we love you ace hotel! part 1

P.S.

we just got back from our one-year-anniversary trip in Palm Springs! the ace hotel was absolutely, incredibly, undeniably WONDERFUL. and now i'm all in the hipster/summer wonderful fashion vibe (via Fly, Anthropology, You are my Fave)

maps!!

if you give my hubby a map/atlas/globe, etc, he will be content to sit and stare at it for an hour. he's gotten me into maps, not to mention there is a map trend in the blog world (these are via oh joy! design sponge, and you are my fave). i want to be able to fill out an empty map of the U.S. by memorization.

a good day off

plenty of sleep, homemade vegan chili, and a matinee with my mom to the Laemmle to see Ondine-a beautiful, unexpected film set in Ireland. a must-see!! Thanks, Mom! :)

oh, another wedding.....why not? ;)

THIS one really caught my eye and captured my heart. i LOVE the bride's dress, which was made by her mom(!) I think the groom and his outfit is so cute, even if he's a redhead boy ;) i love the headband that the flower girl wore. i'm not a beach wedding girl, but they really put a classic spin on the idea.

sweet necklace

a 'thief and bandit' necklace that i spotted on Bloesem many moons ago and keep forgetting to post. i don't love it as much as the first time i laid eyes on it but it's cute nonetheless.

whoa, nelly!

bigBangstudio paintings

i love these paintings by the blogger herself, and they reinforce my desire to move to arizona (yep, that's right)
a kitchen that i just so happen to love, which i spotted on Bliss.

can you spot the kitty cat?

i found my girl, Cleo, like this the other day. just chillin. i just about cried, i was so overwhelmed by the cuteness of it. don't make fun of me.
