Friday flowers

Cheery yellow mums this week.

{mums & tea}

I think my favorite part about buying flowers is carrying them home on the bus. It feels so chic. Although I also love arranging them when I get home. And looking at them the rest of the week.

So I guess I love everything about my weekly indulgence.

SYTYCD: costume change

Did you see this great costume change on So You Think You Can Dance last night? Take a peek at 0:35...it's genious! These two, Karla and Vitolio, went home tonight despite their wonderful quickstep. But how I loved Karla's split-second change of dress! I wish I had a piece in my wardrobe that could do the same!

poppies for bloomers!

I was still trying to figure out the kind of bouquet I want for the Israel beach wedding. I keep envisioning giant orange flowers but I was having so much trouble finding a good inspiration pic on the internet. Then, low and behold, Melanie Bloomer and I spotted the cover of this month's Brides Magazine and it is the perfect bouquet! How come I didn't think of poppies?! We only have a garden full of them right now!


Turns out these are Icelandic Poppies. The name itself is making me fearful they don't exist in hot and humid Israel. Plus poppy season is just ending so I'm crossing my fingers they will be able to get them for me because now my heart is set!

So, not only has Brides.com been ridiculously kind to us, they even went so far as to post this glorious picture of a wedding in my very own aqua and orange colours that uses Icelandic poppies!!! Oh my...I think I might be wanting to change my table setting...eeek!

Look at the adorable little tin on each place setting with a squashed flower underneath!! Hee hee!

And here is a purdy bouquet on Martha Martha Martha...a little too structured for my beach wedding but stunning nonetheless!
