Art Collecting (Viv Strauss)

I came across the art of Viv Strauss via A lovely being and immediately fell in love. I like everything about her work from the price to the color to the characters and I thought you would too. Check out her shop here.

Pretty Young Thing

She is quite lovely to look at, no? Elle Fanning is about to take Hollywood by storm at the tender age of 13. There are few girls blessed with this sort of beauty in junior high school, but I believe she is one. I love her look, both in these editorials and on the red carpet. I think both she and her sister, Dakota, have long careers ahead of them.

M is for Monogram
While I do have a few preppy tendencies, I wouldn’t consider myself or my style “preppy”. Why then am I tempted (attempting) to monogram everything from beer glasses to bed sheets?
I’ll tell you why, because it’s adorable. Annnnd I might be a little excited about our monogram: PBR.

BIG News: If the shoe fits…
Dear friends, I’ve hit a big milestone in my bride-dom. I purchased shoes that I intend to wear with my wedding gown. Apparently the shoes you are going to wear on that day are imperative to the hemming process. Who would have thought? Now, I know you haven’t seen the actual dress but I will divulge that it’s white. wink wink.
What do we think? They were quite affordable ($109) compared to the Miu Miu’s I’ve been lusting after. And, don’t worry there’s a 60 day return policy in case the glitter actually looks like a kindergarten art project.
I’d love to hear your thoughts. I’m a shoe girl so I wanted something fun. I always wear heels, plus my intended is over a foot taller than I am so I never feel bad about wearing stilts. I figured out (when I wore flats to our engagement session) that I don’t look as small and fragile next to him as much as short and squatty.

Gorgeous beach style. I always love a romantic editorial…
