Set on a vast private estate along the Pacific Coast in Mexico sits Cuixmala. Among the many things that set Cuixmala apart from other boutique hotels are an exotic animal preserve, a turtle sanctuary, a coconut plantation, and an organic farm where most of the food consumed on the property is grown. Who doesn’t wants to rent a luxurious and private casita on the Virgin Coast? And did I mention most rooms come with your own chef and butler?! A girl can dream.
Hansel From Basel
Inspired by pretty florals, geometric patterns and bright colors, Hansel From Basel‘s collection of socks is unbearably cute. Once you go punchy sock, you’ll never go back . . . show off those socks!
Embroidered Dwellings
It’s impossible not to admire the detail that goes into one of Stephanie K Clark‘s phenomenal embroidered pieces. Her series of embroidered RVs, houses, and log cabins, all embroidered onto stretched canvas with thread and fabric wallpaper, is simply delightful. I even love how she uses thin black thread to outline background features – not a detail missed!
Spirit Of The Painted Desert
The brilliant curators behind Bona Drag sure know how to make a girl yearn for a way of life where bohemian mysticism and rock ‘n’ roll sensibility collide. Their latest offerings include jewelry from Pamela Love and Mania Mania, printed dresses from Mara Hoffman, lingerie from Lonely Hearts, and handbags from Lizzie Fortunato. All so beautiful and downright covetable.
