I love these black and white paper cut prints from Elsita. I remembering seeing these prints awhile back and of course forgetting where I saw them. I discovered them again via the delightful blog, annsage.com. Elsita’s paper cuts are prints of the original pieces. I totally need to add one of these to my art wall. Prints will run you $25 for a 8.5″ x 11″ piece. Check out more from Elsita: etsy.com.

Scarves: Matta

The weather totally sucks today in New England. Cold, gray, and rainy. I just took a little jaunt down the street for my second latte of the day when I spotted these scarves at my favorite new clothing store, French + Italian. French + Italian is full of decadent clothing and accessories that feel simple, earthy, and classic.

Tied around a simple gray tee was my newest obsession (above). Elegant turquoise and emerald greens flowers abstractly dance around a gorgeous 100% wool scarf. A great accessory for the fall to brighten up a simple wardrobe—like my new work from home basics.

The scarf is made by a NY based company, Matta. They carry a great selection of global inspired clothing and accessories. I am smitten with their scarves. Prices range from $100-$156. I know they are really pricey! Buy one and make it your signature piece for the entire winter. Seriously you will grab this scarf every time its cold and miserable outside.

I am working on a new banner for my blog. I spotted this script at The Mermaid Inn a few months ago. The curvy lines of the script are thin enough that its not too fancy or feminine. I am thinking about incorporating a script like this with a line landscape drawing of Marblehead. Maybe in all black and white? We’ll see how it goes! Be sure to check out The Mermaid Inn’s website. A few screenshots of their super cute website below.
