{trends} popcorn bar


loving the popcorn bar from {utterly engaged} . who knew popcorn could be so glamorous and sophisticated. have plain air popped popcorn and allow your guests to flavor it with sweet toppings like chocolate or caramel or go savory with garlic salt or parmesan cheese.

october is national breast cancer awareness month.

{#6} gold + pink inspiration board

i know today's inspiration board isn’t the traditional autumny palette but this combination of rosy pink and luxurious gold add a touch of warmth and casual-sophistication. Why not have your bridesmaids wear a pencil skirt and cashmere sweater and add a little whimsical mini golden cadillac for a boutonniere.

colors: pale pink, gold and vanilla white
