I have an affection for silhouettes. Such great modern heirlooms to have!

So when I found Simply Silhouettes of Portland, Oregon and their silhouettes, they were a must share item as these go beyond your wedding.

In addition to cake toppers, Simply Silhouettes also have the most adorable framed silhouette options (even for your pet!) along with pillows, chalkboard signs and plates becoming the most memorable event accents and keepsakes. Great gifts.

If it's raining, if it's pouring...and even if it's not, I LOVE these Missoni umbrellas!

The kaleidoscope of colors is inspiring and hypnotic...and down-right stunning. Italian-made, these parasols are  a worthy accessory rain or shine! 

     

I found these on a recent HauteLook event sale but various patterns can be found at a number of Missoni retailers including Saks, Neiman Marcus and Sierra Trading Post.

Cheers!

I have a penchant for monogrammed pendants and when I discovered these custom morse code necklaces, I was giddy an immediately putting one in my virtual shipping cart!

Handmade in the Portland studios of COATT and available in various colors, lengths and materials (personally I LOVE the silk option), it is truly a labor of love using gold or silver dots and dashes on silk cord, spelling names and phrases in morse code.

 

How clever. How delicate. How pretty. How modern. How irresistible. 

Cheers!

A gem of an Etsy shop featuring the sweetest handmade decorations and pretty things. My heart skipped a beat when I saw this adorable pom bouquet. Cuter than cute and a zillion colors to choose from...(okay, maybe just 15 but it looks crazy colorful in the best way possible!)

I would love to wrap my office in this felted garland...

And this charming custom felt cake topper is the icing on the cake of pretty, handmade things!

Cheers!
