Finding modern flatware has been somewhat challenging for our registry. We went with Nambe's Mikko pictured above. I feel like modern flatware should be simple and have straight lines, but for some reason designers tend to add weird angles and widths. I also have a pet peeve about holding forks that are too thin. WHYYYY???
Now, if  I wanted to eat with 300 dollar everyday flatware Mono E (or A) is the way to go. Designed by Peter Raacke in 1960 and simply perfect.

Finally tried Yardbird last week, and after hearing quite a few mixed reviews, I can say we had some really good food. Don't miss the Fried Green Tomatoes or pimiento cheese dip.  Skip the ribs.

Mary Katrantzou for Topshop. There goes rent.

Chukkas from Madewell. It seems like every time I find a pair of heels I like, I run into a pair of little boy shoes that I want more. Then both are more than I want to spend, so I end up with nothing but a couple of blog posts.

A Boucherite rug once on display at Calvin Morris. These types of Moroccan rugs are made by women from "torn or reused clothing" and lack the symmetry of typical Middle Eastern rugs.

I can't get enough of Dries Van Noten's Spring Summer 2011 collection. Seriously. Need these.
