Fancy Friday

While I'm quite irked by holiday decorations in October (calm. down. people.), I am in no way opposed to dreaming and scheming up holiday party outfits. And as with all things, the more tinsel and sparkles, the betta.

Western Wishlist

With extra 'peños on my nachos, porfavor. The newest House of Holland collection has me dreaming of ranch time and rodeos and 'real strong margaritas.

Happy 15, Melanie Carmichael

Ahem, or shall we say Melanie Smooter? I helped Over the Moon recreate the iconic looks from the iconic movie Sweet Home Alabama in honor of it's fifteenth (say what? apparently we've been around that long) anniversary - check out the post here!

Feathers and velvet and florals, oh my!

Oh my, indeed. High of 90° in Houston today, leaving me convinced fall is a state of mind. So why not dress accordingly?

When Cloche Hosts: Mr. McGregor's Garden Party

Let me set the scene that inspired this collage: a beautiful grassy lawn in front of the Argyle, a private dining club in San Antonio built in 1854; children squealing as they run around, baskets in hand, in search of the hidden gold key to unlock the most fabulous life-size playhouse I have ever seen; me, a few yards away, glass of champagne with a cotton candy topper in hand, wondering how long I could get away with moving into said playhouse and claiming it as my permanent residence; bunnies (yes, real bunnies) hopping alongside your feet, leaving you wondering whether you are hallucinating this entire Sunday afternoon dreamworld; and Laura Nell Burton and Christin Gish of Cloche Designs across the way, impeccably dressed and completely composed (proof below), reminding you that perfection is achievable with some teamwork and a lot of heart. 

Check out the guest post I wrote about Cloche Design's legacy project here and peep the details on this next-level garden party here.
