Truly Smitten

Happy New Year!! As I’m typing this, I’m hearing people outside wishing random strangers a good and happy 2013. It fascinates me how this one night can really bring people together to celebrate new hopes and dreams for the future as well as deep reflections and lessons of the past. This past year, I have done a ton of reflecting and honestly, not so much growing…which is why I’m feeling so blessed to have met my business partner and friend, Lindsay, who has absolutely challenged me in the best way possible as a designer and business owner (couldn’t have made all this happen without you, girl!). I also want to take this moment to truly thank from the very bottom of my heart to all my dear friends and families that have supported me this entire process. My husband has been so incredibly encouraging, selfless, and my biggest fan of my designs and ideas, so thank you, my dearest darling.

Now I’d like to announce that after months of hard work and endless late night brainstorming sessions, Lindsay and I are so freaking happy to finally launch our Hello Monday website and blog! We are also having a great logo design giveaway at our new blog. Check it out here at www.hello-monday.com.

Here’s to an amazing and healthy 2013!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I can’t believe it’s already over. I really enjoyed seeing everyone’s holiday festivities via instagram and blog and made me wish I had more Christmas traditions amongst our family. Well, actually, I take that back. This year was the first for my husband and me to get a real tree and hope to continue this every year. Anyhoo, just wanted to share a few highlights from this month.

Our annual white elephant christmas party! Lots of laughs shared with great friends.

Delicious (and gorgeous) holiday brunch get together with fellow design friends!

Christmas gift to myself: my first Louboutins!

Our very first real tree.
