Fresh Fall Acorns

Blake K. posted an article on - Sep 2, 2010, 8:03 am
This time of year is kind of transitional and in-betweeny. Around here, you’re waiting for the New England Fall shoe to drop, which is glorious, but short, and when it’s over you’re solidly into winter. But that hasn’t happened yet. Still, I think that there are probably a few Native Americ...

Totes are already some of the biggest sellers at American Bridal. In fact, if you’ve been a bit stuck for ideas on what to get the girls who’ll do you the honor of standing up with you at the wedding, you’ve probably dropped by already and peeked at their personalized goodies. But the Tote Ba...

The Chanel tattoos are setting hearts afire. It wasn’t just them — Rodarte and Jean Paul Gautier also sent their models down the aisle in ephemeral ink for SS2010 — but Chanel’s versions caused the most heart-thumping cases of gotta-have-it. Hand-drawn bits of artistry by famous makeup arti...

Love for Folk Art in Weddings

Blake K. posted an article on - Feb 18, 2010, 1:29 am
I lived in Pennsylvania for a bit, and toward the end of that phase of my life, I began to get a little obsessed with Pennsylvania Dutch folk art. I bought a book off Amazon for quite a lot of money, one probably not printed much more than 200 times, authored by some woman  who apparently spent he...

Winter Palette – Charcoal Gray and Nude Tones

Blake K. posted an article on - Feb 17, 2010, 2:12 pm
This last weekend, I got the chance to go shopping in Toronto’s toney Yorkville neighborhood. I admit it, I’ve been hating on winter a little … which only intensified as I battled to keep the Canadian wind from working through all the cracks in my armor. But a quick pop into Club Monaco remind...

It’s in the air … there’s a distinct feeling that wedding gowns are getting bigger on Etsy. Have you felt it? If so, you were right. Because around the time 2009 rolled over into the new decade, Etsy shoppers found themselves growing remarkably more confident, and demanding more from designer...

Mood Board: Peaches and Parrots

Blake K. posted an article on - Feb 9, 2010, 10:46 am
This board is inspired by one of my three most beloved flowers, the parrot tulip. (The other two are peonies and rununculus … um, just in case my husband is reading.) Parrot tulips are like a cross between prom girls and circus performers. They’ve got crazy, flamboyant colors with rich marbled ...

Etsy's Most Popular Valentine Things for Brides

Blake K. posted an article on - Feb 2, 2010, 3:01 pm
For me, one of the toughest things about Etsy is that it’s overwhelming. You can’t even search fast enough so that your first page of results doesn’t get immediately overflowed by a tsunami of just-listed-items. It’s like watching the proverbial river of life flow by … the kind of river th...
