{Penelope and Coco} The Collectibles

I have to say, the Penelope and Coco's oxford collection is more my own personal style, but their F/W 2011 The Collectibles does have a great styling edge to these looks.  The loafers would be the perfect accent to some classic J.Crew silhouettes. 

{Bucherondin} Olsson's Fine Food

My best friend Jill and I headed to our now annual trip to the Wine & Blues Festival in the beautifully luscious Natirar Park, NJ yesterday [I am sad to say I never put my battery in my camera after charging it, boo].  After tasting from some of the newer wineries, and laying in the shade for a few minutes, we did a cheese tasting at Olsson's stand which was unbelievable.  I am not a big cheese person, but the soft selections looked too good to pass up.  

I ended up walking away with the Bucherondin cheese, a semi-sweet cheese with a dense, flaky paste with a white bloomy rind.  The 3 different textures are incredible on the tongue and will be exceptional with my new wine purchases. Hopefully, their new store in Palmer Square ships their fine goods.

{Happy Friday}

I can't believe it's already Memorial Day!  Very excited to kick off the summer with BBQ's, friends, family and sand between my toes - enjoy the long weekend!

{Olympic Provisions}

Ever since going to Portland, I keep myself updated with the master minds at OMFG Co.  They did fantastic branding on Olympic Provisions, Oregan's first USDA certified meat-curing facility and they nailed it.  Genius.

The design simplicity & rough quality of these bario-neal pieces are perfection. And really, who wouldn't want to get their purchases in a recycled bottle?! 

{You've really got a hold on me}

I made the mistake of flipping through my roommates new J.Crew catalogue that just came in the mail.  I think I need to give in, maybe, just this once...

{New} Rue!

Nothing beats the gloom that won't leave NYC like a colorful new Rue Magazine issue #5!

{style} nantucket in the city

A friend of mine had a Nantucket themed party this past weekend and it may have been the best idea ever! My seer-suckers weren't really working, so I decided to go more Grey Gardens style instead.  I definitely need to smile more-no more chronic bitch face!

{Happy Friday}

Super exciting weekend ahead. Off to see the McQueen exhibit this evening & have a Nantucket themed birthday bash tomorrow. Happy Friday, indeed!

{When darkness falls}

I was pleasantly surprised see the interior of Sharon & Ozzy Osbourne's newer LA home, seeing that the last house was much, much darker with rich colors.  It seems so bright & it still managed to bring their quirky'ness into each room!

Prince Lauder, a Mexican artist, creates colorful pieces reminiscent of the pop influence circa Andy Warhol, no?
