Happy Halloween.

Happy Halloween! What sort of disguise will you be wearing today? I ultimately decided on biker chic… time to go start applying my temporary tattoos…

Chocolate Buttons.

I’m busy getting ready for a business trip to Chicago, but had to do a quick post on what might be the cutest tasty treat I’ve ever encountered… This weekend my girlfriends and I popped into Hotel Chocolat on Newbury Street in Boston for a Champagne and Chocolate event celebrating their store opening. I don’t [...]

Man shops chandeliers.

When I heard that there was a new tv series on Sundance about Keith Johnson, the buyer from Anthropologie, I had my TiVo set so fast I didn’t have time to blink! The most exciting thing about Man Shops Globe is seeing Keith pick up unique pieces from the corners of the earth and then actually [...]

Eclectic layers.

Meredith Heron pulled together a perfect balance of styles for the Canadian House and Home Junior League showhouse. Can you believe this was once a basement safe? It’s all about contrast: the rustic, worn table, the sleek and clean Panton chair, the glamour of an oversized leaning mirror, the bohemian quality of a tie-dye rug. And what I think what really [...]

Decorative warmth.

It’s snowing in Boston today. Oh and also, it’s October 18th. How does that happen? What would be really nice on this snowy October Sunday is a crackling fire. Unfortunately, my fireplace is only decorative. So some decorative fireplace eye candy will have to keep me warm instead! Images via Domino, Cottage Living, Domino

Leather and Fur.

I’m on the hunt for a Halloween costume… and in my fashion, the annual search is fueled by an excuse to buy an over the top piece of clothing that I can incorporate into my costume and still wear afterwards. So the question is… should I be a biker chick? Or Rachel Zoe? Input gladly [...]

A dash of floral.

The colors in the Rochas Spring 2010 collection are delicious! I don’t want to wait for Spring though, those warm hues would look so rich next to a warm eggplant and burnt orange colors for the Fall. via This Is Glamorous What I’m most intrigued by in this collection though are the flowery accents on [...]

Scene stealer.

Did anyone watch the wedding scenes from this week’s Gossip Girl and notice that Lily Bass’ pink and turquoise wedding look… … was alarmingly similar to the Christian Dior look that Cameron Diaz rocked to the Met’s Costume Gala in 2007? Magenta, silk, ruffles, turquoise jewelry, blonde up do… I’m just saying, story-lines inspired by [...]

Festive Fall.

Getting back to the grind after a long weekend wasn’t too bad today, and I think it was partially more manageable because I had such a fun weekend. I saw my sister, went hiking and leaf-peeping with my boyfriend and had a day of Fall fun with my girlfriends. We spent the day at the [...]

Life’s a circus.

How adorable are these vintage circus and fair posters? I think they would make a fun, kitschy inspiration for a child’s room… the muted primary colors are perfect. These and a few others are for sale on Three Potato Four; snatch some up before they’re all gone!
