{Anthropologie Love}

I'm a huge Anthropologie fan, especially their loungewear and stuff for the home. I try not to buy too many bathrobes, nightgowns and hoodies, but sometimes one can't help themselves...


Picturesque Racerback: I actually bought this top the other night. It's super comfortable and I just couldn't resist the bow on the back. That said, it doesn't exactly have the best coverage in the front when laying down - 'things' just don't stay covered very well.



Toe-Shoe Tank and Free Float Sleep Pants: I already own this tank and wear it to lounge as well as a layering piece under sweaters and jackets. The ruffles are subtle but still a fun touch...




Grey Dove Robe
: I have a robe from Anthro my mom got me as part of my bridal shower gift about a year ago. I adore this robe, but it's showing some signs of wear. This would be a great replacement/addition to my robe collection...


Louisiana Plum Chemise: It's hard to see in this photo, but at the top of the bodice, there is a little cinching to create almost a sweetheart neckline. Love that...


Ruffle Bralette: Hmmm...ruffles on a bralette? Quite possibly the best combo ever...

Dressed-Up Hoodie: More ruffle love...


Wide Ribbon Cardigan: Technically more of a sweater than loungewear, but still looks pretty lounge-y to me...


A few non-loungewear pieces I'm craving...

Tivoli Scoopneck: Love the applique detailing...

Twists-and-Turns Top: Love the nautical stripes...


And last, the Rivulet Trail Scoopneck: I've actually tried this on and it was quite cute on. Another good piece for layering or alone.

{I'm Back!}

Well, after quite the hiatus, I've decided to return to blogging. After my last post, I left my job at a PR firm to consult full-time, which I've loved, but it didn't leave a lot of time for certain things, like blogging. I used to post about random things I found and fell in love with, and that's what I'll continue to do again! These loves include fun items I come across, photos and magazine tears that I love, and probably my favorite love, shopping! Enjoy...

{Calling Cards...}

I've always loved everything Iomoi has to offer, but I've recently been coveting their calling cards. Here are a few of my favorites:




{Orange!}

I was checking out the MA Belle blog and came across a dresser from a 2007 issue of Cottage Living that I had loved at the time, but completely forgotten about.

The decorator painted an old dresser she had a bright orange color - combined with the subtle colors of the rest of the room, it really pops but isn't overwhelming. Love it!


{More house inspiration...}

After having various shades of blue walls for about 10 months, I'm really wanting to go white, white, white. We have white tile in most of our house, so I have to be careful to not make it too stark, but as our place is pretty small, I think it could open it up quite a bit...


































































{Can I Live Here?}

I came across this Hamptons cottage on the Blissful Living Magazine Web site. I'm in love with this house, especially these images:

{On to the house...}

Well, now that we're post-wedding, I've been focusing my energy on finding inspiration for our house. When we first moved in, we did some renovations, painted, etc, but I've grown tired of the paint colors and have been itching for some new furniture.

One area I'm most excited to work on is our guest bedroom/soon-to-be office. I'm switching from my full-time PR job at an agency to consulting full-time and need a home office area that I'm excited about working in.

So I've found some inspiration from various blogs (the first image is a press clipping for See Jane Work; the other images are from the Ruby PR blog, which I adore):
