I think it’s time to retire that double stick tape and those stencils and shaped scissors.

Just checked out this great new site, Scrapblog and “Wow!” it makes my scrapbooks look ancient.

The best feature by far are the QuickMixes. Just upload photos and drag and drop into one of their many templates. I love the fact that you can create a 20 page scrapbook in under 30 minutes. I can’t even begin to imagine the hours I spent on my “old-fashioned” albums.  A great resource and I get to clear out some extra space in the office.

The service is free of charge and you can upload the scrapblog to your blog or send online.  Printing is a nominal fee.

They also sell cards and calendars.

Love, love, love it!

More of Me Maternity certainly makes the frumpiest of us prego mamas, look absolutely chic and stylish.

Jessica Boulanger’s sophisticated and amazingly comfortable maternity dresses are pieces I’d wear any given day, baby  or not.

Although the price may seem a bit steep for a dress only worn for a few months, remember it is important for us to indulge every so often. Especially when we are pregnant.   wink, wink.

Emilio Pucci’s style is Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds—real diamonds.

Although each one is unique, you can’t mistake a Pucci print. Since the late-1940s, when Italian skier and socialite Marchese Emilio Pucci casually tried his hand at design, the brand has been synonymous with bold, brightly colored graphic patterns with a kaleidoscopic, slightly psychedelic feel. Pucci prints usually appear on clingy, stretchy fabrics, and are widely applied in every category—evening wear, ready-to-wear, swimwear, accessories, shoes and home décor; they have even been featured in the logo of the Apollo 15 space mission and the interior of a Ford Lincoln Continental.

“Prince of Prints” and CFDA-award winner Emilio Pucci designed the line himself until his death in 1992. His daughter, Laudomia Pucci, then took the reigns, before passing them along to a string of young designers including, in 2000, Julio Espada; critics felt Espada over-embellished the cuts, detracting from the joyful signature patterns. In 2003, Christian LaCroix was brought on as Artistic Direcor—a good match considering his mastery of color and affection for sixties and seventies styling. Currently Matthew Williamson is head of inspiration, but his three year contact is soon to expire.  Peter Dundas is set to take Williamson’s place. Laudomia Pucci continues to serve as Image Director.

Love Janis Savitt’s arm candy.

Her beautiful 18-karat yellow gold-plated brass bracelet is simple yet noteworthy.

Savitt was born and raised in New York City. The daughter of an artist father and a fashion savvy mother, she spent her childhood immersed in fine arts, culture, and following the latest fashion trends. While still in high school, Janis originally fabricated pieces for Van Cleef and Arpels, Cartier, Henri Bendel, and Bloomingdales. Along with her sister Michelle, Janis built the renowned M&J Savitt, assuming her position as jewelry designer of the company.

Her skill and attention to detail are impressive. $400 from Neimen.

The 39-year-old Australian mother of three young boys, looks incredible in the Cleopatra inspired John Galliano gown (above).

Oscar award winner (for The Aviator in 2004), Blanchett stars opposite Brad Pitt in the recently released The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

The film is rumored to have cost $175 million due to the expensive special effect that centers around a man who lives his live in reverse - born old and becomes younger with each year.

This tragic love story is the metaphor of a life lived backwards and is a beautiful tale of love, loss, and death.

“If you age with somebody, you go through so many roles—you’re lovers, friends, enemies, colleagues, strangers; you’re brother and sister,” Blanchett observes.

“That’s what intimacy is, if you’re with your soul mate. Marriage is a risk; I think it’s a great and glorious risk, as long as you embark on the adventure in the same spirit.”

Blanchett has been married for 11 years to Andrew Upton, an Australian playwright, screenwriter, and director.

Intelligent and well mannered, Blanchett is the consummate professional. Her Benjamin Button director, Fincher praises Blanchett as “so smart, capable, facile, thoughtful, beautiful, and emotionally present.”
