I am in love with this room found on 79 ideas.

Twenty years ago we looked at buying a loft in Tribeca just before work brought us to Nashville.
If life ever brings us back to NY I hope that our loft will look a lot like this one....wide planked floors, huge windows and that "A".

turquoise and green

We are showing a sneak peek of our turquoise and green gingham on Facebook. If you had to pick (you don't) what is your favorite?

lucite love

2012-01-24T08:00:00.000-08:00

I have always loved lucite but lately I find myself obsessing over this style lucite desk. This one is a dream.... lucite, white lacquer and bamboo all on one piece of furniture!

It is from Pieces in Atlanta.
This one is from Horchow.
And for a non white option we have this beauty from Mr. Adler.
I have been thinking about making my own version to showcase our jewelry in the store. I will keep you all in the loop on how it goes.

Two of our children have gone to Camp Spring Creek (which is accredited by Orton-Gillingham).
The head of the Camp Spring Creek is coming to Nashville this Wednesday. If you have a child that struggles with reading I highly recommend that you come find out more about it.

call Dana if you live in Nashville and want to come this Wednesday. 943-3701

Or if you don't live in Nashville you can visit their website and give Suzy a call.

The photo above is our daughter enjoying one of the many fun offerings as her reading skills radically improved.

I know that it is a little early to be thinking about Valentines Day but for those of you who plan ahead I think that this would be a wonderful gift.

$140 is more than most boxes of chocolate but a great deal for an original work of art.

nancy drew

2012-01-17T19:06:00.000-08:00

I started reading The Bungalow Mystery to my 8 year old and I am hooked.
Is it weird to be 46 years old and so excited to hop into bed and finish it?

PS I think that Nancy is the coolest.

gilt group

2012-01-15T20:29:00.000-08:00

Tempting cuff on Gilt Group.

design

2012-01-14T08:49:00.000-08:00

I am working on design the Fall 2012 line.
This vintage pattern is going to be the inspiration for a new dress.
Do you ever wonder where these women got their waists? Did they not have chocolate back then?

hand-me-downs

2012-01-12T08:56:00.000-08:00

I thought it would be fun to share this photo because of the blazer.

I am in love with the fit. It is 3/4 sleeve which shows off the sleeves of my ruffle blouse.

It belonged to my little brother who wore it to school over 20 years ago. After he outgrew it my mother passed it down to her friend with a younger son. After her boys wore it she boxed it up along with other children's clothes and sent it to me.
So if you are looking for a blazer don't forget the boy's department. And don't forget to pass on some of your kids clothes ... you could make someones day.

wrapping paper

2012-01-10T08:22:00.000-08:00

How perfect is this package wrapped by Stephanie at Stephmodo?

winter sale

2012-01-10T06:27:00.000-08:00

Today is the day to grab some of our clothing! (Remember that many of our styles can be worn year round.)

cocktail rings

2012-01-10T06:16:00.000-08:00

I rarely step out at night with out a big cocktail ring on. (The bigger the better.) I have one that looks like this green one that I have worn for at least 10 years and I never get tired of it.

I am loving these from Kate Spade and beyond loving the packaging!
At $46 with an additional 25% off these are perfect to stash in your presents closet.
How about you ...do you like some big bling on your finger?

nashville store

2012-01-09T18:21:00.000-08:00

My brain is about to explode trying to decide if we should do a store in Nashville.

The place that we want to have our store is full with no foreseeable turnover. The other area that I like only has one spot that would work and it is much larger than I need thus making the rent really high.
image via made by girl

I know that a store here is the next step for us I just don't know what to do.

Any words of wisdom?????

vintage patterns

2012-01-06T15:10:00.000-08:00

These are my newest inspirations.

unmentionables

2012-01-06T09:34:00.000-08:00

I have been cleaning out closets and aiming at organization. Now opening my medicine cabinet makes me happy.

My unmentionables drawer is another story but I got a bunch of these at Aerie the other day. The bra was $9 and the panties were $5 at the store. They are not for the perfect look under a t shirt but I am loving them for winter.

How about you? Are you a matching girl? What are your favorite lines for unmentionables?

back down south

2012-01-04T20:08:00.000-08:00

I just realized that I never shared this great photo with you. It was taken by Caroline Fontenot for her blog back down south. This beautiful lady is Lyndal who runs our store in Chattanooga.
She would look cute in a paper bag but I do think that she looks really cute in our Nashville Button Down Dress ...if I do say so myself.

healthy dinner

2012-01-04T08:16:00.000-08:00

A friend sent me this recipe for spaghetti squash sesame noodles with edamame this morning and I had to share it with you. It looks so yummy and happens to be gluten free.

larabar

2012-01-03T10:22:00.000-08:00

I always sit down and enjoy breakfast and dinner but sometimes I eat lunch on the go.
This was my lunch today and it was yummy. I am adding this to my list of grab and go snacks to have on hand.

water colors

2012-01-02T07:56:00.000-08:00

I am in love with these water colors by Carrie Waller.

I never get tired of jam jars.

Happy New Year

2012-01-01T17:31:00.000-08:00

I hope that you have all had a wonderful break. I have loved being away from the office and my computer. We have enjoyed many cozy fires. I have picked up needlepoint again and we have done a lot of organizing around the house.
Tomorrow is our last day off before the office opens and school starts. I am hoping to get a few more things crossed off my list.

thank you notes

2011-12-27T09:11:00.000-08:00

I hope that all of you had a wonderful Holiday. I have enjoyed doing nothing nothing nothing.

I found these adorable print ables by all sorts via Heart Handmade.
Surely my children would be nothing shy of eloquent if writing on such adorable cards.

2011-12-20T07:54:00.000-08:00

I am in love with these DIY ornaments by Maryland Pink and Green.
Glitter is one of my favorite things. Below I have decorated our KAYCE HUGHES gift boxes with some glitter.Are you using some glitter this year? I have a gallon of Elmers glue but have never tried Mod Podge. What do you think...is Mod Podge better?

2011-12-19T20:19:00.000-08:00

I am always measuring my children because they are our in house fit models. This would be perfect for my office to replace my pencil marks.
If you want your own you can find it on Etsy at Kims Sister.

2011-12-19T10:24:00.000-08:00

One of my favorite things to do is to search Goodwill for vintage Christmas decorations. One of my favorite combinations is felt and hand sewn sequins. I love the combination of cozy and sparkly. This is a hanging pocket thing that I found for less than a dollar.

I think that it would be great inspiration for a garland or small ornaments with someones initials for the tree or a gift.

ice ice baby

2011-12-18T21:44:00.000-08:00

I am a big fan of costume jewelry. I stumbled upon these beauties from Kohls. I have not seen them in real life but I am thinking that they would look great in my stocking.
The bracelet is $23.
The ring is $18.

Also Scott if you get two bracelets and one ring it would be free shipping.

spring shoes

2011-12-18T20:45:00.000-08:00

Spring is feeling very far away but these spring shoes (from mod cloth) caught my eye.

Christmas at our house

2011-12-18T16:06:00.000-08:00

Here is another part of our kitchen/family room. The Santas were a gift from my mother years ago and the bear was an early gift from her this year.
The greenery above the picture was made with clippings from our tree combined with a bow and berries on wire from Good Will.
I love adding little touches like an ornament on our dog sign. These are two of my favorite bottle brush trees.

Christmas at our house

2011-12-18T12:11:00.000-08:00

I have loved seeing other bloggers post pictures of how they are decorating for the Holidays and thought that I would share some photos of our house.

This is part of our kitchen/family room.
I love using some of the decor that my children make at school. They add something that even the most perfect vintage decor can't touch.

PS As I shot these my husband said that "people might think that our house is always this clean and organized". Please know that I shoot the pretty stuff and step over the mess!

More to come...

After I pick up some of the mess..

eddie ross

2011-12-17T15:15:00.000-08:00

I have a thing for vintage pins and I love how Eddie has made them into napkin rings. He even found them in Nashville.

I am excited about having time to set a pretty table this week!

Thanks Eddie for inspiring us again!

sale

2011-12-17T15:07:00.000-08:00

We are having a sale so if you have been thinking about any of our clothing this is your weekend.
I have barely thought of Christmas shopping but I am planning to hit it hard Monday morning. How about you? I bet you are already done.

Nashville's Nutcracker

2011-12-17T07:45:00.000-08:00

One of my favorite things about this time of year is going to see the Nutcracker. I am not sure what I love more the dancing or the costumes.
or the adorable children..
or getting to watch my beautiful Sophie below...
How about you...is the Nutcracker part of your Holiday plans?

Christmas decorating

2011-12-14T16:37:00.000-08:00

I was so excited when I was contacted about choosing something from the fun website called treetopia. I love collecting Christmas things that uniquely go in different rooms of our home. Our office is fun and girlie and one year I hope to have a colorful Christmas tree from tree topia.
It was hard to choose between their Christmas wreaths and garlands but I decided on this pink one for our office mantle. Here it is making things merry and bright...

What do you think? Do you like pink for Christmas?

chic list

2011-12-13T19:16:00.000-08:00

I was beyond thrilled to be on keep it chic's gift guide this year.
If you don't already read this blog I think that you should head on over. (It is one of my favorites.)

GIVEAWAY Day:8

2011-12-11T18:23:00.000-08:00

I skipped a few giveaways but here is today's?

Can we talk about how cute my tree is in the background. Is there such thing as an addiction to gluing vintage ornaments to Styrofoam? If so I think I have it. This tree still need some tinsel around the edge but I made it for Sophie's room that is yellow, navy and turquoise.
By the way I am crazy about these velvet jeans. I have already worn mine a few times and they are so fun. They have a little bit of stretch and can be worn with super high heals. They are a expensive for pants but I will wear them a lot and because they are classic I will be loving them for years to come.

love

2011-12-08T20:18:00.001-08:00

Love these treasures from Etsy.

2011-12-08T19:47:00.000-08:00

I am in love with these!
(Vintage toys and bottle brush trees are two of my favorite things.)
I found them on Michelle's Etsy sight via her blog Vintage Junky.
How perfect would they be in a little boy's room.

Now what was I really looking for?......Oh yes blue velvet.

angel sing

2011-12-08T16:12:00.000-08:00

I love these vintage angels from Etsy.

Hark the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled"
Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"

gen's party

2011-12-07T18:34:00.000-08:00

My fun fabulous friend Gen had a party this past Friday. Before I even got inside I had to stop and drool over her latest find. (The metal bamboo table that she found in the perfect shade of red.)

Being the queen of last minute I was running through the mall trying to track down red tights at 6:30 and grabbed a bottle of wine out of the fridge as my hostess gift.

Sara seems to be a little better at planning ahead. She walked in with this wonderful tree in a vintage pot perfectly decorated.

It was a Santa Swap party and this was Gen's present. (as anyone who knows her could have guessed)

Here is her fun festive table before the food...

And here I am with 3 of the most creative and fun women that I am thankful to have as friends.
Gen, me, Sara and Melodie.

PS Don't lean back against a wall when you are about to have your picture taken.

DIY ornaments

2011-12-06T15:28:00.000-08:00

I am in love with DIY ornaments by Jen of Made By Girl.
I might have to incorporate them into a place setting this week. I wonder if glitter would work too?

party shoes

2011-11-30T06:13:00.000-08:00

I have a thing for shoes that are a bit on the wild side. On a date night or at a party I love to wear fun shoes with one of my classic dresses. And I love being as tall as my husband!

These are my favorites from Top Shop.

How about you? Have you found some party worthy shoes this year?

ikea love

2011-11-29T13:30:00.000-08:00

I wanted to share some recent Ikea loves.

These duvet covers with matching pillows were $14 a set and that makes me a much nicer mom when I find magic markers on them.
These are hard melamine storage containers. They are the perfect red and I though for sure that they would crack or melt or something but I have had them for a few months and I am still so in love with them.
I couldn't find either of these on line but they were there a month ago. How about you? What is your favorite cheap find lately?

2011-11-29T09:44:00.000-08:00

I hope that you all had a happy Thanksgiving.

We had a wonderful and relaxing day.
Scott make a very yummy 27 pound turkey.

My daughters did a great job creating a pretty table.

Everyone pitched in and we enjoyed a yummy meal followed by watching Planet Earth.
Later we went to a friends and had delicious deserts. I am looking forward to tomorrow when we will pick out our tree, decorate and eat turkey sandwiches.

vintage christmas book

2011-11-21T12:39:00.000-08:00

I love finding inspiration in vintage books.
I found this treasure a few months ago and I am having fun finding inspiration for the store and our house.
This one is made out of upside down cups that become bells. There are so many fun things that I can imagine doing with this shape. It is great for small areas.
This is an idea for decorating a box. Something about it feels very Kate Spade to me.

How about you? Are you getting excited about decorating for the holidays?

last Christmas

2011-11-21T11:18:00.000-08:00

Last year at this time I stocked up on vintage ornaments.

How could I resist these in my favorite shade of pink?
I used a hot glue gun to glue the tops of the ornament on and then wired them onto a frame.

These photos don't do it justice. The combination of all of the different colors and textures are so beautiful.
I made this after Christmas so I am excited to use it this year.
I did learn a few things. Next time I would use something flat (the ornaments like to slide to the back of this frame). I also learned that a little mouse was fond of some of the thread covered ornaments.

I am so excited to make some more goodies with my growing stash of ornaments. Does anyone have a glue that they love? Sometimes I get frustrated that my hot glued items pop off.

the zhush

2011-11-20T15:24:00.000-08:00

I love Sue's chic yet easy going aesthetic. Her blog is always full of great inspiration and her shop is the perfect place to pick up something special.

Here are some of my favorites...

apron sale

2011-11-18T14:25:00.000-08:00

We are offering our polka dot aprons at 50% off this weekend.

I think that they make a great gift paired with a cookbook.

Then again I could be accused of being a hoarder when it comes to vintage cook books.

gluten free

2011-11-16T18:04:00.001-08:00

This wheat grinding, bread baking mom just found out that my 10 year old has celiac disease.

I am trying to figure out how to navigate this new territory. I am thankful for my friend Melodie who has already emailed me some of her favorites.

If any of you have any gluten free tips for me don't hold back.

Less is more

2011-11-16T07:12:00.000-08:00

When it comes to kids toys I believe that less is more. I like to buy things that encourage imaginative play and creativity. How creative are these stickers that turn egg cartons and boxes into cool toys?

crazy busy day

2011-11-14T18:54:00.001-08:00

Lately my days seem to fall into one of two categories: busy or crazy busy. Today was crazy busy. After getting the kids off to school we jumped in the car and drove 2 hours to Chattanooga. My store window had very sad white walls. I taped off stripes every 11 inches, painted the wall pink and took off the tape.
Mission accomplished. If these three had heads you would be able to see how much happier they are.
Wet paintbrush in hand I was able to paint a mirror, (Ikea... thought I was buying white but when I opened it it was natural), cover a bulletin board in fabric, have some lunch and look at all of the new arrivals. We were able to jump in the car and be back in town at 6.

Crazy busy.

toast & laurel

2011-11-11T10:21:00.000-08:00

I am starting to get excited about the holidays. Toast and Laurel must share my love of polka dots and stripes.

lilly pulitzer

2011-11-10T17:47:00.001-08:00

A very special person celebrates her 80 th birthday today.

As a little girl I remember hiding in the racks of clothing at her warehouse.
As a teenager I worked in her store on Long Island.
As a twenty something I got married and Lilly had my rehearsal dinner at her house. (That day her house was being photographed for a book called Tropical Style:Private Palm Beach. How fun are the table decor that she did?)
I admire Aunt Lilly for so many reasons but if I could only have one of her gifts it would be her ability to make people feel so loved and welcomed in her home.

crazy big sale

2011-11-09T14:47:00.000-08:00

I am in love with these prints by Jayde A Cardinalli.

I hope that you all are having a good Wednesday. It is feeling like Thursday to me.

ballet flats

2011-11-07T17:52:00.000-08:00

Run don't walk to your nearest Old Navy. I found these flats there the other day and am in love. They are only $19.94 plus if you get this coupon you can take an additional 30% off. I got the navy ones.

brooke morgan photography

2011-11-03T18:48:00.000-07:00

I wanted to do a little bragging on this beautiful woman who models my women's clothing. If I looked this good I would probably sit home all day and look in the mirror but Brooke is a teacher by day a model on weekends...
and somehow finds the time to be a world class photographer... Yes she took these beautiful photos of someone else that should just sit in front of a mirror all day.

To see more of Brooke's beautiful work you can visit her blog.

jewelry

2011-11-03T12:47:00.000-07:00

I am really excited about the new tortoiseshell jewelry that we just added to the store. The quality is excellent and I have found myself wearing these pieces day after day. They look great with all of our rich colors and neutrals.

I also couldn't resist showing off my two oldest daughters! Where did the time go? It seems like last year they were modeling my toddler line.

I would love to know what pieces are you favorites.

olive manna

2011-10-30T20:51:00.000-07:00

I feel relaxed just looking at this web site.

I am going to lay awake tonight thinking about all of the ways to use these wood tags.
I love sticky notes but usually take the pink and blue from the 4 pack and leave the orange and green for someone else. These would be perfect.
And I love twill tape.
All of these beauties and lots more can be found at olive manna. With October almost over I am starting to get excited about making things for the Holidays.

They had me at red....but add in shinny and I am in love!

nashville talent

2011-10-28T15:53:00.000-07:00

I love these beautiful photos of my friend Sara's home taken by the talented Tec Peteja for anthology magazine.

Sara's blog is full of great party inspirations. Check out both of these beautiful nashville blogs if you don't already.

prints

2011-10-28T09:24:00.000-07:00

I have been fascinated by printing lately. (Perhaps it is the empty wall over the crib in the store that has me thinking.) I love how they feel modern yet not mass produced. These three by bio robot would be a great grouping....or the start of a new collection.

Halloween Party

2011-10-27T16:01:00.000-07:00

This week we went to a fun party at my friend Gen's. As usual it was the perfect combination of a little store bought a little home made and a lot of creativity.

You can see more on her blog.

party time!

2011-10-27T13:36:00.000-07:00

I thought that I would put this out to my blog friends....let us know if you know of any one.

Hope everyone if having a great weekend.

fall line

2011-10-26T20:03:00.000-07:00

It is such a treat when people send us photos.

It is a funny thing that we work really hard on a line and it goes out the door but it doesn't seem real until we see pictures like this one.
How adorable are these three all wearing shirts from our Fall line?

another pretty pumpkin

2011-10-26T18:38:00.000-07:00

I am not a big fan of Halloween but I do like pretty. This is a very pretty pumpkin in my book. (no pun intended) I found it over at Simply Seleta.

white pumpkins

2011-10-23T14:28:00.000-07:00

I am loving these white pumpkins that Erin found at the flea market.
Beautifully photographed in their new home.

party skirt

2011-10-19T09:33:00.000-07:00

We put these party skirts on sale for this week only.

friends

2011-10-18T16:55:00.000-07:00

Here are two of my favorite photos from yesterday's photo shoot. They are from our spring line that will come out next year.

I am really excited about them and am praying for a few more warm days so that we can finish.

exhausted

2011-10-17T15:00:00.000-07:00

I am exhausted.

Saturday morning my friend and I weren't paying attention and instead of doing a 4.5 mile hike we did a 9 mile one. (We realized this at about mile 6.) Today even my arms ache.

And today we photographed some of our children's spring line. Three of my children plus a friend's adorable 3 children. There was lots of chaos but hopefully we got some good pictures. I am hoping to be in bed very very early.

felt dolls

2011-10-14T16:36:00.000-07:00

I am in love with these felt doll kits from Pearl Studio.

They make me wish that I had a nursery to decorate.

pantry

2011-10-11T07:09:00.000-07:00

I moth and some of his closest friends inspired me to clean out our pantry last week. After a fresh coat of paint no one was allowed back in with out a visit to the dishwasher and a new label. We aren't looking as good as this picture found via PVE but close enough!

pink or green

2011-10-05T11:15:00.000-07:00

I am so in love with these i pad cases by Juicy Couture. I don't have an i pad but would use these beauties any way.

The only problem is deciding what color I like more. I found them via my friend Gen's blog.

storage love...

2011-10-05T09:02:00.000-07:00

What is it about a beautiful storage item that makes my heart beat faster? Is it the dream that I could be organized?
I am in love with these enamel boxes from West Elm. The orange would be perfect in my son's room or should I get red for my kitchen?

the hills

2011-10-03T09:39:00.000-07:00

It is always a treat to see how other people style our clothes. The hills magazine in Kansas City featured our dress and jacket on the cover.
Our dress, skirt and shirt in this shot....
and our dress here...
If you have a friend in KS send them over to the Little House kids store to get all of these cute outfits.

tag sale

2011-09-28T14:08:00.000-07:00

My Interior Life and some other bloggers are having a sale this weekend! I am definitely going to try my hardest to be there and it would be fun to meet some other bloggers.
Hope to see you there!

lulie wallace

2011-09-28T09:20:00.000-07:00

One of the things I enjoy most about surfing the web is finding new artists. I love these fresh works by Lulie Wallace.

They remind me of a treasure from the 60's.
They would add instant vibe and character to any room.
And they are reasonable priced.
One of these days I am going to pick up my paint brushes again but for now I am going to enjoy looking at what some of my talented web friends are creating.

sparkly

2011-09-26T06:51:00.000-07:00

I am in love with this idea of a little sparkle in a vase from the book Decorate found on the blog J.W.K..
This week my daughter Clare turns 10 so I think that I will be on the hunt for some sequins for her party.

2011-09-15T15:21:00.000-07:00

Love at first sight.
I am not sure how I found this beautiful blog but it was truly love at first sight.
I couldn't help but scroll through every last post.
Beautiful color photographs.
beautiful black and white photographs.
She is like a photographer and stylist all rolled into one.

And then I see that one of her adorable subjects is wearing one of my dresses (the pink one).
Made my day!
You can head on over to her etsy site Skippy Designs to get your own lovely images.
Now if only I could get those red shoes in my size.

brown fall shoes

2011-09-15T12:27:00.000-07:00

I am on the lookout for a great basic shoe for fall. Something with a heal but that can be worn with a dress and tights. This pair from Banana Republic caught my eye.
