Penny Lane

 What a glorious kitchen! 
I'm having a copper moment. I have said it before and I'll say it again.. Copper is the new gold. Maybe copper had its moment already and I was just asleep that season, who knows? I am saving my pennies for beloved copper pots to hang from a copper pot rack in my future kitchen, as I wear a rose gold watch and mix cake batter in my copper kitchen aid mixer, standing tall and elegant in my Brian Atwood pumps and maybe a gown to boot... Anyways, here are a few of my favorite coppery things...

I really love the pairing of copper with gray and white. via Pinterest
Copper farmhouse sink. Love the copper towel bars just below the sink, too.  Pinterest

 Creative use of space or new measure in home safety protection: shelf over doorway for pots and pans.
 The basin is lovely, a little oversized. Looks like a mini bathtub.

Easy like Sunday morning...

I don't have to write much, do I? I want to make this easy...like Sunday morning...
Enjoy a day of doing nothing...be leisurely...eat with reckless abandon. Relax. Lick your wounds. Respect the Sabbath. Eat some more. Relax. Hair of the dog. Repeat.

Royal Wedding of Monaco!

So I am a day late and a dollar short of posting these fantastically beautiful pictures of the other royal wedding of Charlene Wittstock to Prince Albert of Monaco. After hearing some questionable rumors of their honeymoon, it sounded like anything but. So as I look at these photos for the fifth time, now, I find the stunning Charlene's grin forced, her gait stiff, and her eyes doubtful. But maybe that's just my observation. Heavy is the head that wears the crown, so they say....

Sneak Peak: SJP in Vogue

 Mario Testino photographs the gorgeous Sarah Jessica Parker & brood for Vogue, hitting newsstands next week. I had to share these lovely snaps of the glam momma, her dapper husband, and darling children. 
Off to the Ball....Stunning copper penny. (PS:why isn't copper the new gold? I predict-copper is the  new silver/gold/pewter, name-your-alloy- color...soon...for nails and apparel). Just saying:)
 If only everyday life looked this good! She looks like a mom who never cleans her kids' bedrooms!
 "Are you gonna go my way?" (Lenny Kravitz)-neerrrr neeer ner ner..naeerr rruu rruuu rruuuh! Boys are loud, eh?
 I have no words. I just love this photo.
 Can you imagine cleaning up this kitchen after the shoot? Oy.
 This photo needs to be framed and put on their mantle. This sequin polka dot Valentino is divine,no? Not to mention...the thick moulding around the door is heavenly. (Note to self: future home door casing). 
"If I didn't have kids, I would be at the theater or the ballet every single night of my life," says Parker.
