Maybe it's because I live on the coast, but I have a romantic view of snow and winter. Not living in a climate where we shove snow or salt the roads, snow drifts seem magical and beautiful. Winter weddings seem cozy, warm and gorgeous. Here's some outdoor snow inspiration for you!



The thrifty side of me has a difficult time paying retail prices at these amazing stores.. but if $$ were no object I'd love to have a gift registry at any of these places...

Vintage, bohemian chic is endless at Anthro.... swoon. Dresses, home decor, bedding, jewelry to die for!

Outdoor adventures found here. We loved the REI camping pads we used in the Grand Canyon. I could definitely go crazy over outerwear, camping gear, backpacking gear, outdoor cooking and shoes!!


Cozy, clean lines, with a touch of vintage... all these pieces would look perfect in a charming bungalow. Yes, I love Pottery Barn, and my current favorite color is white. Am I boring or what?! I can't help it, I love simplicity!

In college I had the opportunity to live a few miles from the Dean & Deluca in St. Helena, Ca. I could spend way too much time and money sampling at the cheese bar, enjoying their unique baked goods and fresh made gourmet sandwiches!! Amazing local products and fabulous food pairing. If you are ever near any of their locations, a visit is a must!



From wilderness camping to frilly, favored lip glosses, I kinda have extremes!! My first Sephora visit was in Paris on the Champs-Elysées. It was a mega store, a huge hall of every beauty, fragrance or skin care product imaginable!! My greatest weakness is packaging. Cute, small, well packaged products will get me every time! I'm the queen of everything travel and samples size!

Do I actually have many purchases from these stores?? Ummm no, but I'm a good window shopper:-)

What is your dream registry?
