No Rest for Bridget

Here are some looks from sponsor, No Rest for Bridget, a California boutique with some earthy whimsy and mixed up fashion. The prices are really good too. I'm considering a pair of melon-colored shoes from there right now.

Artist Sarah Dawn Helser: Studio shoot

Wednesday, March 28, 2012

I really love seeing someone's workspace. I like to follow all the details and imagine the progression of a work of art. It just so happens my life has been filled with artists, from my mother, brother, brother-in-law and best friend growing up. My friend, Sarah Dawn Helser, let me into her artistic whirlwind as she prepares for a one man show this Friday at the Renee George Gallery. If you live in Charlotte, you should definitely check out one of my favorite artist's work.

Now the mess is extreme as she had to finish 40 something paintings for another project at the same time as her show. I'm always impressed by her skill, I don't know many people that have the gift of painting she does... 

This is part one. Thanks Sarah (and assistant) for letting me in the process.

Sweet Things

Monday, March 26, 2012


This weekend I went to a little event put on by my friend Jess... and of course I only took photos of the food. Sometimes that happens. But the treats were so cute I had to share. Adorable cupcake bar designed by Jess and provided by Cupcrazed! And Bekah from My Little Loves, made the homemade coconut milk, (which I think I drank half the jar) and of course there's one photo of the stunning Jessie Mathis. (I couldn't resist) I really enjoyed the sweet new friends I met over these sweet treats! (don't be strangers if you're one of them! or even if you're not... :)

The Hunger Games

Thursday, March 22, 2012


I never thought I'd be a such a fan of something in pop culture, but oh I am. I love the Hunger Games. Maybe because it's the first series of books I've read in a really long time, or maybe because in my little spirit is a Mockingjay that just won't quit, or because I've been sporting a braid long before and now I just need a bow & arrow... Whatever it is, I'm in to it... and I just wanted to confess that, right here, in my space on the net I am big Hunger Games fan! AND a couple of my friends played trainers and avox in the first movie! AND it was filmed right here in my city. If you don't know what I'm talking about it's ok, I thought the Hunger Games was a diet book when I heard everyone talking about it! Anyone else out there, still thinking about Gale & Peeta? 

My husband got us tickets!! Can't wait.
