have on display in the dining room. So glad we got a few vintage gifts!

One of my dream finds is a vintage hotel mail box unit, or a vintage card catalog, or both. Ah, compartmentalization. The possibilities of what you can put in them are endless!

I'm also in love with this cubby organizer from Pottery Barn.
