Oversized Trellis Candle — Navy Blue

Worcester Jar Matches




 via


one sister down. one to go. i know that whatever kate buys her she will love, because our style is similar {and i bought her something i already own, and wear every day}.emily is the preppiest of our sisters and she is particular. 


8 dresser drawer knobs
 jcrew crystal venus flytrap necklace
candles for my room, I want a large one with a few wicks.  
2-3 picture frames to put pictures of my friends in.  Preferably silver, either 4x6 or 5x7.  Also a frame for the map of paris picture
 monogram iphone 4s case
bright colored scarf to wear with my winter coat
 ann taylor shirt, size small
 black polka dot pants, size 2:
 long sleeve black silk popover top, size small

that's great. except for NONE of the items on her list fit into our 'sister present budget confines', so i've spent way too much time pouring over my ipad trying to find her something. 

we try only spend about $20 each on each other. it's not about the money, but the thought behind it. 

suggestions. i welcome them! loving these ideas from the design darling, but none of them fit her detailed list {don't worry she included links too}.

Florsheim Shoes {closed}

Thank you to all that entered and congrats to EMMA for winning!  xo You know when you first meet a handsome boy, in my case it was a bar, and everything about him is near perfect. His chiseled features, dark shiny hair, and stunning light blue eyes. Then you look down, and gasp, he's wearing sneakers. Not your run of the mill, fashion forward footwear, but we are talking Nike, Adidas, etc. running shoes. He's wearing them in a bar, with jeans, and a polo. If you're anything like me, the only times tennis shoes are acceptable are on the elliptical machine or running a half marathon. This boy turned out to be the love of my life, and with little resistance I was able to turn him into my fashionable sidekick. With a little help from  Florsheim  you can take your Valentine from sorry to sexy with a pair of shoes courtesy of this luxury brand. I've put together some inspirational looks for you. Just remember, you may not able to c...
