Pretty pretty florals to start your day; simple or supercharged, who doesn't love to get flowers? I love the anemones accents. It's amazing how much life a fresh arrangement can add to a room. It's an affordable luxury. Treat yourself!

When Plum Pretty Sugar Met BHLDN
I just can't stop with the florals can I? This weather is tripping up all of my Spring dreams. When the lovelies at Plum Pretty Sugar put me on to their collection for bridal mecca BHLDN, I was totally sold. Their exclusive BHLDN collection is like a walk through the garden. The three prints for the line feature hand-painted florals on their über-soft and feminine cotton robes and PJ sets. Totally for the romantic hearts. They make for really lovely bridesmaid gifts and are great bridal gifts too. They even come in sets based on your numbers for easy ordering! I can't think of anything prettier in which to luxuriate and lounge about. (And make for cute pics: evidence here and here.) My personal faves are the Breezy Bloomfall Shortie Set in the "Viviette Encounters a Lark" print, the long Kimono Robe in the "Calliope Beneath the Stars" print and the Breezy Bloomfall Pant Set in "Imogen Whisked Afloat". Even the prints sound romantic! Shop the collection here and here.

Sunday Funday
I'm sure that like me, you probably need a little soul soothing on Sundays. I've put together a little compilation of some of my faves from our Instagram. Although this time of year forces me into some unpleasant sinus situations, it is absolutely beautiful in this part of the country. It's not just the colors, the greenery is so lush and can be as pretty as any flower. Be sure to hop over to Instagram and follow us there (southernarrond) if you've fallen victim too.

| Megan Park dress from Vermillion |
Most of you have probably picked up on the fact that I'm not really in to using pictures of myself on this blog. I find, amazingly I know, that the models tend to do it better. There was even a failed attempt to do one of those cool, here's a picture of my kick-ass outfit Instagram shots, but it resulted in everyone agreeing that that's "not my thing". But I'm making an allowance this time to share what was one of my favorite outfits possibly ever, as well as some details from a beautiful wedding last weekend. I will say that my Megan Park mini-caftan from Vermillion is going down as one of my personal fave fashion moments. I loved the color and comfort factor, and the exquisite beading around the neck line. To accessorize I carried this insannnnnnnnnnnneeeee glitter-bombed Anya Hindmarch clutch, also from Vermillion* and went with some simple Sheila Fajl hoops from Charlotte's. Since the reception was in an absolutely stunning backyard, I went with an older, simple nude heel to avoid wear and tear.
*Shout out to a one of my favorite people, holler!

For the Friday night party I went with a bit more structure: I paired this beautiful Shoshanna dress (Monkee's Raleigh) with my Rag & Bone (Vermillion) tuxedo blazer and a pair of Rachel Zoe platform pumps (Monkee's Raleigh). Yes, I did fall down, no I refuse to blame myself, the shoes, or 3 cocktails. To all of the witnesses, thank you for not clapping when I got up. I have taken it on as a personal challenge to master walking in those shoes. Anyhoo, I tossed in some (admittedly not masterful) shots from the wedding which was absolutely beautiful and sweet.

I think I am an excellent party organizer. I am probably not an excellent party planner. There is a difference, I am more of an "ideas" person and promoter, whereas I would likely require some assistance with the details of an event. (Exhibit A: New Years 2010.) I have recently learned some fabulous friends of mine have formed an event design and floral design group. I am extremely excited to know that I have such capable and creative talent at my disposal for future events, and can't wait to enlist their help.
LML Events is doing everything from floral arrangements (with delivery for the Raleigh area) to all kinds of event planning. Baby showers, engagement parties, corporate events, weddings-you name it and they can do it! The girls have a fabulous sense of style, and creative and unique party ideas; they can really make your event personal and distinct.
They have also come up with what I think is the sweetest gift for a new baby; the LML girls have teamed up with another favorite, Charlotte's here in Raleigh, to deliver custom floral arrangements featuring an engraveable sterling baby gift (you have your choice of a silver rattle, teething ring, pacifier clip, or silverplate cross).
It's such a sweet and different idea, and it's something for mama AND baby!!! I'm so excited to see more of what Lindsay, Marian, and Lauren come up with!!!
