Miss Daisy…

I have been waiting to see The Great Gatsby for over a year now, and the date is quickly approaching.  It seems like it is going to be a beautiful work of art captured on film.  One part that will certainly add to the masterpiece is Carey Mulligan as Daisy Buchanan.  Her whole wardrobe is amazing.  I wish we could go back to dressing like this – everything was so exquisite.  Vogue did an amazing job of capturing some of the fabulous looks as they interviewed the little cutie for their cover story.  I seriously get lost in these images…I can only imagine how well Baz Luhrmann will draw me in with his amazing talent of film.

Isn’t she lovely?!  Are you going to see the movie when it comes out? Have you read the book?

Much love,

Wish I was There {Coachella}…

As a lover of music, especially live music, art and fashion, it is only natural to find myself daydreaming of being at Coachella, right?!!  I love the free spirit that this amazing festival seems to draw out of everyone.  The bohemian style that covers the grounds is beautiful.  Each person has his or her own look that comes together to create an amazing art piece at this one festival.  It is beautiful.  At least, from what the pictures can show.  I seriously need to start saving and planning so I can go next year.  I know whoever is playing I will enjoy, since the music that is also played at Coachella is totally my style.  I mean look at this year’s lineup – freaking amazing.  Now, join me in my daydream and look at some of these lovies…

Absolutely Fabulous…

As a lover of art and a lover of fashion, this fabulous post by Absolutely Fabulous had me swooning.  I love how they took classic pieces of art and used them as a muse and paired some MOO Sunglasses to spice up their rendition.  And then on top of that, I also am falling in love with their whole blog.  These two ladies have class, style, sas and looks like they have a lot of fun with life – such an inspiration, I had to do a little feature and share this gem with you.  Though, they are kind of a big deal, so maybe you already know how fabulous they truly are already.  Here are some of their other fun renditions of the classics, that certainly are absolutely fabulous…

I love her look.  I would wear that to the office and then out – seriously.  It is perfection.

Hydrangeas.  One of my absolute favorite flowers.  I cannot wait for mine to bloom this year at my house.

Such a stunning loose bun.  I love it and need to master this for mornings I am running late for the office.

Seriously in love with these hats recently.  Also on my spring shopping list.  Love the wider brim.

Five Loves…

love1

There is something so beautiful about this photo.  The girl is stunning, but that is not all.  The look in her eyes draw you in and then the soft look on her whole face allows for the red to pop perfectly on her lips.  Love this lovely.

love2

This drawing is amazing.  I love all that it communicates all through a pencil sketch.  A girl filled with so much emotion and words that are right there on the surface, but still stuck inside of you…

love3

Seriously, this is the perfect warm winter day ensemble.  I adore the hat – the big brim to help block the wind.  Then, add the big shawl - divine.

love5

 

I have been obsessing over figs as of late and so naturally this salad grabbed my attention right away.  It looks delectable.

love4

 

How cute are these little booties?!!  I seriously feel like I need these for spring.  I just die.

What are you dying to gets your little paws on for spring?  Do you impulse buy or try to take time to think about the purchase first?

Much love,

B

Five Loves…

Let loose and dance in the street – while wearing stripes.  In love.  Yes, please – let’s go.

A fun accent chair I am adoring right now – I would love to have this in my new living room.

 

I love my Great Aunt Jeanie.  She is simply beautiful – both inside and outside and I want to look like here when I am 82.

 

I have been searching for a fun print to hang in my kitchen – and this is one of my current favs.  I am loving looking for pieces to stylize my house and make it a home.

 

Having time to myself to relax and read – seriously one of my favorite things in the whole world.  Such a simple little treat.

What are some of the little pleasures in life that bring you great joy?

Much love,

B

Happy Places Collide…

This weekend in Minneapolis is the Uptown Art Fair.  I absolutely love this art fair.  It brings out some of the greatest people – seriously, you are bound to laugh a time or two, as well as meet some very interesting people.  The art fair always happens right outside the steps of my yoga studio.  So, why not bring the yoga outside and let the two collide a bit?!  We will be having some free classes going on, as well as yoga demos if you will.  I am so excited – a weekend full of art, beauty, fashion, and yoga?!!  All in lovely Minneapolis?!!  Why, yes – that is exactly where I will be – in the middle of some of my happy places colliding.  I certainly will be a #happygirl all weekend long!

Do you have any art fairs in your city?  What are some of your favorite places?  Do they ever overlap?

Much love,

B

A Memorial Event…

Happy Memorial Day, loves!  For those of you that get the day off, I hope you are enjoying the long weekend and kick-off to summer.  I know I sure am!  There is something about holidays like this that make me crave a good movie – and lets just say I cannot get enough of The Great Gatsby trailer.  It looks like it is going to be amazing – from the cinematography to the cast to director to the storyline itself – it is going to be an amazing work of art.  It comes out on Christmas Day, and I certainly will be there.  Alright, I am off to keep enjoying frolicking and not having a care in the world…

What are you doing to kick off summer?

Much love,

B

Instagramming Here…

Oh how true this is…or at least appears to be true from my Instagram feed.

Do you Instagram?  What qualifies for needing an Instagram in your life? I love Instagram and use it often, just for the record.

Much love,
