Our friend Kara Firstenberger has a fantastic line of jewelry called Verse. Her earrings are gorgeous and her petite, delicate necklaces are incredibly chic. She started designing jewelry as a hobby in 2005 and gave a necklace to a friend who was working for the set design department for the show Will & Grace. The costume designer loved the necklace, asked if she would put together a private trunk show and wha la, her first sale was to Warner Brothers Studios, not too shabby. We think her necklaces are the perfect summer accessory and she’s offering our readers a 15% discount from now until Sunday at her Etsy store, just use the code TPS15.

    There’s no denying that Summer is around the corner, which means finding a way to go from the beach to happy hour without looking entirely like Spicoli (unless that’s your deal, which is totally fine with us, man.) Original Penguin‘s Spring/Summer 2012 line is bright and beach-y with the level of dapperness you expect from the iconic line — definitely the perfect balance between tasty waves and a cool buzz.

Maybe it’s the best way to reminisce about my time in Ireland, the late nights at the pub when impromptu music sessions would start and the air was filled with stories and laughter. There were drinks too, obviously, but the real intoxication was with life.

        Framed prints are always a good go-to when trying to mix up a photo wall, or simply trying to bring the fun into a room. These great prints from Jessica Sutton range from sweet (ily), and interesting (la luna), to funny (Rawr means I love you in dinosaur). There’s definitely something for everyone. Be sure to check out Jessica’s blog, Daucus Carota, for more great inspiration, and her print shop (we think the zodiac prints would make great gifts)!

          Party balloons have gone next-level as of late. DIYing these would be a fun and festive way to get in on the trend. Just pick up some round balloons, confetti, streamers and whatever else you can come up with and go to town! If you’re more the DIFM type, here are a couple of companies who are doing it right:

            Last week’s Met Gala brought out the A-listers in top form and Vogue compiled a list of the best beauty looks of the night. Although there were many lovely ladies that shined that evening, these gals were our faves…
