Why Pick One?

1/2

Confession: I have a minor obsession with chairs. I desperately want an Eames (or a whole room full of them). The problem I am running into is which color do I want - yellow, red, turquoise, white?!?!?

So when I saw the above watercolor on the Lonny Blog painted by AMAZING illustrator Caitlin McGauley I though why have I never considered pink. (Yes I know in her piece the chair is white, but the background is pink and well my thought process confuses even me sometimes) Z is not buying a pink chair for the office bit so I will continue to obsess about the perfect color and share my dreams of a pink chair here with you all.

Stop, Collaborate & Listen.

Airstream for 3, Please.

I am already thinking about summer vacations and long weekends away when this campaign for Airstream sent me into full on wishful thinking mode.

 Lenlee Represents asked four of her photographers to shoot a campaign for Airstream using their own unique style. While each campaign is beautifully done the work of Wendi Nordeck made me long to hit the open road and embrace a gypsy lifestyle, if only for a short time. Delicious food, cold drinks and cool breezes all sound like perfection to me.

The companion printed pieces, which I believe are letter pressed, were created by Ian Nordeck. Pretty awesome, right?

Now if I could only convince Z that we need/ have to have one of these beauties so all our summer wishes will come true.

If you would like to join me on my Airstream day dream check out the entire series here.

Singing La La La La La.

Hope you all had a wonderful week and have a relaxing fun filled weekend planned. We are heading to see Wicked with Punky tomorrow. I am super excited as I have heard great things about it and well it will allow me to check another item off my March list.

Today's music is from Rabbit! Their music is sugary sweet and the entire album makes me happy. Anytime you can get "You look stinkin' foxy" in some lyrics count me in. Enjoy!!

Women We Love: Elizabeth Taylor

I created this image to share with you earlier in the week. I typically try and plan out my posts, I'm a planner which I am sure many of you could guess. I was not sure if I should post as planned or not, but in the end I think it is a beautiful image of an amazing woman. I believe the image was taken during the shooting of Cleopatra.

The full quote is: "I'm a survivor. A living example of what people can go through and survive."

Artist Love: Ludovica Gioscia

Image: Work of Ludovica Gioscia photographed by Ståle Eriksen

I wanted to share the amazing work of artist Ludovica Gioscia with you all fabulous people. I came across her work while perusing the Anthology blog after picking up their latest issue. If you haven't had a chance to flip through this publication I highly encourage you stop by your local Anthropologie and check it out. (I think this is the only place that carries it)

Ludovica is an installation artist and her work seen above was part of her "Rococo Hardcore" installation from 2007. This was created using wallpaper, some ready made and some hand screen printed, and then peeling them away layer by layer. AMAZING. The combination of color and pattern is both visually interesting and beautiful.
