It's almost here!!
2012 we are ready for you! Well, almost…I need to get a few last things done before Saturday night, but I’m on it and plan to make the most of these last few days!
My best friend from NYC, Lin, is in route as I type to bring in the new year with me… Copenhagen style. Mr. Blond and I are hosting a NYE seated dinner for 25 at our house in honor of ‘12. The tradition here is...

Happy Christmas!
This is my first Christmas without my family and friends in Texas (hurts my heart a bit), but this year I get to celebrate Yuletide with my wonderful Danish family. Sending you all lots of love back home…and around the world! Happy Christmas!

All I want for Christmas...
I’ve been slacking a bit on posts lately, but all for a good reason. I’ve been home in the States for the holidays, so traveling, family, friends and spirits have delightfully been occupying my time. My posts will probably be sparse from now until the new year, but I have some fun things planned for 2012! For now, I’ve decided to list a few wishes for Santa from my favorite Esty...

Back to school
While home in Texas for the holidays, I was invited to mentor a few undergrad fashion students at Incarnate Word University in San Antonio, TX in preparation for their senior collections they will be presenting in April.

Mr. Larkin Six Pennies Collection...
Ever since I designed the Elsa from my debut Spring 2009 Collection, I have been asked by quite a few conscious brides-to-be to design their wedding dress.

Though since I have been on leave the last year raising my little girl, I have had...
