Galison Cards

I was recently looking for some notecards to send out to clients. I went into our local pharmacy/gift shop (small town!) just as they were closing, and came across these lovely note cards by Galison.

I picked up a box of the Midnight Bloom cards...


and a box of the Dandelion cards.


These boxes come with 12 tri-fold cards and beautifully color coordinated envelopes, which are very cute on their own!

While looking at their website, I found a few more boxes I plan to get the next time I need cards.
Love these Origami Lane cards...


...and the Lucie Summers cards.
They are at a fabulous price point, and are great quality. I urge you to try them out next time you need some cards!

Salma Hayek + A Fall Look


I picked up the June 2010 issue of InStyle with Salma Hayek Pinault on the cover (partly for my husband, who worships the ground she walks on ;)) and just love this image. I love the way the sunlight is shining through the trees, the beautiful color of her gown, and the way it is complimented by the dark greenery behind her.

In honor of today being the first day of September, I thought I'd try to pull together some of the colors in an outfit that I might wear (because as much as I love it, I'm probably not going to be wearing her gorgeous gown anytime soon!), and to carry the color scheme into Fall.

Kind of hard to tell in this photo, but this cardigan is actually a deep purple (and only $49.90!), and think it would look great with either a white or grey cami.





I kind of like this necklace and think it might be fun with the above...


Or if you wanted a lighter look, this necklace from Anthropologie would look great too.






Pair it with some skinny jeans and flats and you've got a great fall look!
