Hi! I have switched my blogging platform from Tumblr to Squarespace! So you can my new posts (and all the old posts) over at BROOKE-KIERNAN.COM!
Here is a little instagram update! I think my favorite photo would have to be the last one because there are TEN WINE GLASSES in it! Count it! TEN! And yes, I count champagne flutes as wine glasses because technically, it was SPARKLING WINE since it was produced in Sonoma and not in the Champagne region of France. Nifty!
Back from Sonoma! It was SUCH a fun little vacation up in wine country. EKD and I sunned by the pool (always with SPF), drank lots of sparkling wine (EDK was our spot), ate delicious California cuisine (al fresco under twinkly lights), watched the fireworks (romantically with each other), shopped around town (with our aviators on) and escaped from the city (gorgeous scenery). I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July!
I’m off to Sonoma to celebrate the fourth by bronzing by the pool and drinking California wine! Have a great holiday! AMERICA!
I have been NEEDING new music (…until One Direction produces a new song…WHAT!) Thankfully, RAC put out a new remix (I also love this remix of the remix) and it’s a total JAM! RAC not only makes great music, but they seriously know how to take music and make it better. For example, THIS song. WAY BETTER THAT I CAN’T! Click HERE or the graphic I made above for the song!
Tomorrow, or really, by the time you’ll be reading this, TODAY I am going to OYSTERFEST! San Francisco festival season is always a gorgeous time of year here in the city. The temperatures reach a whopping 65+ degrees, you get to wear trendy sunglasses, establish your personal space in the beer garden and eat from ridiculous food trucks. THIS PERFECTLY explains how I feel! And you all ask, why is San Francisco SO GREAT?
PS: Randomly made this graphic! I’ve been trying to stay on my designing game this summer to make sure I’m not rusty in the fall for my Adobe-oriented classes!
First up, I ate a random plate of vegetables and orzo for dinner last night and it was simple and divine. Secondly, look at my new JEWELS! I love pretty little bracelets, especially those that are gold, sparkly and/or featuring gems. The leather bracelet on the far right is even more exquisite in person! The designer, By Dafne, is originally from Paris, but lives in Florida, and Les Deux Copines (Pearl’s favorite boutique of all time) is the only store that carries her pieces outside of Florida! So lovely. Also, I couldn’t pass up sparkly gold beads and a gorgeously jeweled EVIL EYE! I mean, COME ON!
OH WOW! My design-like life is about to take off like CRAZY! I just downloaded Adobe CS6, a new blog layout is underway and I am attending the ALT SUMMIT IN NYC IN AUGUST!!!!!!!! Many #icant moments have ensued within the past week. In addition to those exciting elements, I’m taking a photography class in early July! Again, #icant. Above is a little snippet of how much fun I’ve been having with photoshop. Ever since celebrating EKD’s 21st birthday, I have been wanting to dress up and attend another summer soiree! Drink champagne, paint my nails, have an excuse to buy another NARS lipstick, live by this quote and re-wear my dress and shoes from this past spring!
COASTERS! Coming atcha soon. Possibly stationery too! Oh man, I REALLY hope I can find a vendor with turquoise foil because it’s INSANE! I also need to do more research on Beyonce’s copyright because I srsly just want to make this one:
