st. kilda is on my block. st. kilda is everywhere. i love st. kilda, especially these witty matchstick earrings.
after this week, hot pink tops and yellow nails no longer fly. enjoy the summer brights before the cool autumn hues kick in.

bracedlets are fun, durable bracelets, crafted entirely out of orthodontic materials. these colorful, stretchy chains, accented with metal brackets and contrasting elastic rubber bands are meant to be stacked and layered. bracedlets were created by new york orthodontists, marc lemchen and jennifer salzer with the creative help of jennifer’s sister and lulu frost designer, lisa salzer. i wore lulu frost for my wedding, and now that i have a 7 month year old, this may be a more appropriate accessory.
i’m adding a fluorescent yellow bag to my wish list.
the cambridge satchel company’s bags, originally limited to black and tan, are now in these bright, exciting colors.
cambridge satchel was founded in 2008 by julie deane, a new stay-at-home mom, looking for something to do. “i had a list of ideas, things like cake decorating, party planning, and satchels,” deane explains.
good thing she chose leather over icing because these beauties take the cake. and at $250 and under, the price is right.
i am noticing the color orange this summer – from clothing to nails to the sun itself. my husband, who has an internal trend detector, bought me a lovely orange dress from steven alan for my birthday. when i’m not feeling as bold, i love an orange accent, like hourglass’ beautiful red-orange lipstick in muse or essie’s clambake polish. from tangerine to blood orange, this hue will be sure to brighten your mood.

more than a dress; a work of art.

jemma wynne’s aesthetic is the “cashmere hoodie” of jewelry – rich, but comfortable. it’s for the sophisticated woman who embraces a casual ease.

i love these beautiful agate necklaces from brook & lyn. their “surrounded” collection reflects each stone’s central ring surrounded by concentric rings of varying colors and shapes followed by a hand crocheted border and entirely surrounded in rope. here are some gorgeous images from their look book.
i’m head over heals for stone_cold_fox, inspired vintage clothing with immaculate detailing. designer cydney morris references taxidermy stores, native american culture, soft fabrics and jane birkin. these stunning images make my heart flutter and you can best believe a scf piece will be one of my first purchases post pregnancy.

there are some gals who can throw on a little flowered dress or fedora and look sharp as a tack. sure, alexa chung and diane kruger have access to stylists and hairdressers that the rest of us lack, but i don’t think that’s their secret. they possess that “thing” that money can’t buy – an effortless sense of style. i find it really inspiring…with lil’ a dash of “why can’t i look that good in a fedora?”

thylane lena-rose blondeau

thylane is a true, haunting beauty. but why does this make me so sad? perhaps because she is only 10 years old.
