pretty underthings

i’ve been obsessing over feminine, vintage-inspired undergarments lately. these spotted on everything fabulous are at the tipy-top of my list.

a flower for your window

wouldn’t this vase be pretty in your kitchen window? repurposing beautiful things always makes my heart pitter-patter.

to have and have not

we just returned from a wonderful, sunny weekend in chicago. saturday night we made dinner for my parents and watched one of my new favorite bogart movies: to have and have not. i came across this photo on the sartorialist tonight, and lingered on it for a moment. i just love that sassy look from the girl in the oxfords, reminds me of lauren bacalls’ character, “slim”.

definitely a must-see for film noir fans.

picnic supplies

last sunday evening, nick and i threw together a little impromptu picnic by the lake. just the two of us, avocado and tomato wraps, our new nikon d90, and a blanket. the crisp may weather was amazing.

still, i would loved to have this basket, a few delicious hunks of cheese, and these vintage utensils. perfect for meals by the lake. we’re hoping to make it a sunday ritual, at least during these warmer months.
