Lanvin for H&M

This post could otherwise be titled, "Where Elizabeth Will Be at 10am on Saturday Morning." Because seriously, I am EXCITED about this amazing collaboration. Everything I have read from the previews is that this is the real deal, with quality pieces worth buying. The price points support this, as it is not a cheap diffusion line like the many collections seen at Target. Ranging from $40 for a t-shirt to $200 for a cocktail dress, it's super-cheap for Lanvin but a splurge compared to usual H&M purchases. Personally I have my eye on the two-tone fur jacket, the yellow, one-shouldered party dress, and definitely the teal, ribbon-trimmed pumps. I'm lucky enough to have a number of "real" Lanvin pieces from season's past, but I will have no problem adding some of these lovely items to the mix! 

So, what do you all think? Worth a look, or not your thing? Will you be in line on Saturday morning?

I'm obsessed with the maximalist-chic home of Jane (Sea of Shoes) and Judy (Atlantis Home) Aldridge...

I haven't been able to stop thinking about this gorgeous home that was featured on Design Sponge the other week. I believe it belongs to a designer who works for M Design Interiors, which would totally make sense since they do such amazing work. Anyway, do not be surprised if I end up painting my living room a deep royal blue and hanging coral pink silk curtains, because it's just too perfect not to rip off!

I've been away

... but I'm very happy to be back now! It's been a busy fall and I've found it harder and harder to keep up with my Peacock Feathers posts. But I miss being here, and I miss hearing from all of you. So here I am, ready to share some new projects and, of course, all the pretty things that inspire me! As for the picture above - well, I've been hanging a lot of new pictures in my house, so it seemed appropriate to me, even if it doesn't to anyone else! Anyway, back to blogging...

I'm longing for the deep, sexy jewel tones of fall... especially with bits of gleaming gold...
