Masculine Nursery for Baby Evans

1. I love chalkboard walls...DIY here  2. Landon Metz art  3. multi leather rug  4. DIY lighting  5.Celadon Cow hide chair Chassity bought in Charleston, SC 6. OEUF Sparrow crib that nicely converts into a toddler bed.

My sweet friend Chassity ( remember her from my series ) from LOOK LINGER LOVE is pregnant with a BOY and had a bunch of interior decorators/bloggers put together a room for the little man to feature here.  I'm no interior designer but I LOVE to decorate!  Since I first heard of her series I started to LOOK at all things nursery on my PINTEREST page and so I hope you'll LINGER here a bit and check out my MASCULINE ROOM. Thank you Chassity for including me among these talented decorators:)

I think simple is best and keeping things calm and natural will help the baby grow up this way too. I can see lots of wooden toys here and black and white doodles framed in a abstract way like this.  However you decide to decorate your child's room it's such a precious time and you'll remember it forever.  I know I remember taping these stripes to paint my own daughter's room at 9 months pregnant then sitting in the room for hours dreaming what it will be like to have a baby there soon....oh the memories

                                                                                                       Enjoy!

LUCKY...

Have you seen LUCKY MAGAZINE NOV ISSUE?  Well if you get your hands on it..watch out!  There is a Reeves family overload in a Special Advertising for VERIZON'S new phone the HTC RHYME!  Have you see the TV commercial for it?  Sometimes I wish I had 6 arms:) We were chosen by Verizon to star in their new Special Advertising Section for a girly phone HTC RHYME and share all about our business, website and blog!  Perhaps some of you reading this have found us through the magazine..if so WELCOME and thanks for visiting:)  This was my first modeling experience and let me just tell you...NOT EASY!  Bending down on my knees for what felt like an hour... while my child bounced off a tilted surfboard, the wood floor burning my knees, legs shaking while holding the phone at the right height with the screen showing, sucking it in, smiling........that was the hardest shot but really made me realize that modeling is hard work!  I'm going to be much more aware of what I put my models through....HA  at least I didn't have to wear a swimsuit!
I want to thank my friends Jana Gale & Alison Matheny at LUCKY for running the show and getting together an amazing team to shoot this ad.  You girls are AWESOME!!!  Photography by the incredible Mr. Fox (Squire Fox that is), styled by the talented Sarah Clary and hair and makeup by   Vivi Lapidus.
Huge thanks to VERIZON! So fun!  Let's do it again soon:ps.  YOu'll be able to shop our new collection featured in these photos with in days!!!  I'll be back to let you know.  xoxo-marysia

Surfing...

Nathaniel is not only awesome at being a hubby, daddy, and CFO of our company but also AWESOME at SURFING!!!  Check out these photos by Joel DeMott taken last weekend in Lewes, Delaware...our fav little point break where we started surfing together 13 years ago. I've become picky about my surfing conditions (old lady conditions) and will only surf warm, clear, nicely lined up ankle snappers but Natty is a sensation to watch in any conditions...he even has a little fan club at this beach:) Little surf rats worship him!

Television...

So it's that time a year again ...nooo I'm not talking about Paris fashion week...I'm talking about your favorite television shows.... here is my list for this season...
Gossip Girl.... I have to admit I love Chuck Bass he's so dark yet unressistable....Serena and Blair have the wardrobe of our dreams and well it's a guilty pleasure kind of a show but it's what I do on Monday evenings.
Heart of Dixie...I want to see how this goes, I like Rachel Bilson's style but I don't know what kind of an actress she is. (It airs on Mondays 9pm after gossip girl).
Lastly, PANAM...i missed the pilot but I'm watching in now here.
Did you see these shows? What's on your list for this season.  I miss Mad Men...anyone know when that's coming on again?  I head they began to work on season 5.
Happy Tuesday!

SWAN LAKE...

I'm soooooo happy to cross another thing on my new year's resolution list!  Last Saturday I took Elle to her first Ballet...SWAN LAKE!!!  New York City Ballet did a spectacular version of this piece of art.  I remember seeing it for the first time while in Ballet school myself...oh how I love the music and the choreography.  After seeing this I have a new resolution...to take ballet again!  Since I left my professional ballet school in Warsaw, Poland I tried to take classes but the level of ballet in Delaware was not so great...especially coming from where I was......anyway now that I live in New York City there are no excuses...I just hope I can still remember something with out getting kicked out...eeek

next up the nutcracker...hope we can score the thanksgiving tickets for the whole family!
Do you guys like ballet?

ps.  did you see the EMMY'S last night? see my favorite looks here
