I love color and patterns, so I decided to mix the two in my recent nail art design! I used a bobby pin for the polka dots, and nailene polish guides for the stripes:

Spotlight on Three Bird Nest Accessories

I was recently in the market for a stylish American flag scarf to take with me to the London 2012 Summer Olympics. I thought a scarf would be the perfect accessory to wear around London to show off my Team USA pride! I immediately headed to Etsy to search for the perfect scarf, and was lucky enough to find the Three Bird Nest shop. I loved the slogan of “charming + girly accessories” and was impressed by the wonderful selection of scarves, headbands, necklaces, and other accessories. When I came across the American flag scarf, I knew I found the absolute perfect accessory to represent Team USA, and I bought one for my mom and me! Thank you Three Bird Nest! The delivery was prompt, and the packaging was lovely and personalized. I can’t wait to take these with us to London.

Make sure to visit and follow the Three Bird Nest Etsy shop, website, Facebook, and Twitter accounts!

Here is the scarf! I love it!

We can even open up our scarves and wave the flag at the Olympic events!

I loved the packaging:

Kate Was Lovely in Lace & the Queen Dazzled in Mint at the Diamond Jubilee Service

This morning in London, a Thanksgiving service was held in the Queen’s honor at St Paul’s Cathedral. Both her and Kate in particular looked exquisite.

Kate wore an Alexander McQueen, nude lace dress, along with a hat by royal milliner Jane Taylor and her LK Bennett heels:
