Favorite Looks of the Week

Some new additions to the ‘Favorite Looks of the Week’ series today! I love all of the outfits so much, but props to Victoria for making her husbands belt work so well with her pretty white dress, Blair for looking effortlessly chic in her white maxi, and Liz for pulling off my favorite denim jacket look (she’s the cutest person ever).

In other news… I’m getting married in 7 days!

A Piece of Toast

A Growing Print Collection

prints

I officially move into The Manor when we get back from the wedding, and I cannot wait to take care of all the finishing touches so we can think about throwing a house warming party. I love photographs (obviously… or see title of this blog), so they are in frames all over the house. I’ve also been adding to our print collection – I’m going to have a gallery wall in the study and one of the guest rooms. Our prints come from Etsy, Furbish Studio, Minted, Wantful, Paper Source (wrapping paper!), and Rifle Paper Co. We have some others on our registry, and I’m sure I’ll continue to add to the collection over the next year as we finish hanging things on the bare walls. Where do you find your prints?

Explore, Dream, Discover

Some of my all-time favorite quotes were spoken by Mark Twain. I always feel so inspired by this wanderlust-filled saying – isn’t it so true? We will definitely be more disappointed by the things we choose not to do than those we decide to do. It makes me want to pack a bag and go and travel (probably not good timing though, since we get married in 18 days!). I hope you are having a wonderful Monday!

frenchgimletOh So Beautiful Paper just announced a summer cocktail series with St. Germain (um, what? dream collaboration come true). Nole has been posting fun St. Germain drinks for awhile, but these new recipes look amazing. I’m not drinking until the wedding, but you’d better believe that I’ll be trying all of these post-July 19! The illustrations and photography are also incredible.

Mexican Themed Invites

DSC_1134

One of my best friends, Kirby, through a shower for a good family friend, Philip, and her college friend, Sydney, this past Saturday, and she sent out the cutest invitations (found here) Since the she shower was being held at Pappasitos, she went with a Mexican theme. I’m borderline obsessed with papel picado, and cannot wait until Paola (another best friend) gets married, so that I can go crazy with this colorful paper (as expressed here). Some other pretty Mexican themed invites below!
