JUMPING!!!

I squealed this morning when I opened my email to find out that John Mayer is coming to the Gorge this summer. And co-headlining with Keith Urban. And the Avett Brothers are opening. Could it get any more epic?!!! NOPE. I will be there!

Chocolate

Delicious? Yep. Well, I am assuming it is delicious considering it is chocolate. If only this cake wasn't a picture.

Watch as these adorable children reenact The Hills. It is entertaining. I don't watch the show but I am sure it is pretty accurate.

Oh, Zac Posen

I gasped today when I walked into Target and saw the Zac Posen for Target Floral Print Brocade Dress. Holy hell, it is beautiful. I walked past it a couple of time but resisted temptation. I didn't even try it on. That is will power at its finest.

Check it out here.

Fantastic! I cannot wait. Eric, Alexander Skarsgård, is so good looking.

Tracing

Here are some wonderful headboard inspiration photos! I have yet to invest in a headboard. Always on the lookout though. Which one is your favorite? Or is it too hard decide?

see those chairs....

Okay, how fantastic are these olive green velvet chairs?!!!! I cannot get them out of my head! There are four of them for only $135! I know, right? I hope when I move these will be suitable in my new place because I LOVE THEM! Oh, they are comfy too. Need to stop thinking about them. Need to stop thinking about them. Need to stop thinking about them.

April 22

About a month ago at work I had this little conversation with my boss.

Boss: Do you think you could come in on a Thursday and work?

Me: Sure. What day?

Boss: (looking at his calendar. laughing to himself). Can you work on Earth Day?

Me: Oh, April 22nd. Yeah, of course.

Boss: You actually know what day Earth Day is on?

Me: Well, yes!

I always loved Jonathan Adler. He just makes everything happier. These pieces are all just so fabulous.

Eyelet

Could this 60's cotton eyelet dress get any cuter? No seriously, this is perfection. This would make such an adorable wedding dress. From the fabulous vintage clothing boutique, Xtabay, in Portland. Everything in the store is fantastic.

Radiant

By now I am sure you have seen these photos. But seriously, damn girl. I am proud to be a fellow redhead. Thank you Christina Hendricks.

"There are better words than beautiful. Radiant, for instance. It’s an underused word. It’s a very special word. ‘You are radiant.’ Also, enchanting, smoldering, intoxicating, charming, fetching."

Wheat

I saw this Sheaf of Wheat table in Lonny Magazine (issue 3) and immediately fell in love. It is so whimsical and fantastic! And they have one on VandM (one of my favorite websites to browse). So who wants to purchase this little beauty for me and send it to me? You can occasionally find them on ebay too!

Buy it here.

In need of a vacay

I need to go here. I would like to go to Portugal so I can stay at Vila Vita Parc Resort & Spa. Yep. wonderful!

Right here.

Lea

I love this look and Polyvore. (and of course, Glee too!)

get the look by nookie featuring Black Queen skirts

Dance

I was just introduced to this song and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I figured I would pass it on to you! Enjoy. Caro Emerald is wonderful. Seriously, even song is fabulous.

Bid

I really want a school pull down map. I think it would best awesome as artwork or as a headboard. I would prefer a world map though. Bid on this one right here.
