lox papers/merci beaucoup

How marvelous are these “merci beaucoup” notecards? Jane, who blogs at lox papers, designed and printed these herself with the help of Sesame Letterpress. Love all of her choices: Mrs. Eaves Roman, marigold ink + the saying. Perfection.

Hôtel Silver

I’ve been infatuated with Ginger Kilbane’s Hôtel Silver forever, thanks to Martha Stewart and Ina Garten’s stunning assemblages. My list of things to do in NYC is always much longer than time available, but I think I need to carve out a visit to Bergdorf Goodman this year to check out their collection. I would love any of the pieces shown here, and let’s face it: it would be impossible for me to leave empty handed. I’d settle for a pretty spoon.

There’s just something about this dress that’s captivating. I especially like it against this patinaed/distressed wall: the perfect contrast. From Reem Acra. See the rest of the fall collection at Style.com.

I love how Francisco Costa takes austere designs and infuses them with a bit of romanticism. I’m smitten with the three dresses shown here. So lovely. See the complete Calvin Klein show at Style.com.

Friday Flickr Five

luckymonk

Happy Friday! I’m ready for Friday evening, to be honest. Something along the lines of the photo above. (The ShakeitPhoto app is the best thing ever, by the way.) Fashion week is oodles of fun, and I’m really excited about the direction for fall, but clicking through photos can get time consuming. It’s probably why I really love designers with small collections! And let’s face it, we’re just getting started: there’s still London, Milan, and Paris to go. So let’s get to the Flickring!

  1. A Valentine’s Day Macarons Bouquet
  2. oh, hello new friend
  3. space
  4. love is thicker than forget
  5. Desnudez / Nudity

See you in a bit, as I’m sure that I’ll have something to say about Isaac + Calvin.
