the perfect mix . . .

On this gloomy morning, I needed a little burst of colors to brighten up my day. This ensemble by the ever so lovely Lucy of Lucy Laucht did just that. The color combination with the nude shoes, colorful statement necklaces and brown accessories is fresh and inspiring. Just what the doctor ordered during April showers.

blog crush: miss moss

This is a beautiful find, thank you A Cup of Jo for introducing me to the loveliest blog I've come across in a while. Miss Moss is quite clever - pairing old vintage poster and pamphlets with street style images from The Sartorialist. My favorite is the green skirt next to the Toulouse-Lautrec. I'm speechless, the vibrant colors take my breath away.

Loving these? Be sure to head over to Miss Moss's blog - I guarantee you'll be drooling over all of her daily blog posts!

blog crush: what katie ate

This time of year I start to experiment with new recipes with what's in season. I discovered What Katie Ate through inspiration for wellbeing, where Daniella warned her readers "beware: site may cause instant hunger due to seriously amazing photos/recipes..." well, she was right. I got sucked in and now I want to make every single recipe. Not only do all of the recipes sound delicious (I'll be making the pumpkin risotto this week), but the photos and presentation is beautiful. I'll be checking Katie's blog regularly for new recipes - hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Cheers!
