Is it too late to order this for chrissy? Fancy embellishments, I can't resist you.

Such a sweetly designed little nook.

Easy, fun holiday centerpiece. Fake fruit from Dollar store, dipped in glitter.

Annual Holiday Dinner


Nothing makes me happier than spending an evening in Memphis with my favorite crew- one that I've known since my elementary days. We're talking 20+ years. We've seen the good, the bad and the downright ugly over the years... and so our annual reminiscing convention always devolves into a full-out laughathon. Bonus points awarded for any story beginning or ending with Whitlock's backhouse, naturally. See you jerks soon!

Movember





During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces, in the US and around the world. With their Mo’s, these men raise funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men. Last night, a huge benefit party was thrown for all those 'mo growin' gents. Of course, I took my dad who has been rockin' a 'mo well before many of the party goers were even born. What can I say, he's a real trailblazer that lee askew.

Fall has come and gone


Time for bloody marys, wooly sweaters, football games and buffalo wings.

MM Moment

Dangit, she even had a decent passport picture! Mine (which I renewed 2 years ago) was for the longest time the single most embarrassing photo of me in circulation (and i'm even including my lame freshman year CC ID in which I was rocking a "hippie-goth" look). The passport shot was literally "Buzz, your girlfriend, WOOF" bad.

How pinteresting


Big fan of mustard yellow, especially in the fall time. Above, some of my finds on pinterest this week in pursuit of big bird yellow

It's Gorgeous and 70 degrees today

Makes me wanna do The Dude dance

Warning: this will start to make your head hurt if you watch it for too long. Like wildly downing an Icee. Or doing math.

Giving Thanks And Sugar


Snapshot of a couple in the middle of prepping thanksgiving dinner. Unfortunately cooking makes me feel the opposite-- I'm usually standing around looking confused with batter on my face and craziness in my eyes. Oh, and something is most likely burning somewhere nearby.

Detailed Deliciousness


One of the most beautifully embellished backs of all time.

So Long Sweet Corrie


Last thursday we toasted our longtime coworker and good friend, Corrie, on her big move to another fun and exciting job. It's sad to say goodbye to someone so lovely and talented-- she will be seriously missed by the TCO crew and our little tight knit group of creatives.

Anthropologie Ecards


Go check out Anthropologie's Branch Bunch page on their website. Each ornament is cleverly animated and can be sent out as an ecard to friends and family. Really cute branding idea.

Flair for the neckline

The perfect piece to help spruce up any ole outfit. By Kate Spade, who, let's be honest, can do no wrong.

Holiday Winter Carousel


Our design theme this year that will adorn all of our TCO stores. From this, I created an engraved invitation template that consists of vintage type, as well as elements of a carousel cartouche, for our store directors to send out to customers.

Oh How Pinteresting!


Found wonderful color inspiration today on pinterest and created a mood board. Loving the playfulness of pink and orange and how they exude an overall cheeriness.

Palm Beach Spring Event





Above is the save the date (sent out earlier this year) with the chosen color palette ( fuchsia and kelly green). I incorporated that palette into their options for their big event-- giving it a sort of sophisticated lilly pulitzer spin. Hoping to attend next spring... nothing quite like escaping the grim cold of nyc for Palm Beach in the early spring.
