Flora Grubb Gardens @ 10:01 AM
After seeing Flora Grubb's vertical flowers & gardens on Design*Sponge, I knew I had to purchase a few. I ended up getting the Thigmotrope Satellite Fleet and I absolutely love them. It puts some life into my room and airplants are perfect for my city dwelling lifestyle.
A shot of my plants on my wall.

denim brights @ 8:23 AM
Even though plain denim shorts are a part of the summer uniform, I love how these denim cutoffs make an outfit pop!

market bags @ 9:50 AM
Fact: About 1 million plastic bags are used every minute.
I forget to bring reusable bags to the grocery store almost every time I go. My reusable bags are dinky little fabric bags, nothing like these awesome Apolis market bags. I think if I had a few of these lying around, I'd most likely be carrying one around everyday. Not only is the design perfect & simple, but they are a part of Apolis' "Bangladesh Project", a project created to help rebuild local economies and creates opportunity for the whole supply chain.

A few images from the Spring 2011 line, by Whitney Pozgay (Kate Spade's niece!). I'm loving that bow dress.

french chair domination @ 12:39 AM
Floral prints are everywhere, but I fell in love with everything about this chair. Sadly realizing I have no space, use, or money for this chair - I decided to use it as inspiration for this lovely spring outfit.
