The Gold Rush.

5.5.2011

So this last weekend I was lucky to attend a beautiful 1920s themed wedding. A few post back I mentioned I looked to it-girl of the 20s, Clara Bow for inspiration.  I didn’t want to be to costume-y.  So I went with a “elegant + chic with a dash of retro” theme.  I made my headpiece with feathers, tulle + little white flowers.  I definitely had fun with this theme, and i think everyone else did too, so many fun hats!

If you have read my about section, you know i put a call out to The Roebling Tea Room. One of my fave spots in Brooklyn. Spring afternoons I definitely love to come here and sketch my little heart out. It is rare to find such huge spaces in New York, and the fact that they played the whole album of Hall + Oates Greatest. Well that is what got me.  You have to take advantage of the places you love in NYC, all of a sudden they could be gone, is it really true about Don Hills??
