For those of you with kiddos, you’ve probably already discovered one of my favorite sites, The Land of Nod.  But even if you don’t have kids, you should definitely check them out.  Their pieces are amazing… playful enough for kids, but chic enough for us grown-ups.

Here are 5 finds that I’m obsessed with right now.

I mean, seriously, how chic are these pieces? Do you have a favorite?

P.S. All of their furniture is 15% off thru Monday, so if you have your eye on a piece, I suggest you swoop it up quickly!

Ciao for Now,

♥♥ Vicky

Happy Friday, Everyone!

I’m kicking off the weekend with the eternally chic trend of black and white stripes. Okay… so maybe it’s not a trend since it’s one of the most classic color-patern combos around, but the duo is definitely having moment. Oh, and I’m definitely a little obsessed.

To inspire you give the “trend” a try, here are some ultra chic options to get you started.

Did you know that today is officially Denim Day?!?  No really, everyone has an excuse to wear jeans to work today.

Denim Day was started by the non-profit organization, Peace Over Violence, in protest of sexual violence against women.  It’s such an important cause which is why today’s post is all about denim.

Here to prove that denim can be chic, here are some examples of denim done right.

Setting the Easter Table

I’m so excited to spend some quality time with my family tomorrow and enjoy an Easter feast! Not known to be the best cook in the family, I’m always responsible for setting the table.

This year I’m going for a chic, rustic, vintage vibe.  Here’s what I’m thinking…

I love the look of this fringed linen napkin with the aged silverware

This table runner has an abstract print that gives it a modern feel, but the burlap base keeps it looking rustic.

Something about Easter always makes me want to combine pink and blue.  These blue serving utensils will look lovely popped against the pink in the table runner!

Keeping with the vintage/rustic theme… I absolutely LOVE this pink waffle depression glass stemware!

How great is this dinnerware?  It definitely helps to tie in the pink and blue color scheme.

Lastly, so as not to upset my grandmother… a little traditional easter decor
