a pretty halloween

My ideal Halloween looks a little like this party by Carolyn Roehm or perhaps the Halloween scenes from Meet Me in St. Louis. These clever costumes from Martha hit the spot.

willow ships

  

I have a new blog crush. Willow Ships is written by another Chelsea but this Chelsea takes dreamy photos and sings in a lovely, lovely  band called Teacups. The band doesn't just have a pretty name, the music is good. Listen to 'Mon Petit Poisson Avec Beats.'

Via All The Mountains via Makool Loves You.

project wedding: vintage books

My latest article for Project Wedding is about gifts for bridesmaids. I love the idea of passing on old books that have a special meaning for each girl. This idea could be used for any gift, not just for weddings! See full article here.
