Spring is officially here and in a few weeks we will be celebrating Easter.
Finding the Easter basket on Easter morning is a tradition my kids look forward to-even now as teenagers. In each of their baskets {similar to the one in the picture above} there will be sweets, chocolates and a little something special. To personalize their baskets this year, I’ve created tags with this adorable French rabbit from The Graphic Fairy.

A clean and simple display of all things white.
I can’t say that the rest of my house is as neat and tidy as this picture of my display shelves, but little by little progress has been made. When it comes to tackling a project or the chore list, I tend to start on something small to motivate me to keep going. In the midst of cleaning and organizing, the forgotten last remnant of Christmas decorations was finally taken down this week. Yes, I did say Christmas.

These Apricot Oatmeal Scones are a variation of Hollyce’s Oatmeal Scones. Every now and then I like to change or substitute ingredients in a recipe. I used dried apricots instead of currants, omitted orange zest, and added sugar sprinkle for the topping.
Oscar de la Renta {above}, in a moment backstage before he made an appearance to the audience after his Spring 2015 show. This photo was taken by Miguel Yatco. It was the last show before Oscar de la Renta passed away on October 20, 2014. He was the man who dressed women in beautiful clothes for decades. I will be sharing more about Oscar de la Renta and his influence in the fashion industry for the past 5 decades in my “part 2”. But for now, enjoy his beautiful collect for spring.

Oscar de la Renta spring 2015 collection is simply beautiful and visually pleasing. The look is youthful, fresh and as always elegant and classic.
