{ behind the scenes } with the coveteur

love these behind-the-scenes snaps of bunny & me at home, from my shoot with the coveteur. check out similarly intimate glimpses from the coveteur's other stylish home tours on their fun tumblr!!
{ FYI: the blouse i'm wearing is available HERE // the pup, however, is one in a million! }

{ currently } at home

i'm constantly, subtly rearranging my spaces. here's the living room, circa yesterday afternoon. newest updates include: turning the lucite desk-cum-dining-table base on its side, repurposing the piece into a coffee table // fresh lampshades // replacing my worn-to-shreds barcelona chair with a cozy black velvet wingback // picking this delightful footstool up on amazon.com.

{ tales of endearment }

i'm a HUGE fan of natalie joos's vintage-centric site, tales of endearment (i've blogged about it before), and as such was massively flattered when she emailed me, expressing an interest in scoping out my own humble vintage collection. what ensued was a truly delightful morning, spent playing dress-up around the house. natalie, please pop by again any time!!

{ a-tisket a-tasket } my yellow summer basket

as you may have noticed from my copious costume posts, i'm mostly an itty-bitty-bag kind of girl, who prefers to carry just the essentials. however, for super-busy days when i really do need to bring my whole life (and/or my dog) around town with me, this colorful crocodile number has become my go-to. yes, bunny fits very comfortably (and adorably!) inside:

on a related (to-this-picture) note, say hello to my new marble + syroco entry table/shelf. picked this puppy up for $10 at brimfield last month. not bad, eh?
