Treats or Treats?

Happy Friday!  With Halloween just around the corner, and the holidays following not long after that, I suddenly have a hankering to spend some time in the kitchen.  I love spending the fall in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes and baking ideas! And there are so many cute options out there for Halloween.  I've rounded up my top 5 to try!

1. Halloween bark from the Pioneer Woman.

2. These delightfully wicked brownie coffins from Martha Stewart.  Too cute!

3. How hilarious are these chomping monster cookie sandwiches from Pillsbury? 

4. I love this adorable ghostly pizza idea from all you magazine!

5. And of course, we've all seen the popcorn hands all over pinterest, but they really are too cute not to mention!

Happy kitchening!

What's next?

With just weeks to go until until Over the Moon launches at Market Noel in Birmingham, we are in full swing of production, marketing and styling.  One of our top priorities?  Matching dresses and headware, of course!

I know that may sound silly, but we are really striving to add some joy to people's lives, and we think what better way than looking really amazing while we are selling them products?!

As I'm starting to research what type of headware I should make for our glamorous garb, I am trying to find the most cutting edge ideas out there. First it was fascinators, then it was flower crowns.  What do you think is next in headware?

I love these images from a bridal shoot, mostly because of the amazing, vintage-style headware.  Hmmm.....I might be getting an idea already!

Monogram Monday 10.7.13

Love...want...need one of these awesome planner from Whitney English.  Floral AND a gold monogram? Yes, please.

In addition to designing these bad boys, Whitney English is a creative entrepreneur and brand consultant. So, in addition to being stylish, the inside of these bad boys contains worksheets and inspirational quotes as well as the calendars themselves.  While her shop doesn't feature any images of the inside, the description is enough to have me wanting one....

Do you know Jaime Derringer?

Do you know Jaime Derringer?  I ran across this fabulous work on Anthology magazine and loved it!  Such fun colors and beautiful abstract shapes and line work.  I would mind having one of these sweet little guys up in my kitchen.
 

 You can find Jaime's work for sale on etsy.

Fall Fashion

Finally, it's fall!  I must admit, I am much more of a sweater, jeans and boots kinda gal than a bikini and that's it kinda gal...so I get super excited when the weather turns a little cooler.  Not to mention that Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, my birthday is in October, and I love pumpkin lattes.

I am super excited about changing my wardrobe up from bright turquoise and pink to rich plum, mustard and emerald.  I can almost smell the cloved oranges and apple-pear pies.............

Kate Spade goes Whimsical

I was so excited to hear that we will soon be getting a Kate Spade here in Birmingham!  I have always loved her colorful, lady-like looks.  I even have a pineapple necklace of hers on which I've worn down the pineapple's leaves, and the gold plate has totally worn off.

Upon hearing the news, I promptly went to her website to daydream about what beautiful baubles and darling dresses the store might display and instead found some amazingly whimsical bags!

I love the playfulness of these movie-themed ones!

 But my favorite has to be the taxi bag with the apple print.  Too fun!  Check out more of these great bags on the Kate Spade website!

Marchesa Magnifique

Have you been following fashion week? There have been some real showstoppers! Rachel Zoe, Tory Burch, and Tracy Reese to name a few.  But my favorite show has to be Marchesa!

Check out these beauties:

I love the soft, feminine lines, the neutral, celestial palette and the ethereal fabrics.  Just gorgeous! Somewhere between Romeo & Juliet and the Great Gatsby.  Gorge.
