event inspiration {preppy in pastels}

When I saw the photograph of this lovely this bride against such stunning wallpaper I knew that that it was the perfect color inspiration for a preppy affair. I love the softness and sophistication that the touches of blue and yellow add to the classic pink and green preppy palette.

thank you trina turk!

There was a day last summer when I was getting dressed for dinner in one of my trina turk ensembles and was thinking "how cool would it be to have a line of home accessories from her?" A few days later I realized that she had opened a home store but was bummed that the products weren't available online for those of us that don't live in Palm Springs. Ok, so long story short--she has a new line of pillow and rugs that is going to be available online "soon"! I for one am thrilled and love the images of them from the summer 2009 look book:





The styles totally appeal to my inner prep! And the icing on the cake is the beautiful new line of outdoor/indoor fabric she has designed for schumacher.





Ok, enough day dreaming about summer and lounging by the pool--back to work for me!
