Postcard Valentines.

January 23, 2010

I’m itching to get these pretty vintage postcards for my girlfriends this year.  I’m a fan of the Christmas ones that come out each year- In fact I’ve used them two years in a row now!

If I Were a Tree.

January 22, 2010

I’m hibernating, I’m sorry. Nothing like this very lovely video from Kat Burns and the Forest City Lovers to remind you that Spring is just around the corner (sort of!)

Congratulations Julie.

January 7, 2010

My best friend Julie got engaged over the holidays- and I couldn’t be more excited for her and her fiancé Sachin. They’ve been dating for years (almost seven!) and are one of my favorite couples. Their wedding will be absolutely beautiful… Some early inspiration below- a gorgeous wedding photographed by Our Labor of Love.

Bachelor Jake Pavelka.

January 6, 2010

Are you a fan of the Bachelor series? It’s a guilty pleasure for a few of my girlfriends and I- we’ve been watching since the Trista & Ryan days! In the season opener we learn it’ll be another scandalous season (go figure!) and that Jake might just be less boring then I thought (hopefully!)

The fashion is a nightmare- Why do these ladies pride themselves in wearing pageant dresses? They look ridiculous. With that being said, my two picks for now are Ali and Elizabeth from Nebraska, though my favorite was Elizabeth from D.C. who seemed sweet and sincere, but I guess Jake didn’t see what the rest of us did. What are your picks?
