We Think You'll Love...

We think you'll love this delightful bridal lingerie line from Panty By Post.


We love the philosophies of good ol' fashioned customer service from the founders Lori and Natalie. Just read what they have to say:


"We want to offer you good old-fashioned service, just like the way it used to be. We'll stop at almost nothing to make sure you're happy. We believe in a customer-focused business and no matter how big we grow, we'll always be rooted to that. We are positive that every great company actually should care about the thoughts and ideas of its clients. We see possibilities and opportunities to grow along with our customers. We hold dear to the idea that the more we participate in our communities, be it global or local, the more joy we'll get out of running PBP. So keep in touch with us, share your thoughts and your ideas. We're excited to share the excitement with you.

We believe that beauty radiates from within. Like the first sip of your favorite glass of red wine or a particular song that connects you to a feeling, what we wear underneath speaks words on the surface. Let our panties tell your stories."

Get Inspired: Two Lips, Tulips, Two Hearts, One Love

Over the weekend we saw a special feature on the ability to grow tulips in warmer climates. Because we live in the Pacific Northwest, tulips grow beautifully and easily in our very own backyards. Since we are gearing up toward the peak tulip season in our area, we've designed today's inspiration board as a celebration of this wonderful time of year.

Theme: Two Lips and Tulips
Colors: Bright Purple and Fuchsia, with touches of Green



Top Row: Multicolored bouquet from Flower Picture Gallery; Fiona tulip invitations from Designer Pi; Parrot tulip wedding cake from Studio Cake
Second Row: Vintage wedding gown photography from Kelli Jo; Real weddings from The Knot; Silk tulip dress from H&M
Third Row: Dramatic black calla lilies and tulips from Wedding Flower Ideas; French Tulip flower girl shoes from Cade and Co.
Bottom Row: Tulip earrings from Art Made By Tammy; Wholesale tulips from Wholesale Blossoms; Bridesmaids featured by Platinum Weddings

New Eco-Friendly Honeymoon Attire from H&M

Don't you just love it when big companies do big things to improve the environment. So do we. And we especially love it when they do it in such a way that we benefit personally. Talk about a double-bonus. From H&M comes a new Garden Collection, a perfect wardrobe collection for your upcoming honeymoon. The Garden Collection by H&M is made with environmentally adapted materials like recycled polyester, organic cotton and organic linen. By choosing these garments you contribute to a more sustainable world.

Plus these garments are incredibly adorable. Just check out a sample below.

Butch Meets Bakery

What is it about a cupcake that makes a woman's heart go pitter-patter? Is it the miniature size that makes us think we are eating less? Or perhaps it's the gob of sweet, sugary delight neatly swirled on top? No matter the reason, cupcakes are a woman's pure delight. But, why don't men seem to respond in the same way when offered a little perfectly packaged treat? What is it about a cupcake that somehow makes it just a little bit girly?

Well, for all those men out there that believe cupcakes are for women, we have a revolutionary culinary treat for you. From a New York bakery called Butch Bakery, comes a new wave of masculinity in the form of a tasty sweet treat.


Choose from six styles of cupcakes: Woodland Camo, Wood Grain, Houndstooth, Plaid, Checkerboard or Marble. You can also choose from 12 flavors including: Rum & Coke (the pause that refreshes - this rum-soaked madagascar vanilla cake with cola bavarian cream filling is a knockout), B-52 (this one is the bomb: kahlua-soaked madagascar vanilla cake with Bailey's bavarian filling), Campout (you'll be begging for s'more of this graham cracker cake with marshmallow filling and milk-chocolate ganache), and Beer Run (butch meets buttercream in our chocolate beer cake with beer-infused buttercream topped with crushed pretzels).

The ladies are officially jealous.

If you don't live in the New York area, don't fret. Butch Bakery is expanding their delivery options this year and should be able to ship to your neck of the woods in no time.
