Scene



These images are by Marco Suarez, his photography shows remote mountain ranges and coastal locations all over the world in a fresh way.

School Days



This darling little book bag looks like it came straight off the back of someone in grade school circa 1955. I love that they are still being made today.

Colorful Keys







These three charming typewriters, with their colorful glass keys, were all manufactured in the 1930's. They may have been originally designed as educational typewriters to help children learn the keys but, I know more than a few adults that would love to get their hands on one of these beauties.

Happy Friday



We wish you a happy Friday and a wonderful weekend ahead. Maybe you can even sneak in a night on the town, complete with a healthy dose of mischief... you know you deserve it.

Feather





A lovely take on a boutonniere. These lighter and longer lasting feather boutonnieres are sure to catch the eye at any soiree.

Gossip


Such a classic. This Norman Rockwell painting is the perfect example of why a picture is worth a thousand words.

Mother of Pearl Buttons






Like wonderful little treasures, I adore each and every mother of pearl button I see.

Peony



This blissfully pink peony was captured by the amazing Alicia Bock. Swing by her shop for endless eye candy from Paris to the seaside.

Fun With Stripes












There is something whimsical about a simple stripe pattern. They can add so much style and a big pop of color to just about anything.

Over Sized












Recently I have developed rather a soft spot for over sized vintage glasses... especially those in candy like colors. However, I still need to obtain the right amount of moxie to pull them off. Does anyone know where you can purchase moxie in an easy to swallow formula?

Red




I am smitten with the small details in this Yury Darashkevich painting. The warm red against the grey is lovely. The perfect shadows that help her quite expression come across and the few bits of hair that have gone astray. They may only be strokes of paint, but each brings a sense life to the piece.
