m thinking for spring

If there’s an appropriate way to wear Givenchy thigh skimmers on a Sunday I think this is probably it.

Yup, still thinking of ways to tone these babies down. I love them with this men’s knit hoodie I picked up in Stockholm a couple months ago to ruin the look a little bit. COS so needs to make it to the US already!

This morning Mr. Larson and I had a chance to visit a few flea markets and antique shops together. It's one of our favorite little dates. He likes to shop for vintage guitars and microphones and I hunt for dresses,louis vuitton outlet online, chairs, hats and cute housewares.♥ 

I wore a white vintage dress with vintage necklace and tooled purse, cardigan from Target and vintage cowboy boots.

River Island

My Week with Marilyn: Feminine, Flirty and Fabulous

(Sweater – H&M, Dress – vintage via Deelux, Belt – Thrifted, Jacket – Thrifted, Shoes – JCPenney,nike Free, Sunglasses – River Island)

All I can say is.. it’s fun to channel Marilyn Monroe… and may I add.. it takes a lot of work to channel Marilyn Monroe.

The process starts with curling and pinning all my hair. Then it’s on to makeup, and let’s just say fake eyelashes are not my best friends. Next, the hair comes out of the pins.. it’s brushed and sprayed into place. Finally,シャネル財布 新作, the outfit is chosen and it’s all about being feminine, flirty and fabulous.

Normally, when wearing a body hugging dress,シャネル 財布, I would pull out the spanx and suck it all in.. but this time I heard Marilyn say, “let’s embrace the imperfections.. and be the woman that you are”.  Thanks Marilyn.. I think I will.

And with that, I was off on a date with my man.. oh.. and he’s loving this by the way!

we've learned so much these past two months. we've worked in the shop together almost every day and it's been better than i ever could have imagined. in my previous location i had a difficult time balancing retail and creative time (basically, i always wanted to be in my home studio and not in the store), but here it's happening more naturally. i'm getting more done than i did working from home. i love being at the shop and we're getting excited about every single new display and new addition. things are clicking!

we had a planning meeting last night (we used a super helpful Q&A style outline from our pal Promise). talking through this past year was so encouraging. we',コーチ 長財布;ve grown so much! you',コーチ アウトレット;ll never know how much it's changed my personal and business life to work with emma every day. it's the most positive thing that's happened to Red Velvet and I am so excited to start this new year off with her! ,コーチ公式;

i guess i'm telling you all of this to say that i'm more motivated than ever to build our company and realize our dreams. things are really really good here and i owe a lot of thank yous to my wonderful blog readers and sponsors for supporting this adventure.♥ 

(above) we took a few snapshots to show our project for the day. we're adding about 100 new/vintage items to the retail floor and preparing for a mega makeover in our back studio room. we can't wait to reveal photos when it's ready… and even more, start creating back there! our new intern comes in just a few weeks. My new dress line will be underway in a snap! How crazy is that? 

I'll be back soon with some D.I.Y and inspiration post lovin. XO, elsie 

PS. We're doing major e-mail catch up damage in the next 48 hours. I've been insanely behind, so if you're expecting an e-mail it's coming soon!

Places in America’

At Home With Savannah Wallace

Beautiful Dining RoomOur next home tour guest is the lovely Savannah Wallace!  She is here to share her dining room with us!At Home With Savannah Wallace"After two newlywed years in an apartment in Atlanta, Jon and I moved into a two-story condo on the East side. The neighborhood was built in the 70's and has mostly older residents, which Jon and I love. It's a quiet and peaceful place to live. Our favorite parts about the condo are the windows, huge amount of storage and the massive walk-in closet in the Master. This is our 3-5 year home, and we love it. Moving in, I decided to take a "one room at a time" approach to my decorating. In the apartment before our condo, I found myself piddling in several rooms at a time and never really feeling like I completed anything. In order to achieve the decorations I really loved, take my time and focus,シャネル バッグ, we decided that decorating one room completely and then moving onto the next would be our most constructive option." Bar Cart"For our first room we decided to pick the dining room,Nike Free Run, mainly because we had absolutely no dining room furniture to start with and also because we love hosting get-togethers for our family and friends. Our community is an important part of our lives,コーチ, and we wanted to create a space that could easily host those dear to us. I began a series on my blog called 'Project Condo' which chronicles my progress, ideas and inspiration boards.Dining Room ArtDining room details"One of my favorite things in this space is my 'Places in America' print and scrap wood frame. My father-in-law and I made this frame together, and I love how much of a statement piece it is. We signed the back of the frame together, and it was so special working on a project and learning about wood working. I also love the fact that Jon and I are able to start recording the places we've been with our pins that came with the artwork."Lovely Wall ArtCute Record Player"This space is special to us because it truly is a mashup of my taste and my husbands taste. We also wanted to create a space that would be kitty friendly and future children friendly, so we came across a lot of challenges. Taking our time and approaching it one piece at a time made for a space we truly love, feel at home in and enjoy eating our meal together in." At Home With Savannah Wallace via A Beautiful MessBeautiful Bar CartLovely dining roomThank you forsharing, Savannah!  Be sure to pop by Savannah's blog, Maiedae, and say hello.  xo.

There are some special guest stars in The Darjeeling Limited. Eleven of them

The Darjeeling Limited,nike free run
limited louis vuitton handbags

Three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other — to become brothers again like they used to be. Their “spiritual quest”, however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray), and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases a printer,コーチ, and a laminating machine. At this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins.

There are some special guest stars in The Darjeeling Limited. Eleven of them, in fact. An entire monogrammed luggage set, designed by Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton,コーチバッグ.

limited louis vuitton handbags

(Well, there are actually fifteen guest stars, if you count the suits worn by all three main characters and Owen Wilson’s belt that matches the luggage set, all designed by Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton.)

The luggage set is a beautiful brown calf skin with prints of elephants, zebras, giraffes and palm trees. I personally could have done without the animals or palm trees, but they fit the characters and the movie.

While I thought the movie was very good, I found myself staring at the set throughout the movie. During certain scenes, I found myself wanting to shriek at the screen, but settled for quietly exclaiming, “Careful! Those are Louis Vuitton suitcases!”

I give The Darjeeling Limited (and the luggage set) Two thumbs up. Images via Elle.
