now that a very busy & amazing wedding season has come to a close, I’m kicking off a winter of blogging with my  shoot with the lovely team over at Style Me Pretty. they produced *the* most incredible thanksgiving spread complete with an e-guide on how to hostess your holiday with style & grace. don’t miss all of their DIY projects too…the faux coral candlesticks [above] was my favorite and I now have them [after one messy evening that I navigated with a tall cocktail] gracing my dining room table…so simple + sweet.
