Yes, You Can Buy Yourself Flowers & Mom, Too

{ Via: Kate Spade }

 Flowers are a lovely gift any time of the year, for any reason. But they do fade and that is always sad. When putting this post together, I was thinking of mothers, spring, and women in general. There is something for gifting yourself or a woman you love. These floral forward finds will not fade. If you are thinking Mother's Day.....better get going.

Baum & Pferdgarten Sweater

Just the sweetest look. A cotton sweater can be worn all year long, and becomes the light layer you need on a chilly flight, at the movies, or in a restaurant. This is a new designer to me. And I love it.

Anthropologie

Leather Double Bracelet 

A late addition to this post. It just now came across my desk. How fun and favulous! The fora motif softens the black leather. It also comes in white. Gucci will overnight it to you for free, if you order by May 7th. $330

The Weekend Wrap Up

{ Via: Anthropologie }

 Have you read the news? The Devil Wears Prada opens today. Will you go see it or wait for it to stream? I think that I have a date scheduled. So in honor of this fun happening, today's color palette is black & white with pops of red. Enjoy the best links of the week, and interesting stories.

Wide legs and polka dots are a delicious duo. These are exclusive to Moda Operandi. They are low on sizes, but I found this pair from Alix of Bohemia, that are quite the same.
