Weekend wisdom

I created this typographic art myself using a free downloadable glitter background and text. This was my mantra in my younger, party hard days.

I think I’ll hang it on an inspiration board in my home office as inspiration. An ode to my youth. A reminder to keep my state of mind fresh and current! And when noone is watching… I’ll dance and sing until my mascara runs!

Have a great weekend, whatever you do!

I would love to wake up to this charming alarm clock in the morning

my dream bedroom… the light fixture is a feather chandelier from japan, and all of the cushions & throws in the apartment are faux chinchilla, fox and ivory mink
this is glamorous

the perfect vanity tray styled in black, white, glass and metal accents
this is glamorous

how could I possibly choose from all the glittery shoes I’d own?

the penthouse suits me just fine. high ceilings, big windows and a combination of modern and vintage furniture
chi va piano 

and believe me… I would eat pink cake for breakfast if I could!
call me cupcake
… all kidding aside, yes I love glam and luxury but health, family and friends are the most important things in life! oh yeah, and cake for breakfast!

I got lost in Blogland yesterday and much to my surprise and delight I found myself at the House of Turquoise. Erin put together a post of a festive party – turquoise and hot pink with so many gorgeous accessories and glittery accents! The styling of the event by Tori of Sitting in a Tree Events was photographed by the incredibly talented Joielala Photographie! It is truly a visual cornucopia.

The unexpected pairing of turquoise and pink reminds one that all that glitters is not always gold. I love the combination of white branches and clear baubles with confetti in them, the sequinned stockings in opalescent colours, the cloches with tiny white trees in them on lovely turquoise dinner plates – oh my!! I dream of being invited to parties like this!! Très chic, très hip.

Ya gotta love these tiny gold reindeer salt and pepper shakers!
