Ready for anything

Last night I spent 3 hours in school meetings finding out all of the many commitments I will have during the next 9 months. And my child is sick this morning. And it is raining. I could easily be "under the weather", but as my high school chorus director used to say, "Why are you under the weather? Get above it!" That used to really get on my nerves, but today I'm going to take his advice and rise above it all with cheerful expectations. Here is my ready for anything outfit -

Feeling very "Kelly Wearstler"

I have been sick for the last few days, so I have had a lot of time to think about a lot of things. One of those things is my kitchen. I am meeting with a potential designer of my kitchen soon, so I have been trying to organize my thoughts regarding what I want. I would like to give her a photo of a kitchen and say, "I like this style." But I can't find it. So, I am compiling photos of various items that just have the feeling that I like.

I love Kelly Wearstler's sense of style in both fashion and home design. It is beautiful, bold and quirky but also approachable. Here I have put together a collage representing a possible design style for my kitchen... using fashion (including a few pieces from Ms. Wearstler's own line) -
