Love, times a million. Look at these gorgeous gold, white and corral letterpress invitations created by Alisa Bobzien featured on Oh So Beautiful Paper! I am seriously in love. The Carolyna font looks so good in gold, and the honeycomb pattern is so unique. The monochromatic map is the perfect finishing touch to this set!
What do you think about these beauties?

Isla’s room is making progress, but there is still a ton of work to be done! I feel like this is a never-ending project, but I only have 15 more weeks left. We’ve bought or ordered most of the furniture, but are still waiting on the glider and ottoman, curtains, two lamps (here and here), baby mobile, and a ton of prints/frames for our bare walls. I need to pick a wall color (or wall paper!), create a gallery wall, and fill these massive bookshelves with books and baby stuff. The baby registry is almost complete though, thanks to help from Annie Dean’s list and other new mom friends of mine. I have to remind myself not to keep buying things or there won’t be anything left for my upcoming showers!
I’m sharing a few pictures of the nursery (in progress!). The ENTIRE room was once covered with pictures of the items taped to the floors and walls – as more and more items come in, more and more paper comes down! I cannot wait until June 4.
Two very bare bookshelves!
The crib (before the mattress arrived)
With the new mattress (poor lighting though!)
I cannot wait until the curtains arrive! Pictures of the lamps, curtains and wall paper are taped everywhere.
Where the gallery wall(s) and glider will be!
Update: The Baby & Child Manor Court Chandelier Floor Lamp is here!

I am constantly scouring in the internet for creative baby announcements, and I absolutely love this modern card, designed by Kate Stoltz. I really like the incorporation of baby Gemma’s footprint and the wrap-around ribbon tying the trifold together. And how sweet is that sleepy picture? Have you seen any other cute announcements? I’d love to see!
Whitney Port’s home was recently featured on Domaine Home (obsessed with this site!) – my love for her grew as I clicked through the pictures. I’ve been a long time Whitney fan – through The Hills, to The City, and now Whitney Eve, her clothing line. Her artwork, closet (dying), kitchen and fabric choices are all spot-on. She can do no wrong! What do you think about her Venice home?
It has been ages since I’ve rounded up my favorite looks of the week (last post here). This was definitely not due to a lack of perfectly curated outfits. I’d have to say my favorite is Rachel Parcell’s snowy shoot and Christine Andrew’s sequined baby bump (slightly biased here!). Which of these looks do you like the most?
Hello Fashion – my pregnancy muse!
