Best Dressed

Here are some gowns from various Fall RTW 2011 collections that I would love to see walk down the red carpet tomorrow night.
Monique Lhullier

Marchesa - How gorgeous is this?!?

Of course some Spring Couture would always be appreciated as well.

Language

Jon said that if I learn French we'll go to Paris.
I think all I need to know can be found in this very lovely video.


I'm pretty sure he'll say this doesn't count!

heart

It's Valentine's Day. Luckily, I got to celebrate all weekend. Dinner with Jon on Saturday night, Sunday brunch, Creme Brulee and the Grammy's last night (yay Arcade Fire!) and then to top it off I got roses delivered to my classroom today! He surprised me :) My kids were crazy excited. "Her husband...NOOO...her BOYFRIEND!" I think to them me having a boyfriend is a lot more interesting than a husband.

Isabelle has even been in an extra loving mood today. Maybe because I keep telling her Happy Valentine's. She of course understands what that means. I never shared this pic of my new rug. She always rolls around on it when I come home from work (or anywhere) and sits on it sadly when I leave. So it's message was very befitting:
Happy Valentine's :)

Imaginary Decorating:Living Room

Do you ever go on an imaginary shopping trip? For me they are always unplanned and seeing one thing can set them off. Tonight it was this photograph:
It's all my favorite colors! And the yellow even goes with my newly painted bathroom. So I planned a little living room update. I'd keep most things that I already have in the room since I already have the teal color scheme going on. I've been trying to think of how to bring in another color. My great-grandmother's floral tv-trays have bright colors in them and I think yellow would work well. My She and Him print and coffee table would still work as well as my curtains and tv table/dresser. It's sorta like a mini-dresser.

Anyhow, I'm so in love with this yellow settee. The little feet! All of these came from Urban Outfitters. I know, I couldn't believe it either. So bright and fresh! I could probably find a similar bookshelf in town and paint it. And the vintage looking metal stacking baskets! I'm in love. Maybe I'll have to start stashing some of my paycheck away for this look.


Living Room Update

Drumroll please...

The moment you have been waiting for (at least my mom and Jon have been waiting for) is finally here. The bathroom is done!
I love it. The before and after says it all really. Huge difference!
