Perfect Pink!!


a pink crayon....at my front door!

Do you ever hear a song, that you haven't heard in a while, and then you can't get it out of your head? In fact, you keep humming it, keep replaying it, and turn it wayyy up while you dance around your apartment and sing your heart out?! Yes, yes, thats me! Its one of those lovely little things that we do when no one else is looking! 

So this weekend I've certainly had one of those moments - and yes, occasionally on repeat! Oscar is hilarious when I, how shall I put it..."rock out"!! Haha!! He goes nuts too, jumping all around the apartment, playing with all of his toys at once! He is particularly fond of Guns n Roses!! However, this time it's Aerosmith, and their song "Pink", which I have found I completely adore! The video is a little odd, but I love the lyrics, and I've posted the youtube link below for your listening pleasure!

The funny thing is, on Saturday, when I was walking into my apartment building, what should I find right in front of the door? Strangely enough...a bright pink crayon!!! I couldn't believe it! (you have to listen to the song lyrics!) Of course, I had to pick it up, and I took a photo of it (above) on my most beloved oyster shell side table.

I always find it so funny when things like that happen...

So here I have not only posted Aerosmith, but also a ton of images, photography and interiors, all of which are gloriously pink! I enjoyed picking them out (while listening to the song of course!) so I hope you enjoy them too!
Pink isn't just for Barbie, or what some people call 'girly girls' but truly, it is a gorgeously feminine color, and can be so classy, stunning and so perfectly beautiful. I love it!!

De-Spec!! 2008 AIA Interior Architecture Design Award!!



Just recently, the Architecture firm I work for, De-Spec, won an award -with honors! from the very coveted 2008 AIA New York Chapter Design Awards!! It was in the Interior Architecture Category for it's design of Banchet Flowers!!

Banchet Flowers is located in the Meatpacking district of New York City, with it's bare brick walls, warm woods and the bright and airy feel of the store, De-Spec captured exactly what Banchet Jaigla wanted!
"Inspired by her childhood in Thailand and the cultural energy of New York City, Banchet has created a visual vocabulary unprecedented in the floral industry"

Banchet's floral heaven isn't just your normal flower store but has hosted weddings, music events, fashion shows, private parties and photo shoots! For more info see her website - here!!

I was very happy to attend the exhibition's opening night, and throughly enjoyed seeing all of the amazing work the AIA praised so highly! Above is our De-Spec poster of Banchet Flowers - and below are some just stunning images of the interior! I just love these pictures - and you should know by now I'm a sucker for flowers!

A Rose By Any Other Name....



Last night, I received some beautiful roses... and I love them. Sometimes, nothing else says it like flowers.... and these said it all. 

And they smell heavenly..... my Oscar thinks so too!
