Happy Halloween.

October 31, 2009

I hope you all have a wonderful and safe Halloween! A good friend is hosting a party at her loft, so I’ll be eating lot’s of her homemade goodies.

Halloween, à la Martha, of course!

Mrs. Mia Wallace.

October 30, 2009

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays- perhaps a close second to Christmas (I’m a sucker for bake goods and carols!) My bestie lent me the perfect black wig for my Mia Wallace costume, which I’ll be pairing up with a few other things.

What are you for Halloween this year?

Halloween: Amy Atlas Style.

October 29, 2009

In the world of dessert table design, no one quite matches Amy Atlas‘ style and eye for detail. Her Halloween table looks so incredibly yummy!

Ivanka Marries.

October 26, 2009

I picked up Ivanka Trump’s book The Trump Card while at the airport this morning- I read non-stop from Miami to Washington D.C.! I have to admit, I’m a huge Ivanka Trump fan- She’s gorgeous, ambitious and incredibly smart.

And to top it off, she married Jared Kushner (equally ambitious, Jared is the New York Observer’s owner!) in this beautiful Vera Wang gown- I love the lace neckline.

Bamboo Wallpaper.

October 20, 2009

The bf went to New York earlier this month and picked up these lovely bamboo wallpaper samples. The pictures really don’t do them justice- they’re slightly embossed, and soft to the touch.

Visit Farrow & Ball in New York.

Suitcase: A Hot Night in Miami Beach.

October 19, 2009

I’m back on the road this Thursday- and I couldn’t be more excited! Oh, how I’ve missed the airport chaos, the small town grub, and the smell of clean hotel rooms.  First stop, Miami Beach!

Joanna’s Wedding.

October 13, 2009

In the world of chic blogs (and I say chic, not chick!), Joanna Goddard is somewhat of a Queen Bee. Thousands tune into her Cup of Jo blog and read her e-column Smitten. Last August, Joanna married and sought out some of the best people to help make her wedding special. Here’s a sneak peak below… But visit her blog for more!

Cooking: Pumpkin Pie.

October 12, 2009

Yesterday, I attempted Anna Olson’s Perfect Pumpkin Pie for the bf’s Thanksgiving dinner. Success! Though I should mention my pretty Emile Henry ruffled pie dish required me to cook the pie for longer then the necessary 40 minutes (it’s deep dish!)- thus, my pie didn’t quite set how I would have liked it. Next Year!

Happy Thanksgiving! xo
