a baby shower and a birthday party

Yesterday, I hosted my best friend of almost 18 years, baby shower. It was special not only because this girl is my sister, but it was also on her 23rd birthday! What a wonderful memory. Here are a few pictures.


Elizabeth and her sisters + her mother (who might as well be a sister!)


Together since we were 5!


us + the mamas



23rd birthday cake = strawberry cake, coconut flakes around the bottom + cream cheese icing


Elizabeth has only been craving grilled cheeses and spinach dip in her pregnancy. For her shower, I thought we should do a panini/grilled cheese bar. Here is some of the desert options. Dark, semi-sweet, and milk chocolate. 

A hit: dark chocolate and parmesan cheese... who would have thought?





So thankful for my friendship with this wonderful lady! It was a special day that I could help celebrate not only her birthday but also the future of her soon-to-be beautiful little girl.

Get Your Tights Out

Tights are no longer just for the 3 year-old ballerina heading to dance class or the Sunday church-goer. Tights come in all shapes, forms, and fashions - and they are one of the best accessories for fall. 


simple, classy, black stripe down the back


pretty textured fishnets (not of the tacky kind) on miss Olsen


colors! colors! colors!


accents - here a wonderful kneepad embelishment


art deco


polka dots!


leather panelling 



Add some tights to your wardrobe this fall + winter. So many ways to wear them.
