Red Letter Words & Pink Pig

I wanted to introduce you to two extremely fabulous shops (if you haven't been already!) that are now sponsoring Brunch at Saks. The first is Red Letter Words, where the amazing Dee creates beautiful, faith-inspired art that not only looks gorgeous on your wall, but has significance and meaning behind it. Dee's uses the power of words in her pieces to display messages of hope, love, faith, family, and inspiration- they're sure to standout wherever you put them. Her art is truly unique and such a delight!


The second shop that I am so excited to tell you about is Pink Pig, which, in the owner's words, "offers an irresistible blend of New York City style and rural charm out of an old carriage house." The store is absolutely amazing; filled sophisticate NYC city girl-meets-vintage charm-meets-shabby chic all wrapped into one! The clothing, jewelry, accessories, and furniture will all be must-haves once you see them! The best part? Pink Pig is a green business and uses low- or no-VOC products to paint and distress their furniture, and offers organic clothing, bedding, and accessories!

Happy Tuesday xoxo

Victorian Rebel

I recently came across this amazing jewelry and accessories line, Marquis & Camus, and I was instantly enamored. Their pieces are edgy, elegant, and overall exquisite. If one of these pieces just so happened to end up in my hands on V-Day, let's just say I would NOT be disappointed! Ha! *Hint-hint, K (if you ever read this ;)* I paired the jewelry with this lovely photo from Elle online. Enjoy loves!

DIY: Valentine's Day Candy Bar

I recently saw this post on wrapping a candy bar, so I thought I would give it a try since Valentine's Day is right around the corner. It was super fast, easy, and cheap! Total cost = $12.47. The scrapbook paper was on sale at Michaels for $0.20 per sheet, as was the twine for only $0.69, and the Hershey bars were 10 for $10. (I used the larger bars because of the sale, but the standard size will work fine too)


How to: Cut paper to the size of outer Hershey wrapper (I unfolded one and used it as a template); place bar upside down on paper (print side down) and fold over one side- taping securely; fold over opposite flap and tape; wrap twine around & tie bow; draw with a marker and cut a heart out of pink, red, or brown paper; tape heart to bar.

Simple, right?! I am sure there are tons of variations to this (stickers, ribbons, etc.), so don't be afraid to try anything. I thought a poem would be cute written on a bigger heart cut-out. These bars would be perfect for a family get-together, birthday party, baby shower, wedding favors, or just for your counter.

Have a good weekend xoxo

My Dream House

Ok, I just about fell out of my chair when I found this house! Seriously, this.is.my.dream.house.y'all. The crown molding; coffered oval ceilings mirroring the harlequin mosaic marbled flooring; silvery-blue covered walls; the bevy of tall and grand windows- I must stop because I can go on and on. Oh, and the best part about this house? It was the grand prize in a lottery that benefited cancer research funds in Canada!

So gorgeous! xoxo

Neutrals Create Beauitful Spaces

I'm really into neutrals lately, and have even switched up my bedroom decor to go with a creme, tan, and beige theme. It sounds kind of blah, but it feels so clean and crisp, and makes me happy. When I came across this Malibu Lake house (yes, we actually have a lake in Malibu here- it's not all beach) with a neutral color theme, I immediately saved it to my inspiration folder.
