P&P = Proenza&Preen.

Proenza Schouler and Preen were easily my two favorite collections this season with their unique textiles and impeccable styling.  I could hardly narrow it down to the favorites below.

show some leg

It's official. I'm tired of tights.  I'm looking forward to being able to show off the gams this spring with airy dresses and structured shorts.  I love these looks featured on InStyle. I particularly love the dress on Emma Watson - the girl can do no wrong in the style department. 

hiatus

Sorry for the hiatus - major hardship calls for a bit of a break from the blogosphere.  Some days posting helps take your mind of things, but most days it's just hard to be inspired.  Hopefully I'll be back at it shortly.  In the meantime, these are a few places I would love to spend the day in right about now:

Throw Blanket

I have quite a few DIY projects that I've seen online that I really want to try sometime.  I'm just a little apprehensive about my skill level and patience to see it through.  This DIY throw blanket would be a really fun project - now all I need is a sewing machine and the perfect fabric.  Then just add good book (or my new Kindle!) and nook of the sectional couch and you're set.

FULL TUTORIAL HERE.

 final product!  now work backwards...

Materials

• Wool or wool-blend fabric; size depends on how large you’d like your throw to be. My fabric is 60″ wide and I purchased 1.5 yards, for a total throw size of 60″ x 52″, which is a nice size for general, lazy-everyday use.
• Trim, enough to cover the two raw edges of your fabric plus a few extra inches
• Sharp scissors
• Straight pins
• Sewing machine and matching thread 

chandeliers

Recently purchased a chandelier.  Now just trying to figure out how I'd like to incorporate it into my apartment.  Most likely it will need to find a home in my bedroom since I have three roommates - and where do you put a chandelier when you share your common areas with three other girls?!  It was an impulse buy, but one that I am extremely excited about!

love song... for coffee.

Random video I came across that Ashton Kutcher and his step-daughter Scout put together... In an unexpected twist I actually really love her voice, but above all else I love coffee. Mmm, on that note....
