I just fell desperately in love with this sweater from Kate Spade.

Will You Be My Bridesmaid?

This is probably one of the cutest ways I have come across to ask your friends if they will share your Big Day with you. I found it on Once Wed, and it is going into my idea file for my own wedding someday...You can get the full How-To here!

By the way, if any of my close girlfriends are reading this, forget you saw it in 3-10 years when it's actually time for me to settle down!

Studio On Fire

I glean inspiration regularly from a letterpress blog I love called Beast Pieces, from Studio On Fire based out of Minneapolis. They always post the most fantastic designs, their best projects on the blog and they are unbelievable. You really have to see for yourself, here. I loved this stationary system for a Bahamian destination wedding that they created. It is one of the more cohesive statement invitation sets I've seen in a while.

On a completely unrelated note, I can not stop listening to "Alejandro" by Lady Gaga. I have probably had it on repeat for about 2 hours now.

Cactus Chic

Today Once Wed featured a cactus-inspired vintage wedding that I immediately fell in love with. The bride's dress had a simple silhouette, but with the addition of a golden patterned overlay and trim plus a pair of simple Steve Madden sandals and it's a divine kind of Southwestern Chic. I love the idea of using cactus plants or succulents as centerpieces and it seems to be increasing in trendiness lately. Take a look at Once Wed for the full-set of photos!

Who saw these gorgeous photos this morning on Once Wed? The event stylist featured here, Elizabeth Demos, is a genius. Every photo in the series is perfection, but these are some of my favorites. Enjoy!

Not related to the event featured on Once Wed above, here are some other fabulous photos from Elizabeth's website that I thought were noteworthy. This aviation-inspired wedding is to die for.

Fisherman Father's Day

I love this intimate setting for a Father's Day Dinner from Kara's Party Ideas. The place settings are fabulous, and the attention to detail is inspiring. It sets the perfect rustic tone. There's something about the lush fabrics, outdoor setting, and champagne that feels like this would be a good Father's Day Dinner for you to send the kid's to a babysitter. Enjoy!

A Super Father's Day Idea

Jordan Ferney, my vote for most creative woman on the internet (heavy statement, I know) does it again with this post on Alphamom. A Superhero themed Father's Day Kit. How cute is that? Equipped with Hero Juice, Energy Chips, and a Secret Identity Bar plus lots more, this homemade gift would be perfect for that Super Dad of yours. The best part? Prinatbles are free! Just run them through your printer on adhesive label paper, and you are on your way.

Edible Columbus

Have you picked up the newest issue of Edible Columbus yet? You can get them at North Market, Jeni's and a ton of other local Columbus spots. It is full of delicious recipes, great stories, and of course information about local food. Aren't those raspberries on the cover just gorgeous?

The Graduate

Okay, I know this blog has not been getting the attention it needs lately, but that's because I've been busy graduating! That's me in the glasses. If I wasn't holding Dasani, I would say this picture looks like it's from 1972. 
Can you believe how many people there are in this photo? Over 8,000 graduated on Sunday from The Ohio State University. I am officially back in business, so stop back at Jenna Sais Quois for new content soon!

Custom Calligraphy Stamp

In the world of e-mailing and texting, a handwritten letter definitely seems delightfully out of place and appreciated. Bloggers have been featuring Primele's etsy shop lately because of her fantastic return address stamps featuring custom calligraphy. Priced at only 40 dollars, this would amazing to have for yourself. It would also be a fantastic wedding or anniversary gift for a couple that is much too cool for return address labels. Enjoy!
