It's Friday afternoon, the sun is shining and we've got roasted tomatillo salsa on our plates. If that's not reason to celebrate, well, I just don't know what is. I do, however, know for certain that Melissa's fabulous recipe is calling your name. Yep, it's spicy, savoury, celebratory goodness in salsa form, folks. And with that, we bid you the...

My favorite holiday of all time is Cinco de Mayo. So much so, that my husband and I host our own fiesta each and every year that includes more salsa and guac than could ever possibly be consumed, a killer playlist and ever flowing margaritas. It's pure heaven and I'm kicking myself for not turning that love of fiestas into our own wedding day celebration. Now fastforward to this inspiration shoot, which technically is no where near Mexico being Spanish inspired, but it still holds that vibrancy...
In a time where there are no longer hard and fast rules for wedding style and where weddings run the gamut in terms of fashion, locale and overall sense of design; the one thing that still holds true is a day completely infused with a couple's personality will always reign Queen. It shows through in the simplest of details like this Bride walking down the aisle in her mother's wedding dress or a more grand concepts like the citrus theme that was a beautiful nod to the Bride's parent's...
Destination weddings are pure genius to me. I mean, what beats a trip with your nearest and dearest to celebrate your love? I honestly can't think of much, expect maybe having Kimberly Chau Photography on hand to capture every sweet moment of the weekend unfold. These two genius cuties had just such a plan, and the result is...

And we are officially back with another Spring fashion essentials round-up, this time curated by the talented Julia from Gal Meets Glam. This San Fransisco native is no stranger to style, and is here today showing us how to do bright and cheery in the prettiest of ways. And if you ask me, this collection of colourful pieces completely embodies spring in all of it's vibrant glory (I, personally, have got my eyes set on that tangerine orange...
A wedding that includes a couple riding on a Ferris wheel is a great one in my book. And a couple that took their unfussy, low-maintenance lifestyle and transformed it into a wedding day both simple and insanely beautiful is also a great celebration in my book. This wedding reflects not only the couple but also the beautiful surroundings of Bear Flag Farm. It's love, Ferris wheels and pretty blooms all captured by ...
Weddings like this are an automatic homerun for me. Outdoor in a super lush, gorgeous green spot. Something I've never seen before, and totally beautiful, as the ceremony backdrop. A reception that looks like something you could wander into a fairy tale and stumble across. And pictures from Janae Shields Photography so beautiful, I literally lost track of time in...
With Cinco de Mayo on the approach (hang on, let's take a moment here - May? how did that happen??), I find myself brainstorming ways in which to celebrate. There's more than a chance that I'm stating the obvious, but I'm pretty sure that a tequilla laden cocktail is the answer. And lucky for us, Caitlin Moran of Style Within Reach and Sarah Culver are here with just the...
