I love this collection of hand drawn type. Too bad I don't have $300 to spare.

Tim Walker Photography
Tim Walker's photography is so enchanting and whimsical.
My boyfriend bought me a Nikon D90 for Christmas, so I've been having fun with it, but there is SO much to learn about photography. Before the gift, I was a point and shoot gal :) Can't wait to learn all the tricks of the trade. Hopefully, you'll see my images improve on this blog.

Lookbook: Summer Tease
The weather has been teasing us in Southern Cali. So I flirted with the hot sun over the weekend -- lounging by the pool, catching some rays.

Modern Decor
Modern designs are so sleek and cool.
I love this reproduction of Herman Miller's Noguchi table from Euro Moderno online store. And $380.00 is a much better price than $1,350.00....not that I could afford either one :)
Dots leather sofa. I like the look of this but I'm not sure if it would be good for lounging in my VS Pinks watching Mad Men.
I love the size of the flowers on this rug.
Henry Miller Cognita storage bench would come in handy.

Dresses, movies and the perfect hair
source: not sure, please let me know if you do
Last Saturday afternoon was spent trying on wedding dresses and I found one that I LOVE!!! Right when I tried on the dress I knew it was the one! It wasn't even one of the original dresses that I picked out but rather a recommendation from the sales girl. I can't wait to show it to you. I think you will love it too.
So this weekend I have lots of non-wedding planning stuff to do. I do have a few errands and such to take care of but after that I MUST see the new Jennifer Aniston movie Bounty Hunter! My fiance cannot figure out why people like Jennifer Aniston movies. I admit not all of them are great but she just has the IT factor and most of them are cute movies. Don't you agree?
source: best week ever
She's on the cover and is featured in W magazine..... must buy.
Btw, doesn't she have the most beautiful hair in the world. What is her secret!!

Send a Little Note
I was in Paper Source stationary store the other day and in awe of their great selection of cards and notes. Dare I say even they are even better than Papyrus? Yes!
What I love about their card selection is that many of the card collections are from individual designers and small design companies.
Two of my favorites:
1. Egg Press
Even though this one is perfect for Valentine's Day, I like to give my fiance love cards all year round.

I love letterpress. It's a bit more expensive but so dainty and pretty.
2. Jenny Sweeney Designs:
I love owls and this one is so creative and cute!

Lookbook: PrettyFine Jewels
I shot this lookbook to promote the re-design of the PrettyFine Jewelry site. It features one of my favorite pairs of earrings in the new Heirra collection. The collection is inspired by tropical getaways -- the perfect accessories for lazy summer days sipping Sangria's while watching the sunset.
I love the iridescent quality of the shells juxtaposed with the silver chains.
I'm still in the process of uploading the new jewelry to the site, but I would love to know what you guys think.
And stay tuned, I'm going to do a giveaway for the lovely UH readers!

Tea for Two
Isn't this tea room adorable?!
Next time I'm in San Francisco, I'll be sipping tea at Crown & Crumpet.
The decor is so cheeky and fun. Their slogan is "A room with tea and wit".
