iPromise.

Lately, I've been getting a lot of emails lately asking how I take my pictures.

The emails skeptically ask how I take my pictures I take on my iPhone,

and I pathetically try to explain all of the two tips I know.

This afternoon, I downloaded these short clips off Tyler's phone, 

and realized I forgot one of my cardinal photography tips:

climbing fences.

A Day On The Town

Today was a busy-but-fun day for me...

I'm taking you with me on my Thursday- I hope you're up for it!

Thursday mornings are market days in Oxford.

 I hustled out to meet some friends there- and woah, it was heaven.

It had everything from doughnuts to decanters....

and smoked bacon to silver serving spoons.

From one of the antique stalls,

I bought this marble, table-lighter. 

{I'm not a smoker, but what the heck. It's cool.}

Then I headed down to London 

to take my maiden voyage through the

Victoria & Albert Museum.

There is a gorgeous exhibit on the Ballet Russe currently being held

that focuses on composer, Daihgilev & the golden age of Russian Ballet.

We walked and gawked at the amazing pieces for two hours,

until at last we headed to the courtyard in search of some coffee and sunshine.

Eventually, the sun sat down over the "Smoke..."

and left us with this backdrop in the courtyard.

As my friend, Helena, has mentioned- 

the gift store at the V&A is fabulous!

I definitely didn't leave empty-handed.

Souvenir Stylings: Munich, Germany

Hello friends! 

It's Beth from Hello, Splendor, 

Aspiring Kennedy's faithful friend 

and 

Interior Designer.

Mr. & Mrs. Aspiring Kennedy 

recently travelled to Munich, Germany 

and it's my task to help design 

a great vacation home for this jet-setting couple!

Aspiring Kennedy is more

of a classic lady,

but, Munich is going through a major

modern design moment. 

Think industrial chic...

modern lines...

Lots of light...

But, now for the color...

Should Aspiring Kennedy go bold with red??

Or, should she go safe and serene with white??

Do Tell!

Souvenir Stylings: Oslo, Norway

Hello, Aspiring Kennedy readers!

Beth from Hello, Splendor here... 

I'm Aspiring Kennedy's interior designer.

Since moving to Oxford, 

Aspiring Kennedy and Mr. Aspiring Kennedy 

have been jet setting across the globe. 

The first stop in their trek 

was Oslo, Norway, 

where they visited the famed Ice Hotel...

I got to work on brainstorming... 

what would Mr. & Mrs. Aspiring Kennedy's 

vacation home in Oslo, Norway

look like?

How could I give them part of the Ice Hotel ??

And how can I translate that look 

into an amazing interior 

so they can relive the moments 

of their amazing vacation together?

A structure made of ice 

is a pretty big architectural feat to live up to.

I mean, it's really pretty incredible. 

So, as my thoughts of happiness 

continue to reign over jealously... 

It finally came to me...

Enjoy your vacation home, Lauren & Tyler!

Keep checking back... 

I'll be chronicling their travels with a post each week. 

I've got to keep up with this jet-setting duo!
