Friday Favorites

My wish list for fun, summery items has been growing exponentially by the day.  Whether that includes a meant-to-be-noticed card holder, graphic tumblers for a barbecue or intricate nude wedges, I am equally mesmerized.   My weekend is filled with wedding festivities for one of my best friends, but I might have to slip in a quick trip to Anthropologie for that bubbled vase.  I’ve already started thinking of different sangria/lemonade/iced tea options that would be as pretty to display as they would be to drink.

Oh what a fun collage. It’s been a long winter (even in LA) so I’m looking forward to exploiting it as much as possible. The polka-dot headband with those sunglasses would be an awesome pair!

Love your blog and love your style. I’m far far away from the US and I’m very precautious about internet shopping, but I’m using your tips and ideas to search for similar stuff in my country. The wedges are out of my league but definitively are the best item in your list.
Congratulations for your Coach handbag, is beautiful.

Love your new favorites, especially the dress, shoes and pitcher! I was wondering if you had any advice for a new blogger about how to get the word out (in addition to daily postings) and if there was anything in specific that you’ve done in order to obtain some of the wonderful partnerships that you have (such as Coach)? Your feedback would be great!!
