Hi there and happy Tuesday night to you. Well, we are still digging out of the incredible amounts of snow we got over the weekend but a day of rain has washed some away and left the pristine white snow a muddy dirty color, not so attractive The storm gave me a lot of time (unexpected since we were supposed to be in Boston) on the computer, at home and just catching up. I watched the Grammys Sunday, because I love music for all its many different genres and have to say it was a great one. I felt like everyone went the extra mile to look sophisticated and polished, and everyone seemed to be on their best behavior, for anyone that might have watched, did you feel the same? A lot of random thoughts to share today, mostly girly girl things…..let’s begin shall we!
I can’t help but think about spring and spring dressing. Being able to throw open the windows, spring flowers budding all over the place, dead grass giving way to newly sprouting greenery, that intoxicating spring air…..can you wait? Now that we have had our huge snowfall that I was praying for, I am totally ready for spring! And when I laid eyes on these stunning blue and white dresses, my heart skipped a beat! How gorgeous are they? In love….and calling my name loud and clear!
I think this one dress here is practically enough to get me started on that diet I have been talking about for too long! Love this dress…it would fit in so well with my ginger jars, they must be related! I have never been drawn to anything by Roberto Cavalli but for these two stunners, I make an exception…..
And this top also by my bud, Roberto….gorgeous, love it with the white slacks!
I would wear this to a spring/summertime party, elegantly understated and so chic (Erdem)
And love this beauty…its like wearing a watercolor masterpiece, Erdem…
Moving onto another favorite subject..food. Have I told you I love mushrooms? Especially stuffed mushrooms! Tried these over the weekend from Pioneer woman and they are sooo good!
Stuffed Mushrooms
? pounds Hot Pork Sausage
Salt And Pepper (to Taste)
Brown and crumble sausage. Set aside on a plate to cool.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool at least ten minutes before serving; the stuffed mushrooms taste better when not piping hot. Garnish with minced parsley if you?re feeling fancy.
Kim?s makeup artist spills on what products she uses to get Kim red carpet-ready!
Joyce Bonelli is Kim Kardashian?s makeup artist (well, she actually works with the entire family!)
Gorgeous serving pieces with beautiful choices in handles…..
So glad I read this post before calling it a day. What a gorgeous selection of dresses, just gorgeous. You’ll have me dreaming of warmer weather and nice occasions. Sweet dreams to all!
Happy that the snow is no longer keeping you trapped but the rain with snow not so good. Careful outside. The dresses are so “spring” and will keep my eye out for them. Now the stuffed mushrooms I am drooling right now! thanks for the recipe. I will be sending Kim’s makeup list to my daughter she is such a Kardarshian fan and those salt and pepper shakers look so elegant.
Hi and glad your snow is starting to disappear. My picks are the Aquaphor (now I must go get some), the banquette is wonderful, and the stuffed mushrooms look so appetizing!
Love the new table top that you are launching soon! I will have to buy a set of those wicker serving pieces! Okay I’ll buy the aquaphor! You talked me into it! I really could use it right now but I’m in my Pj’s so it will have to wait until tomorrow. :)Love that Isabel dress! It’s gorgeous!
Loving every single thing here from the dresses to the mushroom recipe to the beautiful porcelains! And that list for Kims makeup is great, many good tips and I think i too need to go out tomorrow and buy Aquaphor!I agree I have no idea what she does but her skin is beautiful and she obviously has a great makeup artist so being the makeup junkie that I am I really appreciate the tips.
Really enjoying my beautiful ginger jars and monogrammed napkins that I bought from you. Thanks Tina-
Wow…those dresses! The 2nd and 3rd ones have MY name written all over them! LOVE them! Yes…get Spring here and NOW! I hate winter…always have and always will! LOVE Fall and Spring…tolerate summer and HATE Winter! Ok…whatever…stuffed mushrooms? YES!!! My absolute favorite side dish! My mother makes the best but Pioneer Woman’s look divine! As for Kim…don’t know much about her but I agree with you on her beauty! And Aquafor…I’ve used it for years…only at night and love it!!! Take care, Tina! hope to be back in the swing of things soon! I sure could use some inspiration on topics to write about!
Love the blue and white dresses – esp the Isabel Marant! I think you should have a blue and white themed party and post photos…
Happy middle of the week to you!

ps – Forwarded your blog to my friend Cecily who has a great blog – Cecyj.com. She’s interested in starting an e-commerce site. Told her to check out yours for inspiration and possibly some advice!
Tina, the mushrooms have me wanting to forget all about my diet. They look so good!
Thanks for the makeup tips for Kim, her makeup is always perfect so I am super happy to see this list, looks like I will be out buying new products tomorrow!
The new products are gorgeous and I love that you are adding tabletop, that is such a great way to extend your wonderful taste and style. Look forward to seeing all the new items.
Love these posts, so much good information on all my favorite subjects!
I saw the Dolce & Gabbana Spring outfits today and I almost died they are so beautiful, but they are hard to forget also, so I’m thinking long & hard about spending the $$ on an outfit people could see me coming & going in, you know. Normally, I’m not a Cavalli girl either, but those 2 pieces are fab. I do think you are a blue & white person through & through!
mmmmmm i am loving the isabel marant and that watercolor beauty. the blues do get my mind on spring and speak of blue skies ahead!
thanks for the mushroom recipe. holy yum.
mom swears by chanel hydramax plus cream for moisturizer. she has less lines and wrinkles than me (but she has never been in the sun either). i have to pick up some.
smiles to you.

Hi Tina! So fun to hear what Kim K.is using on her skin. I like the aquahphor on my nails and really dry areas:) The mushrooms look so good! A group of appetizers makes a great meal for me .. and wine of course! The new blue and whites that you are getting in are gorgeous. I need to get a few things but I just spent a boatload on some (much needed) bedding for one of my guest rooms.
Enjoy your week!

Your posts always make me smile from the stunning blue and white outfits (especially the top), to delicious looking mushrooms, to Aquaphor (which I will be buying tomorrow!)…I can’t wait to see the new goods in the shop!
xoxoxo
Mushrooms sound great. I must get that cream! You always have such great tips, Tina.
Wonderfully crisp and always interesting!
The image of the banquette, I had saved in my “to do” file, the first time I saw it! I love the beautiful blue and white clothes… nice to think about spring!!!
I have to agree about Kim, on so many levels, yet she certainly knows make up and does it well!!!
My darling daughter and two friends are coming here for a “girls” night. Those mushrooms might be a fun thing for us to make. I am wishing I had purchased another of the wooden pieces to use for charcuterie. However, I am looking forward to so many of your newest items, maybe it’s good that I didn’t!!
That first dress brings to mind your ginger jars! I can see why you love it. I’m off to buy Aquaphor today. It is such good stuff for hands – mine get so chapped this time of year. I think I might use it under my eyes at night as opposed to an eye cream. xo
Good morning Tina! I will always be a day late for your glorious posts, but so refreshed by all the lovely blues you share with us. Those dresses, OH MY…so perfect for spring. YOU TOO are digging yourself out of the snow? We had a ton dumped on us too, but we had quite a bit of help by high temps yesterday. Now we have puddles all around.
I hope one day, you come across a silver cake pedestal like the one I showed you. I cannot find them anywhere here!
Enjoy your day, Anita
Tina,
Those dresses are gorgeous and reflect your love of blue and white. I can totally see you wearing any of those!!
Love the Kim K tips. I do think she is gorgeous and knew there had to be some special tips from her ever present makeup artist! Aquaphor will be in my cart this afternoon!!!
LOVING those rattan tabletop pieces….I think I need to add to my small collection. Will check them out.
Happy Valentine’s Day…treat yourself right!
xoxo Elizabeth
That first dress is breathtaking!! And I have a feeling that Isabel Marant dress is going to be the IT dress of the spring. I keep seeing it everywhere! So pretty.
Big Aquaphor fans at out house as well. We have tubes in our cars, on our nightstands, in our medicine cabinets, and who knows where else?!? It really is a miracle worker!
What wonderful fashions – adore the casual dress – perfect for everyday! Can’t wait to see your new tabletop goodies. The silverware looks very enticing for a beach house!! Happy Wednesday, Tina ~
Mushrooms, beautiful blue and whites, gorgeous dresses, pretty homes and new goodies- this is what I call a post full of beauty, makes me want one of everything.
Have a great day, just love your blog, its the best!

And yay to all the dresses… xv
Tina, the clothes look just like your design style! I love them! And I always love your makeup tips.

Stunning Tina, the long soft blue and yellow gown is for me! Roberto really designed the dresses just for you! Those are a perfect match to your home decor ((:
They are beautiful.
That banquette is in my favorite nooks file(: and I think I am feeling the winter abuse on my skin so the make up tips will be handy too… Or even just a distraction… Planning to spend spring in the Czech republic so I will get some this year….
Hugs z
The outfits are so your style Tina! I love blue too!
Tina, I LOVE all of the blue and white clothes for Spring! So beautiful! I love your new table top items, you always find the best treasures for the home!
I will have to check out some of these makeup tips, thanks for sharing!
Enjoy your Valentine’s Day, Elizabeth
Tina I do stuffed mushrooms as well with avocado and bacon! So yummy. I love the look of that new Oscar del a Renta perfume. The salt and pepper shaders are stunning and I desperately need some! Have a gorgeous day!

Love the dresses, so fresh and springy. The blue and whites are calling you.
The recipe looks so good. I love mushroom and have gotten many good recipes from her site. Thank you for sharing this one.
Funny just bought the Marchesa perfume for my sister in laws birthday last week, she loved it. Good and fun to know how Kim K. looks so flawless, like you said not a practical “every day” look but when you want to go all out, its fun to know how the pros do it.
Have a good day.
