Everyone have a great weekend! I am spent after crazy week, and am looking forward to spending some time with my family who is visiting tomorrow!

This week!

I have been really into veggie recipes lately, don't these look amazing?

If Goddis could be my entire wardrobe for spring, summer, fall, and winter it would! This new to me and very dangerous, especially because to my surprise a local boutique in downtown Syracuse carries these beauties. I don't think I can get down there quick enough. Not to mention this girl modeling is gorgeous, can I look like her too?

Thank you Anne from The City Sage for the incredible find, and for the fact that I may go broke from it! 

Who isn't inspired by everything posted over on Fine Little Day, but this particular house tour of Lisa Gerinder really is just so beautiful. 

Hoko Studio currently based in Singapore is a collaboration of design and styling instillations between two artists Alivin Ho and Clara Koh.

 Hoko composes instillations done with common objects and how they relate to each other and to humans. Currently they just have completed a project called Stationery-Ware relating humans to stationery and tableware (does that not sound up my alley). I will tell you how this all relates to me and that is genius!  

Ninu Etsy shop is just too amazing for words! Beautiful Italian bags, gorgeous shop header, adorable doggie, how could I not purchase one of these? This gets right to the center of my heart on so many levels.

Oh the Oscars, boy do we love dress gawking, ballot filling, and meal planning once a year for our Annual Oscar Party. Usually it just ends up being my husband and I, but this year we actually got to plan a party! As I said earlier, Cyd from The Sweetest Occasion came over last weekend to help me craft up cute little goodie bags, and items for the party.

The theme of our party was a film noir inspired old hollywood vibe, decorated with yellows, golds, creams and browns. We created little bags for popcorn, and snacks to go with several best picture nominees. Note the American Airlines  "air plane snacks" for Up in the Air! 

Each attendee to our party brought a dish inspired by each film. We had so much food it was unbelievable. At the end of the night the ballot winner took home a pot of money and the official winner plaque, very serious. I did not defend my title this year, but I will prevail next, watch out. 

I tell ya what, I am so happy one of the great colors for this year is yellow. Its one of my all time favorites, hence my wedding lemon theme, and bridesmaid dresses. Yellow just make you feel good! The problem with me seeing all this yellow now is making me crave warm weather more then anything!

Logorama is short film and an Oscar nominee. I know all of you especially the designers will get a huge kick out of this. How did they get the rights to use all of these? I can't find the whole short but here is a clip, and it will give you an idea of what its like.  It's really amazingly clever! 

Thank you Ann Taylor Loft for being so cute, and affordable lately. I will be buying this top from you in the near future. 

Top $26.50!

The lovely and inspirational Carolyn of A beautiful Ripple Effect, asked me if I would create a wallpaper for an artist series of free downloads she offers with inspirational tags to them. This time being " You Don't Have to Know." I was thrilled about creating this, knowing that possibly my design could inspire or remind someone to just take one day at a time! While you are over there you can check out the new design header I also created for Carolyn's blog!
