Our trend this week is based around the color purple and the feeling that it gives you. One of my favorite colors is lilac, I love the softness and lightness it gives off, so when this trend launched I was more than happy to create a vignette of my favorite purple items online right now.

Recipe: An Easter Favorite From The UK
When I was young and Easter was approaching, I always looked forward to these little treats that we used to make and give to our friends and family.

These simple, quick, and easy treats are fun and cheerful to make and will take up no time at all – all you need is shredded wheat, chocolate to melt, and mini eggs!

Style File: Spell And The Gypsy Collective
The girls behind the Spell and the Gypsy Collective line are cool, creative, and show a style that’s so fitting to their eclectic designs that you can’t help but be intrigued by the fringe, the patterns, and the layers and layers of accessories.

When I think about the words “light as a feather” I think of that feeling you get when you are free of worries, pain or sadness and are in a moment of complete and utter bliss – nothing is weighing you down.
