love navy & pink

My friend Kristina saw this and said it reminded her of me.  Who me?  Spot on.  Love the combo.

still collecting...

...classic books with covers designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith.  My mom gave me a few for Christmas last year and I bought two more.  I know everyone seems to be raving about these books, but look at them.  How could you not want them on your shelf?  Plus, I love a good classic and one is always in my reading rotation.  Makes me regret not keeping my high school literature teacher's "100 Great American Classics" list.  I want to read more of them!

And now Ms. Bickford-Smith has designed a lovely F. Scott Fitzgerald collection, perfectly gilded.

ZOMG - FURBISH!

I am quite the fan of Jamie Meares's blog ISuwannee and ever since she opened her home store Furbish down south, my roommate and I dream about running Furbish Boston for her (can't you see a couple of us Yankee gals selling all her lovely brightly colored furniture, candied accessories and fabulous finds?).  But listen - you can buy her stuff NOW!  She launched her online store ShopFurbish.com.  Delight in her pillows, lamps and all things happy.
