I am known to always be wearing arm candy in all shapes and colors but I instantly fell in love with Dillon Rogers' Kid's Signature Leather Bracelets and immediately added it to my collection. A definite must-have.
What a great piece that is totally unique and customizable with over 18 colors of leather and featuring the signatures of your kids (or anyone else for that matter?!) Plus they felt like rock stars giving me their autograph! The process is super simple and makes the perfect gift!
See more on these bracelets and others from Dillon Rogers here.
Cheers!
I saw my friend's MN Market Bag from the Fidelis Co. and was literally giddy. Tote-obsessed, I couldn't stop wondering why had I not seen this before?!? And then to find out that they are a local company with a super strong purpose on providing quality tools we carry and things we use...I had to share!
This market bag had me at the rivets, the leather and the jute. It is stunning AND practical - and I can never resist a shout out to the Land of 10,000 Lakes.
All of the Fidelis Co. products are BEAUTIFUL and made right. From the Field Notebook to the hand painted Canoe Paddle (truly a piece of art) to the Riggers Belt, they all ooze craftsmanship anyone would be proud to own.
Cheers!
One could call me a Bag Lady and I would take no offense...I {heart} bags!
And these Mercado Global bags in Red Envelope's Inspiration Market are no exception. Stunning.
I love that they showcase the skill, design and craftsmanship of indigenous artisans of Guatemala as well provide the opportunity for these women to craft these beautiful bags and support their families while sharing their art with the world.
Be sure and check out the other products featured in the Red Envelope Inspiration Market including the Eco-pillows by Alexandra Ferguson that were spotlighted here on GetMarried earlier this year! I told you they were cool...
Cheers!

Yipee! The most lovely stationery company, Rifle Paper just released ten signature iPhone cases. Genius and gorgeous. Now I can carry one of their designs with me everywhere!
Of course, they are selling like hotcakes...and I've got my eye on the green one with leopards...hmmm..but the map of Manhattan is pretty amazing too?! Decisions...decisions...
Cheers!
Kissing horses, foxes and bears...oh my!
I am in LOVE. So happy ot have discovered UK-based ANORAK and their online shop. All of their goods are undeniably irresistible for the whimisical animal loer in me!
The steamer trunks are beyond words...can you say the MOST ADORABLE coffee table!?! The woodland creatures makes this melamine picnic ware so fun and fresh...I say let's go on a picnic. NOW! And to wrap myself in a blanket of kissing horses...heaven. (Now I just need them to come state-side...pleeez! pretty please with a cute bunny on top!))
Cheers!

As many pictures as I take, I tend to have a hard time sitting down and putting them in a book?! Always my rainy day project that gets pushed to the next rainy day...
I stumbled upon the idea of making an Instagram book from Blurb - and I am so happy I did as well as had the gumption to go ahead and do it (no rainy day needed!)
Instagram seems to capture truly candid randomness that makes up my life - especially when you see it in print! Love it. No more excuses as it was SO EASY to do. The IDEAL way to bundle and share your most real and memorable people, places and events.
I know I will be making more...and to see all my candid randomness, follow me on Instagram.
Cheers!

I'm a huge fan of the bow tie. I'm even known to don one myself every now and then. So while at Indie Wed in Chicago earlier this month, I was a bit giddy when I stumbled upon DiBi Ties.
The fabric choices are divine...awesome textures of corduroy, seersucker, herringbone and plaids that made me weak in the knees. I love a good tie...
and the cuff link collection is way cool. That emerald set is PERFECT.
But this lifestyle company is much cooler than the ties and accessories alone.
I loved meeting the founder and designer (and cutie!) Daniel Bruce. So cool in the most unassuming way.

Not only was he passionate about his designs but also eager to share how he pays it forward with the DiBi Foundation. Portions of the proceeds from DiBi Ties goes to the DiBi Foundation where teaching kits are purchased and provided to rural communities around the world. Who doesn't love that?!?
P.s. I even saw Channing Tatum sporting a DiBi Tie on the GQ Men of the Year cover. Told you it was good stuff all around.
Cheers!

I have a sweet spot for woodland creatures and I have discovered the sweetest pendants featuring a hand-painted cast of woodland characters.
I am a bird does original paintings which are then suspended in high gloss resin in a wood slice retrieved from wine barrels. Such charming portraits. Others feature original artwork hand-painted on recycled wood from the wonderful Canadian landscape (and maybe even from her Grandfather's orchard!)
I agree...it must be nice to be a bird.
Cheers!

I have an affection for silhouettes. Such great modern heirlooms to have!
So when I found Simply Silhouettes of Portland, Oregon and their silhouettes, they were a must share item as these go beyond your wedding.
In addition to cake toppers, Simply Silhouettes also have the most adorable framed silhouette options (even for your pet!) along with pillows, chalkboard signs and plates becoming the most memorable event accents and keepsakes. Great gifts.
Cheers!

If it's raining, if it's pouring...and even if it's not, I LOVE these Missoni umbrellas!
The kaleidoscope of colors is inspiring and hypnotic...and down-right stunning. Italian-made, these parasols are a worthy accessory rain or shine!
I found these on a recent HauteLook event sale but various patterns can be found at a number of Missoni retailers including Saks, Neiman Marcus and Sierra Trading Post.
Cheers!

Be Mine. URG8. Hugs & Kisses. U Rock. Tweet Me. Luv Ya.
There's nothing better than a box of conversation hearts from a secret admirer (preferably the chalky kind) - or a sweet token of love wrapped with a bow from your special someone. Ahhhh, swoon.
If you want to break away from the traditional candy or flowers, here are some great gift ideas that would make anyone weak in the knees...
centerpiece | the succulent shoppe
druzy quartz heart ring | peppina jewelry
cutting board | gray works design
and my personal favorite given to me one year from my BFF...
365 gathered truths | sundance catalog
Happy
Day! XOXO
Cheers!
I have a penchant for monogrammed pendants and when I discovered these custom morse code necklaces, I was giddy an immediately putting one in my virtual shipping cart!
Handmade in the Portland studios of COATT and available in various colors, lengths and materials (personally I LOVE the silk option), it is truly a labor of love using gold or silver dots and dashes on silk cord, spelling names and phrases in morse code.
How clever. How delicate. How pretty. How modern. How irresistible. ![]()
Cheers!

A gem of an Etsy shop featuring the sweetest handmade decorations and pretty things. My heart skipped a beat when I saw this adorable pom bouquet. Cuter than cute and a zillion colors to choose from...(okay, maybe just 15 but it looks crazy colorful in the best way possible!)
I would love to wrap my office in this felted garland...
And this charming custom felt cake topper is the icing on the cake of pretty, handmade things!
Cheers!

Meet The Cozy Project.
Who can resist a name like that?!? I love to be cozy and I love a project. And I LOVE this adorable Etsy shop filled to the brim with handmade cozies from Portland.
I have a mild obsession and am known to collect cozies from places I have been, bands I have seen, weddings I have celebrated and the "just too darn cute to pass up" ones I find. The Cozy Project definitely falls under the "just too darn cute to pass up"category.
I can never have too many cozies to keep my coffee warm or my pint glass from sweating...so send some unique and chic ones to GetMarried and I will feature them!
Cheers!
