Rainbows and Eggs… Happy Easter!

With Easter just around the corner, I’ve got eggs and pastels on my mind.

Some outtakes from our latest photoshoot for the spring issue of Sweet Paul magazine. Abby Stolfo baked that beautiful rainbow cake (and the rest of the spread, yum!) while I dabbled with egg dying and other fun tutorials. Meg Smith created magic with her beautiful images…. I love working with these talented ladies. All in all, a really egg-cellent day!

Pops of color

Love branding firm Anagrama’s approach of using the color white as the canvas to accentuate Theurel & Thomas patisserie’s colorful macarons…

Camping or Glamping?

I’ll admit I’m not much of a camper, but glamping, that is a whole different story. The options at Canopy and Stars are addictive. Give me a yurt that looks like this (pictured above) or this boathouse, and I say, my bags are packed!

shoely you kid me…

These are some outrageous shoe designs. Love the whimsy (especially the Olive Oyl one!), but to actually wear them… hmm… yay or nay?
