KEEPING IT CLASSY WITH VEUVE CLICQUOT

 I think my invitation to Veuve Clicquot’s Polo Classic at Liberty State Park in New York got lost in the mail this year. Veuve Clicquot hosted a gorgeous party complete with endless bubbly and appetizers that look too good to eat. Luckily, I can live vicariously through  these stunning pictures from the extremely talented, Jamie of Ann Street Studio.

I have not quite mastered the mix, but these ladies sure have! What are your thoughts on mixing patterns?

LINK LOVE





Tiel Duncan is an oil painter based in Charleston, South Carolina. My mom showed me one of her paintings that she is buying for our house in Newport and ever since I laid eyes on her portfolio I fell in love. Tiel's bright abstract nudes are my favorite, and they are affordable too! I have a feeling you will be seeing a lot more of her on Daily Crush in the near future : )

I recently came across the gorgeous Sydney home of Simone Giorgi. The gorgeous wallpaper caught my eye, but then I realized I love it all! 

The June issue of Matchbook Magazine features textile designer John Rob Robshaw. I first saw his pillows at Calypso Saint Barths and loved his fresh, worldly and colorful prints

Always browsing Pinterest for yummy recipes. This summer salad from epicurious is a tomoato and watermelon salad, I plan on making it this weekend!

CRUSH OF THE DAY:CLAIRE DESJARDINS








Claire Desjardins' work first caught my eye while browsing Pinterest a few weeks ago. I found her blog, and I am hooked! Claire is a contemporary artist out of Montreal, Canada. Her interest in graffiti, street art and abstract expressionism is apparent in the vibrant colors and forms of her work. I would love one of her big pieces to hang over my couch in my new apartment!

SUMMER MONOCHROME











I love wearing black. All year round. It's easy, sleek, and of course that nice little slimming effect it has is an added bonus. Sure, it may be a bit uncomfortable if you’re living in desert like temperatures, but look how effortlessly chic each of these women look #dailycrush!

Today I'm sharing with you all my secret, easy to make recipe, I hope you enjoy! Cheers!
