a Sailing ship kite & seasonal sweets

Last list o’ links before Christmas! Here’s some end of week fun to get the holidays started right, and we’ll see you next week!

Tomorrow is the last day to view the legendary Yayoi Kusama’s art show in NYC.

We love these pops of pink. What a beautiful break from winter grey, right?

Great sophisticated party dresses for New Years Eve. 

On our reading list, Jacques Costeau’s The Silent World.

We love this date idea: learning to play pool!

This sailing ship kite is so magical!

And if you have some time (and calories) to spare, here’s seasonal sweets galore.

We Love: The Short Wedding Dress

Happy Friday and Hello Spring!

Speaking of, wouldn’t Here Comes the Sun make a great recessional song for a wedding? We’d love to see that.

The lace, the venue, the shoes, the ring!! This El Capitan Wedding from 100 Layer Cake looked so incredible.

And so does Jonathan Adler’s exuberant list of Etsy picks.

And this great list of gorgeous wedding books, by Luella & June.

Stunning photography of lightning.

Marrying Prince William, haha.

Designers favorite workout accoutrements. 

Bake it in a cake! Does someone you love, love chocolate and peanut butter? 

A friend of ours is looking for a short wedding dress. We found these, on Brooklyn Bride. And these at Nordstrom. Any more ideas? Leave it in the comments.

Have a wonderful weekend, friends!

Happy 2013!

What will New Year’s Eve look like for you? We’re keeping it a little more intimate this year, but it wouldn’t be New Year’s without a little sparkle.

Looking back on 2012…

Go on, we dare you. Check out the Polar Bear Club’s Coney Island dip, by Brooklyn photographer/designer Jenna Park.

We’re loving the New York Times’ slideshow of 2012’s best book covers, selected by book cover designers.

And speaking of slideshows, Food & Wine’s Champagne cocktails look so pretty, we can’t settle on just one!

Looking forward to 2013…

Planning a wedding? Check out this New Year’s Eve wedding inspiration.

A bold New Year’s resolution for brides to be.

And finally, from one of our Facebook friends, a vintage reminder that beautiful songs and beautiful ideas endure.

Auld Lang Syne, my friends. See you next year!
