pixy picks: WEST COAST CRAFT :: SF
http://pixypicks.blogspot.com/2013/11/west-coast-craft-san-francisco.html
WEST COAST CRAFT : SF. Sunday was a perfect day to stroll over to Fort Mason for West Coast Craft. The weather was pleasant, the location was walkable distance and I had just finished up a latte date with a good, fellow artsy friend. Unlike the Renegade craft fair, West Coast Craft is more curated and requires an application process for all prospective designers, artists and craftspeople. Quilt by ria leigh. Jewelry goods by jen lorang (oakland). Chair by pacific wonderland (los angeles).

My idol. With his successful career aside (Creative Dev at Bobbi Brown and original founder of MAC) he has captured the hearts of runway and art enthusiasts alike through his whimsical and playful freehand artwork. Each doodle is a friendly reminder that there is always time for creative breaks from our busy schedules. His doodles are on anything, doodled at any given time, and doodled about what ever comes to mind- but mostly runway. This style in particular being impromptu, cheery and effortlessly chic.

pixy picks: PARTY AT THE YACHT CLUB
http://pixypicks.blogspot.com/2014/06/soiree-st-francis-yacht-club.html
PARTY AT THE YACHT CLUB. Having eloped in Phuket, Thailand in November of 2013, the Stevens planned for a celebration exactly 6 months later, in their home town surrounded by loved ones. St. Francis Yacht Club was the perfect place for the May celebration, with pleasant temperatures on the Marina with the Golden Gate Bridge at sunset as a backdrop. Not wanting to compete with the prevalent "nautical" theme throughout the club, I happily embraced it. Inspiration: classic navy white with a punch of pink.

pixy picks: ALL ABOUT AUSTIN
http://pixypicks.blogspot.com/2014/06/austin-inspiration.html
Another memorable trip to Austin on the books. This trip was different than past trips, in that there were no plans, no agendas, no sight-seeing. I was an honorary Austinite for the week, roaming and exploring South Congress by foot during the day and wining and dining the hotspots at night with my true. Austinite sisters. I admire the playful design of coffee shops, bars and restaurants, the overgrown foliage in front yards, the "anything goes" lifestyle- so organic and effortlessly cool.
