I had to share a snapshot of the amazing bachelorette party the girls planned for me.  Palm Springs. OF Course. The Ace, The Parker, plenty of cocktails, lobster macaroni, and outfit changes.  It was perfect.

Vogue Apartments with LSD

Reblogged from Mode d'Amour

Here is just a small sample of all the home inspiration I've been collecting lately.  Maybe its the fast approaching wedding or all of the pots and pans that have been arriving at our house, forcing domestic living upon me, but I think it is finally time to leave our much loved beach apartment and get serious.  While I would much prefer a loft somewhere in the city or an old house that needs lots of love, Wyatt is dreaming of the white picket fence.  We shall see what we end up with...

The most beautiful editorial I've seen in a long time.  It's everything that Spring dressing should be about.. romatic, florals, ease in styling and design.

Lately life has been a series of ups and downs, leading me to question where I need to be in my career, where we need to live, and how I want to position myself in the grand scheme of my future.  I got some amazing news today that put my current state of wandering into perspective.  Sometimes I need to breathe and trust that in the end what will be is exactly how it should be.

Green Wedding Shoes

I can't believe it's almost Summer, which means two things: our August wedding and Paris!!  I've been a bit spastic on my choices for the wedding.  I began thinking I wanted a completely modern look, i.e. Kelly Wearsler meets Palm Springs in the 70's.  However, I've gone back to my roots and the decor has transitioned into elegant French Country with mixes of Great Gatsby garden party.  These are just few of the hundreds of photo clips I've collected throughout the process.

Behind the scenes...

Anita Pallenberg and Keith Richards

Suze Rotolo and Bob Dylan

Edie Sedgwick and Andy Warhol

Pattie Boyd and George Harrison

Yoko Ono and John Lennon

I have always wished I was a child of the seventies - la boheme was all I knew growing up and the vibe, the music, and most importantly the fashion has stuck with me throughout my 27 years.  I've always had a special appreciation for for the girls that inspired the artistry.  Between breaking out my much loved copy of Wonderful Tonight, by Pattie Boyd and listing to a million versions of Wild Horses for our first dance at the wedding, my love for this era has been restored.

After a long hiatus from this blog I've decided to attempt once again to share my inspiration behind an overwhelming wardrobe.  Life has quieted somewhat now that I have finally graduated and am back from traveling for work.  Now my focus will surround my wedding this August and our trip to Paris!  Many events and preparation awaits in the midst of the best season in California.. Spring!  I love that the runway was full of white upon white.  I don't think anyone can go wrong with a white silk blouse from Joie, white denim midis, and a glass of champagne to kick the season off :)
