Style Guide: Rime Arodaky Wedding Gowns

Just in time for Valentine's Day, a post on wedding dresses. But not just any wedding dresses- these beautiful creations are by French designer Rime Arodaky, and have a very special boho-chic flair to them. 

It's the worst when brides step out looking like prom queens, but I think these are the absolute perfect combination of glamour and not taking yourself too seriously. Look #1 is my favorite.

Follow Me: Instagram

My name is Kathryn Leigh Elizabeth Ierubino and I'm addicted to Instagram. There. I said it. If you're one of my followers on this app, you'll know how much I love it. Or even if you're not a follower (yet) and we're hanging out, I'm probably spending a good amount of that time taking pictures for it. I've turned into that kind of addict. Below are some of my favorite shots I've taken over the past couple of months. To see more, download the app and follow me @kathryn_elizabeth!

Read This: Domino Special Issue!

Condé Nast announced today that are publishing a Domino Magazine special edition, Domino Quick Fixes, on April 17th. It will be filled with "the best home decorating stories, focusing on easy, often inexpensive changes that make a big difference." Since Domino used to be one of the only pubs I actually went out and bought regularly, I'm truly excited for this!



Object of Desire: Isabel Marant Limited Edition Watch

Isabel Marant is further branching out her amazing brand into the accessories market with a limited edition watch produced by JEM. Inspired by a hand-me-down piece from her father, there will only be 50 on offer around the world. Here is more information.




Object of Desire: Black Toothbrush

I saw this charcoal toothbrush over at Emily's Cupcakes and Cashmere and loved the simplicity of the design. Pretty? Yes. Can charcoal really be that good for your teeth? Verdict is still out on that. Shop here if you dare!

Agenda: L.A. Weekend

It's almost the weekend and I'm super excited to not be traveling or sick, and actually have time to relax and explore. Here's what's on the agenda:

- Checking out Jason Wu at Target
- Drinks at The Palihouse in West Hollywood (Has anyone been here? Is it fun?)
- Seeing 'Pacific Standard Time' at The Getty before it closes
- Finally trying Intelligentsia (I've been here for 1.5 years, but I'm on team Caffe Luxxe)
- Scoping Surfing Cowboys on Abbot Kinney
- And then there's my cycling classes and doing some homework for a class I started taking

Of course, I'm sure I'll get some Superbowl action in there somewhere. Bon Weekend! xx
