Happy Easter {Inspiration} + My Week in Review

Hoppy - I mean Happy - Easter, gang! What are you thankful for this Easter weekend? For me, it's the beautiful and sunny weekend we've been experiencing in Toronto. It's been the perfect Spring-like weather. Doing some errands this morning left me in a bit of a sweat so I know that summer is just around the corner. Today I leave you with some things that inspired me this Easter season: Pantone eggs, decorations made from actual paint chips and cheeky place-cards that are sure to make your guests giggle. I hope that you have a safe and enjoyable Easter filled with laughter, love and good memories!

If you're looking for home goods that are trendy, youthful, playful, and vintage - with a modern twist - Urban Outfitters {Apartment} is the place to look. I browsed through their Look Book from the April 2012 catalog and was impressed by their use of bold, eye-catching colours and how they incorporate a vintage or retro look while still maintaining the modern and design-forward flare. Many of their pieces come in a variety of colour choices, like the Stella wall lamp (which also comes in a mustard yellow) or the Brass leaf side table (also available in a funky green). One of my current favourite trends is Navajo prints and I'm loving all of the patterned bedding and tapestries. I'm also a fan of the cute little nicknacks that they have -- like a Sunshine bird votive candle holder or a tropical flower hook. What are your favourite things about these April looks? Which one is your favourite?
