I’m:
SO happy it’s Friday. and a long weekend!!! it’s been a doozy of a week.
being a fan of sneak peeks, I thought I’d give you another peek of our wedding invitations. originally I’d planned on showing you our full invitation today, but I decided to wait until after the wedding. it’s only 42 days away, so you won’t be waiting long. {42 days, yikes!} I hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend, friends!!
Old Faithful Shop – an everyday living store stocking quality goods. that’s my kind of shop. and just another reason to visit Vancouver.
Walter Manning, one of the store owners, also mans the fantastic tumblr blog, Old Chum. it’s one of my favorites. congrats on the store opening!

I’m in love with the Summer collection from Vain & Vapid, particularly the Ursa Major Dress. the photos, the styling, the clothes… and how cool are those names, mostly named after constellations. Julie, you’ve truly outdone yourself this time, such stunning work!

{you might remember way back when Julie & I collaborated together on a shoot. it’s always so fun to see how designers progress.}
it’s ok to post about fall when you’re having fall/winter like weather, right? besides fall clothes are the best in my opinion.
I absolutely adore these looks from Lauren Moffatt’s Fall 10 collection.

a few weeks ago, I headed to Siesta Key, Florida for a wedding between two of my dearest friends. they share my love of succulents and really wanted to incorporate them into their flowers and invitations. the bride’s bouquet, by Bloom Garden Shop, included succulents, apricot roses, green amaranthus, star of bethlehem and my favorite, scabiosa pods. isn’t it stunning?!
for their wedding stationery suite, we went with an illustration of a sempervivum succulent, blind embossed on the invitation and rsvp, then printed in a pale grey on their ceremony programs. the results turned out beautiful, if I do say so myself, and tied in seamlessly with their flowers. the design and letterpress was done by me and the gorgeous calligraphy was done by Mara from Neither Snow.
