Current Crushes

Gretchen Jones is making me super excited about Project Runway again...finally a girl on PR who is a talented designer and has amazing personal style! Loving her line mothlove found through the super cool Alison - writer for the Seattle Times - thanks Ali! Set your tivos!!




I never get tired of black & whites of my favorite movie stars...I love the unselfconscious vanity of Brigitte, the relaxed Ingrid, and the juxtaposition of the chic Grace & vulnerable Marilyn beachside...this page has an excellent collection
found via Milk


How great is the new line Leroy & Perry from luxe knitwear gurus Lutz & Patmos? organic, eco friendly fabrics, super wearable styles and more accessible price points?? Sold!!
available at Bows + Arrows
If I'm not doing the over the knee Frye I might finally splurge on these n.d.c boots I've had my eye on for a while - especially after they were heartily endorsed by my fellow Leo Kate!




Finally, I spent yesterday morning with Flora & Nadia of Revelry discussing a much needed house makeover...I knew I was in good hands when they pulled these images for me...now I'm excited to sit back and let them work their magic! 

Gotta Run - Busy day and Phoenix tonight - although apparently the Rufus show last night was AMAZING...now I'm kicking myself for not getting a babysitter 2 nights in a row...do yourself a favor and go see him when he hits your town...

  7. I forgot that PR started a new season...must check the DVR as soon as I get back! Glad you like the boots. :). Check out A Mano (www.shopamano.com) for some other great ones. Whenever I'm in Seattle, I have to exercise extreme willpower to resist trying on everything!

  9. Ah, so much to love in this post. First, that table cloth in the last image. Beautiful and the dark book shelves above. Hope you plan to share photos of your before and afters. And I also am loving all those bw images.

  10. Love to know that Gretchen from PR has her own line! She has a little bit of an ego but suppose you need one in that biz. Missed last weeks so need to get back into the PR groove.
