Scallops have once again melted my heart. This clutch is just all sorts of wonderful. Between the color, the fabric and the little gold tassle, my heart has hit girly overload. I must have it. Unfortunately, it is $100. Oh Top Shop, you vile wench. I shall have my way with you in November!
I’ll never forget my first grade teacher, Ms. Wahl. She tutored me during the summer going into 2nd grade because I just could not read. I don’t know what it was about the process, but it did not sit well with me. I didn’t get it. At all. But she helped me. She helped me so much I became an avid reader shortly after. So avid that my mom didn’t know what to do with me and my voracious appetite to go through book after book after book. And that’s when my love affair began with reading.
Something very important to remember, ladies. One prince may be taken, but we always have the other. 😉
Seriously, how cute is Prince Harry? Apparently I’m not the only one that noticed the younger prince during the Royal Wedding. The Internets are just a-twitter with Harry love, and it’s no surprise really. He’s pretty damn good looking, and you know I love me a good ginge Brit. And if you need any convincing, just check out the pic spam under the jump!
Antique shopping: something Miami is lacking. I see people get all these amazing pieces off the street and from specialty stores, but I can never find a similar (& affordable) option down here. I wish I could tell you this post is about a new local discovery (but I’m all ears to any suggestions), but instead it is a new not-so-local one. To only add fuel to my lusty fire, my friend Mallory (check out her amazing decor/lifestyle blog here) recently posted about her trip to Winter Park, FL to visit 1618, a fabulous retro/vintage furniture store.
As if her own amazing find wasn’t enough to incite some serious envy, she told me to check out their Picasa album that they update regularly with new arrivals. And I did. And I instantly regretted it. In a record 5 seconds, I managed to fall deeply in love with this Paul McCobb Modular Table. Do you think they take orders by phone? And then ship them? For no additional cost?
Am I asking for too much?

I remember a few years back when I had what seemed like back-to-back weddings every month. Well, now things have shifted and we are at the stage where it is one baby shower after the other. I’m not going to lie, I’m not a fan. OK, so I usually groan when I receive an invitation to one. However, I really appreciate when a couple understands what makes a baby shower downright boring and try their best to do the complete opposite. Cue one of my oldest friends, Camero. She knows what’s up.
