// WEEKEND VIBES

// MONTAUK 

The ladies and I have started to plan our girls weekend getaway back to Montauk. I can't wait for New York summer to get here. By far the most enjoyable time of the year. Jersey weekends, Boat days, New York summer nights, killer roof tops [yes, I just said the word killer], t shirts, shorts, sandals, salt water. I'll stop there. It's still cold outside. 

// ELISA AND I

// The Style Line

I love getting up at 8:30 am on a Sunday. Kidding. I didn't love the wakeup call, I did love the people I was hanging out with though. With my week days full of work at Holland & Sherry, I've been forcing everyone to meet me at ridiculous hours. Preserve.us had us meet at Maman at 6:00 am. Sorry guys. Above is a photo from last Sunday. Elisa and I met with The Style Line to talk about our friendship, our design inspiration etc. This is what our design meetings generally look like... Just not as pretty. We showered for this interview. I'm excited to see the feature come together!

P.s New horoscopes are up. Read yours here  x-C

// Studio work

Custom border design coming along nicely. My client wanted all black and white flowers on a white background. These flowers are going to up the border of her linen drapes! So excited to see it all come together.

Creative/all-your-new-ideas-suck block. It's the worst. New collection,  Number 11, launching May 5th and all I want to do it crawl up in my bed and never leave. Except for coffee refills of course. Things are starting to piece together, slowly. I know exactly how I want everything to look like, it's the time and patience needed to translate what's going on up in my head onto paper that's the frustrating part. grrrr. Even I'm excited to see how everything is going to turn out at this point! I hope you're enjoying the Monday. Sleepy side I am today. Maybe it was the time difference. Meh, 6 pm and still sunshine - sleepy doesn't sound too bad. 

// WEEKEND VIBES

// Location: Little Branch

Date night with the man last night. We started at a new restaurant in the West Village called Cafe Clover. Sort of had the same vibe as Cafe Colette in Toronto. We ended our night at Little Branch, one of my favourite speakeasys. No Jazz on Fridays though [totally lame] so we had one delicious cocktail and called it a night. Happy weekend.  x-C

// Candice Kaye design studio

Picture this blown up as wallpaper for your accent wall, paired with decor that consists of a mix of metals, dark blue or hints of fuchsia pink as your accent color, a rustic tufted brown leather Restoration Hardware-esque couch, hold rustic treasure chess as your coffee table, with a sheet of glass layered on top of it. Ok stopping. But really just imagine. Looks pretty sick doesn't it.
