Instant Inspiration: 5 Pinterest Boards We Can’t Get Enough Of

A Tuesday roundup of our recent Pinterest obsessions

BLG-1468 Pinboards Featuring Mariposa 1. Because Mariposa knows that life’s too short to pass on the (wedding) cake.

2. Lazy weekend uniform – check. Just add breakfast in bed.

3. Our closet is begging for these of-the-moment picks.

4. Seeking happiness? Just smile. (And some reminders couldn’t hurt, either.)

5. Pomegranate applesauce. Sweet-potato chips. These healthy eats have us ready to cook up a storm.

Chitter Chatter

From fashion industry bigwigs to Monday morning jams, here’s what we’re buzzing about this week

BLG-1463 Chitter Chatter 5-13

Get to Know: Some of the fashion industry’s biggest behind-the-scenes influencers. Looks like we have five new people to idolize.

Know: Gwyneth Paltrow did not enjoy the Met Gala. But not to worry – we’re more than happy to take her spot next year.

Listen To: The ultimate at-work playlist. Because, we get it – Mondays are rough.

Tell Us: Whose campaign was better? We’re remaining neutral on this one, but we’d gladly rock both pairs of heels.

Behind the Scenes: Our Mother’s Day Login

Unknown

The fact that our Members’ moms have style is practically a given. So, in honor of Mother’s Day, we gave you a chance to prove it and be featured on our login page – and we received an outpouring of photos and aphorisms on our Facebook and Twitter. With them, we compiled (drumroll, please)… today’s login. We couldn’t include every picture in the interest of space, but some of the others will get their due fame on our Twitter feed. Happy Mother’s Day! #MomStyle

It’s a Blogger’s World (We Just Live in It)

Our top 4 picks of the week

 
bloggers

1. j’adore couture
We’ll be taking our early-morning (and late-morning, and early-afternoon…) coffee with a hefty dose of pretty stacked rings now, thankyouverymuch.

2. Fashion Chalet
When a girl can pull off riding pants, neon, and a sequinny clutch – while walking around in the woods – we like her. Instantly.

3. allie wears
Reason to add more stripes and caged sandals to our arsenal immediately. (As if we needed one.)

4. seersucker + saddles
Summer preppy. Slightly glam. If drinking lemonade on the front porch of a Nantucket beach house were a blog, this would be it.

5 Style Bytes You May Have Missed

‪@TheEllenShow: I can’t believe I have 19 million followers. If we all held hands, it would be really nice.
We’ll bring the hand sanitizer.

‪@ZooeyDeschanel: My 9 pound terrier mix just chewed through a very nice pair of shoes. I should be mad, but I’m just too impressed with her dedication.
And that, friends, is how you know you have too many shoes.

‪@GluteusMike: Wow it’s nice out, wow I’m inside.
Consider this our new springtime mantra.

@andrew_jenkins: Against my better judgement, I am going to bake a cake tonight. Whether I eat the entire thing or not… we’ll see.
Us, too. (And… us, too.)

‏‪@Possessionista: It has literally taken me 12 hours to unload my dishwasher. Thanks, Twitter.
Sounds like our workday. Minus the dishwasher.

It’s a Blogger’s World (We Just Live in It)

Our top 4 picks of the week

bloggers

1. Girls Off Fifth
NYC-steeped style, with a side of gold-dipped bull skulls. Don’t ask, just go.

2. What Katie Ate
What Katie ate, in all its gorgeously photographed glory. Seriously too pretty to eat.

3. OnTheRacks
A master at layering the unexpected, this San Fran transplant has us taking a bold new look at our closets.

4. Carrots ‘N’ Cake
Adore Tina’s food and fitness inspiration – and the simple fact that she calls Boston home. (Marylou’s Coffee abounds.)

5 Style Bytes You May Have Missed

‏‪@eye4style: I can’t deal with cork, rattan, wicker or espadrille in advance of Memorial Day, the end.
Just. One. More. Month. We’re dying here.

‪@KennethCole: Unsolicited advice for the day: Accept that some days you’re the pigeon, and some days you’re the statue.  ‪#dontlookup ‪#wisdom
We feel quite pigeon-like today, thankyouverymuch.

‪@TimGunn: From the Middle Ages to the 17th century, men wore tights. But even they would be shocked by meggings. ‪#FashionHistory
Probably. But you have to admit, they make things interesting.

‪@thecourtneykerr: Cooking dinner seems like alot of fun until you realize you can’t compliment yourself when it’s really tasty.
Wait – have we been doing dinner wrong this whole time?

‪@mindykaling: “I’d like you to intuit what I’d like to drink, based on my outfit, sir.” – what I say to bartenders now.
This sounds like the best Friday-night game ever.
