happy holidays, friends...

from the world's lamest blogger. So busy, as you all are, and love that some of you are organized enough to post and delight me daily. I clearly am not up to those skills.

New Year's resolution, perhaps?

a splash.

A punch of mustard in a beige world. I am into it. You?

loving...

Fingerless gloves for the season. Although once it gets too nippy, they serve no purpose. Love for medium chill and cool value.

You?

The new 45....I am told.

Ummm. Ok. Amazing.

Annoying....but amazing.

busy.

It is me hiding behind mounds of orders, paperwork and all of the other effects of the day. Hope you are all well. I check your blogs always. Hope to have some time soon to chat.

loving this green for Fall.

New at Dewdrop.

Come on over...http://www.dewdropdesigns.com

have a great weekend.

delish.

Sorry for being so delinquent over here. Crazy, crazy with work-all good- but having very little time for delights like blogging. Hope all is well. Wish I had a pound of these!

happy long weekend.

now this works.

I understand the merits of styling, but am often baffled by real people in real homes who use a space, let's say in a hallway, facing a WALL, to put a sofa. I mean, is anyone really going to lounge there? I know there is available space, but it seems so.... insincere. Here is open space that is very sincere, and I am totally into it. Great use, great everything.

seriously makes me woozy.

Thoughts and prayer go out to everyone up and down the east coast. We in NC are grateful Irene has said goodnight.

heading anywhere fun this weekend?

Where can I get this car? looks about perfect to me.

.love...still

I have loved these images for some time. A big fan of botanicals, especially oversized.

looks like me...

Very similar to my board next to my desk. It makes sense to me...

How do you organize your thoughts?

Great palette for Fall.

I am seeing a lot of these in my work this Fall. Great eye-Peggy Wong.

makes me happy...

loving...

Gorgeous food photography. You, too. Look here.

have a sparkly weekend.

How deliberate...and fun. Hope your weekend is as well. xoxo

let your hair down...

but unless you are North of the Mason-Dixon line, stay the hell inside. Sweltering, oppressive, blistering....all come to mind. But, hey, it's still Friday!

xoxo

love every ounce...

Just do. As usual, Nelya.

lovely...

delicious Fall colors.

come on over.

Sometimes at Dewdrop we have a cool sample in the office-a client requested something special and we designed some products for review before they chose the perfect one. Other times we have only one left of a best selling design from a past collection. Some days we drool over an amazing piece of leather only large enough to sew two perfect bags. All great finds, but too limited in availability to tantalize the masses. What to do?

Our idea. A one-of-a-kind sale, monthly, for subscribers only. Get a great deal on a great item. First come, first sold. Sign up here and we will email you when we start(late July)Sound good?

We thought so.

Fall colors

Pantone says. What do you say?

.are you kidding me?

Made from a typewriter. No joke. Via here

current obsession

Seem to find myself drawn to this shade in my designs, clothes and home. Do you get that way? If so, what is your current obsession? Do tell...

divine

Not a huge runway observer, but these two for McQueen 2012 are spectacular.

this could work.

Let's pretend there is a back of floor to ceiling glass, then let's place it on the water. Need a fridge, a loo, direct tv for bravo, beer, my sweetie and a no teenagers allowed sign. A week sounds just divine.

love this.

loving

Using lots of gold, silver and white in our Summer collection of books. Delish.

$5.80

Not kidding. In numerous designs. Hard to resist. Forever 21.

love this

headed out...

for a bit of r&r. Nutty month, but great.

Hugs and kisses. Back soon.

love these colors together

love these colors together

always a winner.

I am a sucker for pink in all shades, but especially love the ethereal feel of these colors in the sweltering heat.

diggin this room.

Would like to put my face on the cold floor. Took just one day of 90 degree weather to remind me of what 90 degree weather feels like.

SO cool....

Screams Summer to me.

Dewdrop at Henri Bendel

Big Apple or bust?

Excited to be invited to do a series of trunk shows for an all time favorite-Henri Bendel New York. I will be there this week Thursday-Saturday and would love to meet any of you that are nearby and available. I will be showcasing my new line of travel bags and accessories and am really happy to debut it there.

Hope to see you!

Could not resist. My 16 year old son at his first prom. If he gets wind of this, I will no longer be allowed access to his life, so look quickly.
