Daily (blog) ritual

Each and every day I have a ritual that I follow.... I must read these blogs in order or else my day just doesn't feel quite right. (I also couldn't resist adding this photo of Laduree macrons... because my ultimate dream would be eating these macrons w. a cup of Café crème each & every day!)

  • Apartment Therapy: This is the mega-blog for me. Seriously, I probably don't need to follow too many other design blogs because AT seems to know what is happening in the design world at all times! I also love the ohdeedoh and kitchn sections...and I'm always a fan of the house tours.
  • sfgirlbybay: This was the very first blog that I followed religiously...Victoria is incredibly talented and I've always found her photography (and her lovely SF apartment!) to be quite inspiring.
  • design*sponge: As KP beautifully stated earlier, I turn to this blog for DIY inspiration and all the lovely peeks into gorgeously decorated homes.
  • decor8: Holly Becker's blog is chock-full of design info....she presents a great weekly etsy finds update and I always love to read about what she's up to....currently she's in transition to a new life in Germany.... I can't wait to see how she'll decorate her new place. When she furnished her Hannover apt. I couldn't wait to see what the new great "find" was...... (she blogged about this in Haus Maus).
  • Black*Eiffel: I probably don't have to say more...the title just says it all.....I always find something to ooh & ahh about. Right now the Black*Eiffel is off to France so I'm eagerly waiting for lovely updates on all things French!
  • Oh Joy!: This blog is pleasing on many levels....I esp love all the posts on graphic design & fonts...
  • Poppytalk: Another great blog to find Etsy & other DIY inspirations
  • Chez Larsson: Benita Larsson is an organizational whiz...and her sense of style is right on: Clean, simple & just plain beautiful. She's incredibly handy and I've jotted down so many DIY projects that she's inspired me to do myself.... She's also Swedish and has worked for Ikea in the past...so that should be enough to confess my love for all things Chez Larsson!
  • A Cup of Jo: This blog is like my first morning cup of coffee.... energizing! Joanna Goddard is adorable. She really brings her blog to life by filling us in on her personal experiences and all the cool happenings in NYC!
  • English Muse: My newest (favorite)blog.... and boy am I glad I stumbled onto this one....We seem to share similar tastes and that's what I love about a blog...She also adores Sofia so she has to have good taste, right?

  2. By the way, I love the very idea of a macaron, a spot of coffee and a favorite blog. What better way to start any day.
