I can’t get enough of the vintage wallpaper stockists on Etsy . . . I may lose sleep over the possibilities these crazy patterns pose for some of our 2012 affairs! Check it out:

A Modern Gatsby

Right about this time next year, I’ll be counting down the days until we can pull a Ferris and go as a gaggle to see Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby. Mainly because I can’t wait to see Carey Mulligan transformed into Daisy.

A lot of our girls use terms like “Gatsby”, “Sabrina”, “old world with a modern twist”, and “Midsummer Night’s Dream” to explain what they hope for us to bring to fruition—and we can totally rock that vernacular. May the cinematic experience inspire a dapper wedding or two!

Retro Gold Glam

We’re awash in gold details for the holidays and for one of our über stylish Spring brides, whose excellent taste has us all channeling Gatsby and Sabrina with a dash of Chinoiserie. Whilst trolling Etsy and eBay for some surprises for her, I may have picked up these lovelies for myself:

Ah, the perils of design. I loooove that they’re still in their vintage box- hilarious. These certainly trump any kitschy Santa-topped plastique spreaders hiding in flatware drawers across America (sorry, MIL).

And paws off, y’all- cuz these bad boys may be coming to a decadent seated dinner wedding of ours soon if I win my bid?!?

Towle Supreme Gold Bamboo/Cane Flatware . . . circa 1970. This would look smashing with my Herend, but I digress.

Have a ridiculously girly day, replete with daytime sequins and big honking sunglasses!
