Nate Day BlogParty

Nate Berkus needs no introduction. His creative pursuits have enjoyed exponential popularity through the Oprah effect. Rightly so, his laidback luxe style is attainable yet unexpected and speaks to most. Images below are some of my favorites from his portfolio.

The storied personal life of Nate Berkus is just as well documented. When he experienced loss, the world cried and mourned with him. When I learned about his relationship with Brian Atwood, I was giddy with excitement since he is one of my favorite shoe designers. The images from Elle Decor below are from their Milan apartment.

Blog Hiatus

As some of you know may have noticed, I dropped off the face of the earth since my Snug Life rapidly took over me the past couple of months. As much as I can multitask, I couldn't bring myself to write even if there were many exciting happenings and inspirational things to write about. It was one of the few times where I felt the soulful parts of my mind and body were running on empty. Stressed out of my wits, I couldn't relax, sleep, and was snappy. So after a hectic year that went full steam last April and May, I came home to Cebu for a much needed break and surrounded myself with the comforts of home  and the love and pampering of family and best friends. As you can see from the images below, it has been home sweet home.....

Sineguelas or Spanish Plum

I will be finishing up my Easter Chronicles story and doing an ode to Social Media before blogging about my Cebu escapades. Thank you friends for hanging out with me here on Frou La La and for all the wonderful convos on Twitter :-)
