Warm is chic. And I'm pretty sure Crew's styling is impeccable.

In case you're wondering...

This is my dream home. A seamless mix of great finds, clean lines, and just a touch of new. How great is this space? And the sunroom; an adorable, unexpected touch of color.

Hello, "my new favorite collaborative flower shop I've never been to". I am all sorts of awe over this space and their presentation. Prairie Collective is the combined genius of Studio Choo, Magpie & Rye, and the Cloak and Cabinet Society. I'm loving ALL of it.

a quick little snapshot of an inspiration room, the colors make me happy. i re-invent my bedroom theme every time I stumble upon something like this. (yellow continues to call my name)

Backstage Vena Cava. The rarity of full-faced makeup on the runway lately is apparent. I'm loving the bright coral lips, dark metallic eyes; almost 20's flapper headed early 80's.

ASOS fall. I'm not minding it getting cold. Love to swim in big chunky coats, knee high socks, and platform boots. Growing out the hair roots so I can evolve into fall.

This shoot by Ditte Isager for REALSIMPLE blows me away. I'm not sure who styled these but I am completely in love. This is how I imagine my future beach house (and the world I create outside of it).

Loving the randomness but strong design in these references. All those old snapshots, rosaries, and mix-matched frames you have lying around- slap 'em on the wall!

Marguerite in Portland. Never been but I yearn to go. Romantic labels, antique scissors, linen, bell jars of rocks, and other very very pretty things.
