Marco Suarez
I don’t know how else to explain it, these mesmerizing pieces by Marco Suarez look and feel like home to me. Must be the circles. Circles make everything better.

Break Soap
Break Soap by Dave Hakkens is some kind of brilliant. Natural hand soap is formed into a block with different sized pieces, the dirtier your hands are the bigger the piece you break off. And since you don’t ever touch the entire block, everything is kept nice and hygienic. One block equals roughly ninety hand washes.
{Thanks, Anne!}

Donuts vs Doughnuts
The donut vs doughnut debate is an old one, I usually go with the latter. What I’m more concerned about is making these yummy little lumps of dough their own food group. I would own it. (As always, click on the image to be taken to the recipe.)

Toy Stories
I’ve been smiling devilishly every time I look at one of Aled Lewis’s Toy Story prints. Maybe you will, too.

Summer Wedding Wardrobe
The wedding season is almost upon us, and I have three very different weddings to attend this summer. I already purchased this dress for the first in May, but still need to get my wardrobe up to speed for the others. Here’s just a little about the events and the sort of look I’m going to attempt for each one. Do you have a go-to outfit for nuptials?
The first a late morning event, followed by a low-key reception and after-party.
Dress: Mondrian Print Dress, Calypso St. Barth
Shoes: Bonneville Wedges, Anthropologie
The second in the evening, held at an upscale location full of pomp and circumstance.
Dress: Oversize Sequin Shift Dress, ASOS (check out the back!)
Shoes: Two-Tone Sequin Pump, BCBG/Max Azria
And the third, a ceremony that remains shrouded in mystery.
Dress: Camilla silk-crepe dress, Temperley London
Shoes: Marguertie, Nine West

Thanks to Avril Loretti, my love/unhealthy obsession with paint chips now has a place in the kitchen. {via Anna Liesemeyer’s Pinterest}

Delta
These jewel-shaped Delta lamps from Robert Abbey have great angles and come in a plethora of colors. That drum shade seals the deal. {via Rue}
