Have a Wonderful Weekend...

What a week!

I've had a ton going on in my non-blogging world, but I'm so excited to share a review of my Brimfield's trip early next week. Trust me, this isn't going to be your standard stardust review of the place, but rather some honest advice and helpful hints.

I'm headed to Chester County, PA. for a wonderful wedding celebration. Can't wait to report back!

Hope you have a wonderful fall weekend!

Dream Weaver.... Amanda Stone Talley Fabrics

One of my fave artists, Amanda Stone Talley, has moved her brilliant paintings from the canvas to a different kind of cloth... and she's now producing fantastic fabrics.


I can think of 100 different things I'd love to do with this fabric off the top of my head! How about you?


You can find Amanda's gorgeous fabrics at and they are available in linen, upholstery twill, cotton sateen & cotton jersey

Prippy Puppy... Uppers

Scrapple and Bella need this... because they can read and know that "Puppy Uppers" are Milk Bones.

Or because I find it hilarious... and a must for my kitchen.

Love Letter... India Hicks Jewelry

Since getting engaged (10 months ago... crazy!), I've had a bit of a thing with my soon-to-be new last name.


While I love the monogram necklace, I think that my new last name initial is plenty to put around my neck. And I couldn't think of a more perfect necklace than India Hicks' Love Letters.


Since I'll be honeymooning on the island where she lives, I plan to stop by her shop, The Sugar Mill, to see if they have a "D" for me.

NYC Readers... Head to Bobo Sunday

BOBO, one of my fave NYC restaurants, is participating in ‘Dine Out Irene’, a fundraising drive this Sunday night to support local farms impacted by hurricane Irene.

I can't think of a better way to spend a Sunday evening. They’re donating proceeds from dinner sales, so please make a reservation and support New York farmers!

P.S. I have a big ole' post next week about my experience hearing about and seeing the devastation in Upstate NY during my trip to Brimfield... hope you check it out and help out if you can!

Exhibition A... René Ricard

I'm obsessed with this René Ricard print. I'm also obsessed with Exhibition A, an online art gallery selling limited edition prints (including Ricard's!).

Art is the best gift, in my book.

Lovely, no? Perfect for newlyweds... especially for pointing at during a squabble.

Prippy's Favorite Season... Fall

Welcome, Fall!

I'm so excited that you're here. You are my fave.

I love your weather, sports, outings, food, fashion, and festivities.


P.S. I struggled a wee bit with using this fab Tommy Hilfiger pic... I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with the designer. Anyone with me on this one?
