How cool is that?! Looks simply amazing (not that I had any doubts :)
You guys are starts in the making!
Marrakech: a tale of the French television commercial that we were really in
Oh my. Do you remember the French television commercial my family and I were in, shot just a few weeks ago to promote tourism to Marrakech? Well, it's out! Voila..... the extracts (about 1/2 the commercial) sent to me by Sigma Productions. Eeek! Be kind:-) Pssst.........and come visit...
LOVE! Was it on sale? THey're having such awesome discounts right now! I have a similar one from Mason by Michelle Mason, also from Barney's (natch!). That store is my kryptonite!
Fabulous Find!
It may be pretty rainy and blah outside, but that doesn't mean I have to dress all blah! I found this gem of a raincoat at Barney's CO-OP a couple weeks ago. This Ali & Ro jacket is nylon with 3/4 sleeves, gold accents, and an optional hood. Stylish yet simple, I'm in love.
Deadwood and Arrested Development! Two shows that I happily watch over and over again, and would kill for new episodes of!
I was SO upset when I thought Jeff had died! And equally irritated by the hoax. But I have GOT to get my hands on this movie! And if you ever convince emma to do a recording of her reading the phonebook, I'll totally buy a copy!
Jeff Goldblum is Alive and Well
I don't know what to say about the passing of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett yesterday, except that it's very sad in all sorts of ways, and I feel terrible for their loved ones. I'm going to post instead about Jeff Goldblum who was the victim of a cruel hoax yesterday, when it was erroneou...
Thanks Bloomacious for sharing my picks! San Francisco is such a great city, it was hard to narrow down my faves...
Weekend Getaway | Anne Sage's San Francisco!
I asked one of my favorite bloggers, Anne Sage of The City Sage, who lives in my old stomping grounds of San Francisco to give us a tour of some of her favorite spots. What Anne came up with we just love! Here's a look... Best Girls’ Day Out: Crown and Crumpet If the words ‘tea time’ make ...
Oh my goodness gracious! Bacon, melted cheese, pizza crust? Could this possibly get any better? Next time I host a brunch, I'm SO going to try this!
Breakfast Pizza
Oh, Michael Ruhlman, what have you done to us? Food writer extraordinaire Michael Ruhlman recently had a breakfast pizza on his blog. We are highly suggestible, and happened to have fresh mozzarella on hand, so we made breakfast pizza this morning. It was good good good. (The picture above ...
Thank you thank you thank you! Since leaving my job at a boutique ad agency to pursue writing and blogging full time, I've felt SO out of the loop in this department! Thank you for recognizing that this information goes hand in hand with the great topics that you already cover. I am a loyal fan already :)
Introducing Bloomacious Biz!
Not to go all type A on you, but in addition to all the other things we have going on over the next few weeks (our Oscar Showcase, and the new Deals & Steals page) we're also launching our Bloomacious Biz page. We're not all that crazy, this is actually a re-imagined version of a fairly pop...
Thank you my darling for the link love! And your deals and steals finds are SO good already---a sale at shopbop AND on j brand jeans? be still my heart!
Link Envy! Some Stories You Gotta See.
We missed our regular weekend Link Envy feature this week because we focused on the Grammy Awards, but wanted to share some great links with you, plus here's more from around the web today. Above, are 4 faces that are making their way to a coffee table near you. TheCut has amassed a collect...
Oof---I can definitely appreciate how cool this looks on models, but it is one trend that I will DEFINITELY not be participating in. I have really broad shoulders to begin with, and would end up looking like a football linebacker if I were to sport this style!
Give me a basic v-neck to draw the eye inward from my massive shoulders to my narrow waist, and I'm happy!
Emily Mortimer, Chloe and Big Shoulders, What Do They Mean To You?
Emily Mortimer stepped out on the pink carpet for the premiere of the Pink Panther last night in this lovely Chloe dress and jacket. She paired gold metallic sandals with a gold clutch and topped off the look with a vintagey rhinestone choker and matching cuff. I love the look which is dre...
Usually I prefer Scarlett's look over Drew, but in this case the reverse is true. Drew's ponytail is perfect for her---a great blend of glam and casual! And I LOVE her eye makeup. Scarlett on the other hand does get lost as a brunette, and I actually find that her dress clashes with her hair!
Scarlett and Drew's Red Carpet Glamour at He's Just Not That Into You Premiere.
The girls were out in Hollywood last night, taking over the red carpet for the premiere of "He's Just Not that Into You". As you can imagine, stylists were on overdrive as they coiffed and accessorized the stars of the film. Drew Barrymore, who's been channeling '70's starlets lately (h...
the rooms AND the outfits: absolute perfection! i especially love that one touch of warm wood in the top room. so unexpected and lovely!
Live In Your Couture ~ Rooms on the Inspiration of Chanel.
It's impossible for me to look at some of the couture collections in Paris this week and not see the possibilities of them incorporated into interiors. Here a few rooms that remind of the latest showing from Chanel. photos above: Coco+Kelly, wireimage photos above: domino, wireimage
Interestingly, I don't mind the master bedroom! It's got kind of a homey feel to it but is still polished. I think it's sort of channeling my grandma's bedroom though, so I'm biased to think interiors like that are all soft and cuddly...
White House Interiors ~ The Reagan Era
While Nancy Reagan's California style was quite different than her predecessors, the White House Interiors remained fairly similar to the Kennedy renovation. The main changes were in the personal rooms, such as the bedrooms, bathrooms, and family kitchen. The famous Lincoln Bedroom was upd...
Sounds like fun! My husband brought one home a while ago but I was never inspired to try it. Maybe it's time I did! But don't tell him it's cause of you...let's let him think the idea was all his!
Mii and Wii
Jack Black's Mii Many moons ago, when I turned forty, I received a Wii Fit. I had especially requested it. I was very excited about it. I used it for a week or two, and since then, CMR has used the Wii Fit and also used it to play fake golf and tennis. January, as you know, is the month of new ...
Ah, those were the days! I could go for the kind of clean up that only takes 15 minutes, and includes a bathroom break!
Of course I still schedule time for a snack ;)
Have a great weekend!
Wouldn't It Be Loverly
to have a day like this? Add a little yoga, a nap, and some afternoon tea, and I'm in!
What a sweetheart! That smile is winning me over 100%. What a proud mama you must be :)
Have a very happy thanksgiving!
Happy Birthday, Sweet Willa
How can you possibly be six already, sweet girl?
