Simple & crisp....black, tan & white!

Personal stationery is my specialty! And my new obsession is chandeliers!

I noticed in Rachel Zoe's book, she has this hanging above her desk. Such a simple, yet fashionable poster!:)

I LOVE chandeliers! When I decorated my room, I just had to have one above my bed! They're so dreamy & romantic!

I love the colors & layout of this room. A bold splash of color amung neutral tones is how I like to do it too!

This was a great movie. It's out on DVD now. It's about Edie Sedgwick's life. She was from Santa Ynez, California & grew up on a ranch. Very interesting story. She was Andy Warhol's muse.

This photo was in a home/garden magazine. Carolyn Murphy is one of my faves. She surfs and is environmentally aware & could her shorts be any more cute?

I adore Aerin Lauder. I think she's beautiful & Stylish. I love reading articles about her in fashion magazines. She seems so classy & smart with her business ways.

Me & my man booked a trip to San Francisco for late December. I can't wait!

I'm going to make these sometime before Christmas. They're called Pumpkin Whoopie Pies. Anything with pumpkin is sooooooooo yummy!

Tory Burch was recently on Martha Stewart. Her clothes are beautiful. I love her style! I'd love a pair of her flats!

Is anyone else as obsessed with "The Hills" as I am. Ok, that's a ridiculous question..of course!

I look forward to relaxin' with a glass of wine on Monday night to watch this guilty pleasure!

This was a close runner up as my new homepage. I might switch it up from time to time! My parents just returned from Paris and my mom takes the most amazing photos. She will make books of her photos. She really needs to use her photography to reach more people....she really can capture a moment. So many of my friends LOVE when my mom is at their wedding..she'll really get some great shots! (Go Kath!)

This was my most popular holiday card last year. Recently, "Flowers by Emily" asked me to design 3 cards to carry in her store this season & this is one of them! These are for sale on my website: www.bellabykarah.com

This is my favorite image. It's on my website & I'd love a huge poster of it above my bed! It's so whimsical and romantic!

I love getting orders for wedding invitations. Working with women to create the most unique invitations. These are the most popular right now (envelopments.)

I made this arrangement using dried flowers, etc. from Michaels & Joann fabrics. Next, I will attempt to paint this!

Has anyone tried these lil' cans o' champagne. They're so cute & such a perfect gift or celebration idea!

I love Alicia Bock's photography & this is my favorite photo on her site, it's titled, "Awakening." Check out her site at: www.aliciabock.com

Finally...

I am updating my blog. I hope to be up & running soon. Still trying to play around & figure things out! I will link this to my website: www.bellabykarah.com

Talk to you soon...Happy Holidays!
