Birthdays are big deal for me... I just love 'em! My twenty-third is in about a month (December 4th) and I've already begun the countdown. In addition to counting the days I'm also starting to curate the perfect wishlist. This year's collection of wants (after I've had cake for breakfast, of course) is full of cheeky items and unique accessories. What's on your radar lately?!

There are some things I used to hate as a child that I now love. For example: most veggies, classic black & white movies, country music and the color blue. It seems like I just can't get enough of the color blue lately! Blue shoes, blue sweater, blue jewelry? I'll take 'em all.

nothin' but blue skies

Choosing the perfect art for our new place has been a daunting task but I'm finally starting to settle on an ideal formula: equal parts gold, graphic black & white and whimsy! What's hanging on your walls says so much about who you are and I'm hoping to inject a little fun and inspiration into our home with these prints. I'm planning to decorate with art by bloggers who inspire me, a few of my favorite designers and one fabulous girl I met at Freutcamp (Ann Shen). I can't wait to get out my tool belt and start hanging those gilded frames!
