nursery sneak peek

I know, I know…such a tease, sorry! Once the nursery is complete I will have some professional shots to share, but for now mine will have to suffice. This photo actually tells you more than you might think, as it is mostly the entire "color" story for the room. The greys, whites and neutrals are so yummy to me I could lick them. Seriously. This adorable bear was one of our few baby purchases while in Paris…we were not expecting at the time but knew we would be before our next trip back. I can't wait to share more!

We had a luxurious and lovely stay at the St. Regis Hotel in Manhattan. A timeless classic, the French Beaux-Arts style hotel opened it’s doors in 1904. This was our second time staying there, for free thanks to hotel points -a major perk of my husbands past work travels! Upon arrival we learned we had also been upgraded to a suite, ooh la la…which you may recall has happened to us before. Not a bad start to our mini babymoon, eh?! It is a great base for getting around town as it is centrally located, and the service is impeccable. I particularly love the French interior design (bien sur) and elegant old world touches…you feel transformed to that golden era. We felt like royalty!

My room shots didn’t turn out great, so I took this one from the hotel site!

The internet is buzzing with excitement about the newly launched Wayfare Magazine…have you seen it?! I learned of it via my friend Anne Ditmeyer, who is the Art Director/Editor, and I am so impressed with the result! I am addicted to reading about travel via blogs, print mags, or books, and this is the perfect amalgamation of all of those mediums, in my opinion. I've been enjoying it on my iPad, which it is designed perfectly for. I'm already looking forward to their next issue, due out spring/summer!
