MADEWELL OPENING AT THE PRU IN BOSTON!

March 21, 2017

One of my favorite parts about Spring is being able to leave the house without the added 10-15 minutes of putting on extra layers and boots. Another favorite is opening my Spring/Summer clothes bins and feeling like I have a whole new wardrobe. Even though I love my cozy sweaters, I am more than ready for a little warm weather. How about you?!

I’m excited about today’s post because I would like to extend an invite to all of you lovely readers to the new Madewell opening in Boston! As you may know, there’s one located on Newbury St. but now you don’t have to go far if you are shopping at the Shops at Prudential. Let’s be real, I would prefer a Madewell at every mile of Boston, like the amount of Sonics in Oklahoma or Dunkin Donuts here in Massachusetts. HA! To share my excitement about the opening, I put together two looks and can’t wait to rock the black jumpsuit you see below at the opening party! Alright so mark your calenders:

THE EVERYDAY CO. x JILL ROSENWALD MAKERS TOWEL

November 4, 2016

The Everyday Co. and Jill Rosenwald Makers Towel I couldn’t be more excited to share a product that my dear friend and previous studio mate, Kathryn of The Everyday Co., and Jill Rosenwald who we had the pleasure of renting our studio from, teamed up to create. The Makers Towel, a limited edition sturdy towel for your home, workplace or studio. Each towel is 1 out of a limited cut of 80 with a special note from K+J and a recipe from Jill and her daughter. Both of these women inspire me on the daily…they are go-getters, passionate about being makers and artists, their attention to detail is like none other…and they both know how to make everyone smile! It’s the PERFECT collaboration. The Everyday Co. and Jill Rosenwald Makers Towel “The print is her Hampton links pattern that covers many Vintage Jill ceramics and her current bedding collection. It was a no-brainer (our cloth goods use remnant fabrics) and an opportunity for us to revive her Libeco fabric back to all its glory. 100% linen and hand-printed in Massachusetts, this luxurious fabric was perfect for something substantial. And special.” – Kathryn of The Everyday Co. The Everyday Co. and Jill Rosenwald Makers Towel I love that these photos were taken in our old studio – bringing back great memories of sharing a creative space with Kathryn of The Everyday Co. + Nicole of Nicole Baas Photography. Photography by: Lara Woolfson of Studio Nouveau.Guys, I am having the hardest time deciding which color to choose? I keep going back and forth because I love them both.

Also, this is the perfect time to remind you that Oh, I Design promotes businesses/products that we truly support. We are purchasing a makers towel in support both of these incredible women.

LUNYA’S OPEN & AIRY OFFICE SPACE

July 6, 2016

I personally love white spaces that are clean and thoughtfully designed. Lunya’s office is not only that, but the design also leaves room for creativity and lets their products speak for themselves. Lunya, founded by Ashley Merrill, is a fresh and modern take on sleepwear. I don’t know about you, but I am a big t-shirt kind of gal when it comes to sleepwear…nothing attractive about what I wear to sleep. That being said, when I perused Lunya’s site, I instantly fell in love with their take on the big t-shirt and made it more modern and attractive. I mean we do spend a third of our lives sleeping…maybe we should wear something that not only is comfortable and stylish but also makes you feel confident? A few of my favorite Lunya pieces: 1 / 2 / 3

Now on to their gorgeous office… Lunya's Office Space via Oh, I Design Blog The custom copper clothes racks created by Ashley Merrill’s dad are GORGEOUS! Dear Ashley’s dad, I will take two ceiling mounted ones please! DI2A6605 photos by: sam sing of lunya Lunya's Office - Get the Look via Oh, I Design Blog Get the Look:

MY LOCAL SUMMER GEM

June 16, 2016

oh, i design blog Warm weather in Boston means we all find a way to get outside everyday to savor the sunshine while it lasts. Especially when you live a few blocks from a quaint neighborhood beach which happens to be my favorite afternoon activity as of late. Since we moved into our home a year ago, we have spent many days at this beach; a few times when I was in my last few weeks of pregnancy and wanting to walk everywhere…and now a few times with Evie and Bella. This is also where you can walk/run along the Harbor Walk, a walkway that follows the edge of beaches, piers and shorelines of the gorgeous Boston Harbor.
oh, i design blog Evie loves to be outside, so this has been a great afternoon setting for us. I can bring some magazines and books I’ve been putting off reading and a couple toys for Evie to play with, an iced coffee and we are good to go.

The kind folks at Garnet Hill gifted me this basket tote to get us extra excited about beach adventures this Summer. Every beach outing needs a cute beach bag…am I right?!
