great getaway inspiration

from Megan at MaeMae Paperie.

bangs.

i keep going back to this post from kate.

 i think i could potentially get the cut that the girl in the stripes is rocking...

i will ponder this in preparation for my next hair appt.

pink lips.

pink lips - because it's summer.

retro styling.

I know retro / vintage weddings are all the rage these days,

and even though I'm not planning on making our wedding a period piece, 

there's something so lovely about the styling of this photo.

seen here.

i must go here.

The new J.Crew Bridal Store just opened in NY. I die, it's amazing. 

Wayyy better than being shoved in a random dressing room at the Grove.

(Get with it LA and get a sister bridal store already).

 I need to see it the store person immediately. See more photos here.

fashion illustrated.

I'm thinking my friend Lauren will like this one :)

I think I may have to order it just for the cover alone.

true love.

I love shoes. 

So many to choose from for the big day, maybe instead of wearing 2 dresses as is fashionable these days - one for the wedding and one for the reception, 
I'll rock 2 pairs of amazing shoes. 
more on the topic here.

hedi slimane.

these photos are gorgeous. 

I love the chromatic silver (& typography of course).

it's an orange day.

leighton & blake.

gossip girls looking lovely in shades of orange & periwinkle.

black & white geometry

structured & stark.

emma watson.

such a beauty.

engagement party prep.

I may go insane with trying to finish up work, life in LA, moving, roadtripping and engagement party planning. These images are inspiring me to continue working on all of the fun decorations and printed goods for the party. Love the geometric nature of both of these pieces, the second print is by Sanna Annukka, sold here. 

mint lingerie.

marni + mint chocolate chip = this lovely lingerie.

wedding bands.

I'm dreaming of the day that I get to wear my stacked wedding bands.

In the meantime, looking at these gems will tide me over.

pleats please.

love the pink dip dye.

summer road trip.

This post made me even more excited for our western road trip!

inky black.

the density of these photographs, amazing.
the contrast and the light quality are to die for, 

not to mention lily allen looks amazing.

martini bar? yes please.

why is everything that sunday suppers does so amazing? 

this martini bar does not fail to please. 

this post reminds me of an evening spent with friends at a famous bar in venice, Italy, where they serve up one strong martini.

blatant re-blog.

I'm stealing the exact same post from coco + kelley - I couldn't help it. 

loving the wood details.

pretty in pink.

lovely bridesmaid dresses. lovely photos via max.

elle's wedding invitation.

why are my friends elle & kyle so cool?

 reason #1 million: they lasercut walnut blocks as their invites. 
seriously amazing.

woodland beauty.

this dress (and feather necklace) are divine.
