My very favorite thing that Free People has ever made...

Did any of you happen to see the fantastic short film: Roshambo that Free People released a few months ago?  It was produced as a video accompaniment to the love story featured in their February catalog.  I think I watched it enough for everyone.  The little film even inspired me to include a mini love story in our Ambiance Summer lookbook.  Can you see the influence?

Sooo, Roshambo... The story, chemistry, cinematography, music, the clothes and styling... I loved it so much.  And I loved that it was short- it left me wanting more more more.  Well, I'm happy to say... those crafty Free Peeps heard the outcry and delivered the goods.  They've just released a much-anticipated follow up film, entitled Roshambo Rock; a flashback to Sheila and Chris (Sheila Marquez and Chris Abbott of Girls fame) before their chance reunion in New York (featured in the first film).  In this one, Sheila and Chris have just broken up and her friends whisk her off to Rio to cheer her up.  Enter sun, sand, loads of beach-y summer-y FP duds, and the instantly-smitten Diego (played by real-life Spanish polo player Diego Osorio).  Now watch all kinds of fancy Free People magic happen.

This one was for (surprise, surprise) VALENTINE'S DAY!!! Yes, I'll be milking it all week.

Kalsee and I had a lot of fun making a big mess at Ambiance.  And I had not even a little bit of fun blowing up gazilllllllions of balloons.  Seriously, I need to just invest in a pump already...

Oh, darling...

I recently discovered Darling Magazine via my friend Grant, and instantly fell in love with their mission and voice.
It’s a different kind of magazine- not only incredibly artful and clean, but full of thought provoking, meaningful
articles written by intelligent women. Darling is a breath of fresh air.

This gorgeous quarterly is full of wisdom and inspiration, touching on every element of your life- from home, 

to relationships, fashion, and beauty. Photos are never photoshopped and women are always shown in their 

true (beautiful) state. If Audrey Hepburn had designed a magazine, this would be it.  

See their mission statement below:

Hooray!!! DARLING is available now at AMBIANCE!

A peek at a few of their most popular articles: photoshopping our souls away, i don’t want to compete anymore, redefining beauty, healthy vs. skinny, and the naked brunch.

State of Grace...

Ambiance Holiday Magic... Are you in the video?

I'm not!  But that's ok... I got to wear my favorite gold party dress and hot pink feathers in my hair, 

and then hide behind a camera all night.  M Y   K I N D A,  P A R T Y ! ! !

It really was a great party- the food was ohmygosh... TOO good.  The Range really outdid themselves.  And Carlos is officially my favorite DJ in town.  Everyone talked about how fun the music was all night.  We had ridiculous machete juggling, over-sized unicycle riding, and yeah- a crazy guy who had to be escorted out.
You KNOW the party's hot when the crazies come a'calling.  

For those of you who missed it, I hope to see you there next time.
And for those of you who partook... let me know if I caught you on camera, k?  

♥,

       

SUCCESS!
