who: Stacy Longenecker, Founder/Owner of LEIF
why stacy rocks: The second I laid my eyes on her colorful new shop, I knew I liked this girl. These bright utensils first drew me in!
in her closet: I've been into marbleized prints for a little while now {the more colorful the better}, but it's so hard to find them! So, when I found this organza Thread Social dress at a Buffalo Exchange for $40, it was pretty much the best day ever.
in her casa: The giant pinwheel painting in my living room is so "me"—probably because I made it. I would never in a million years refer to myself as a painter or artist {and sometimes I wonder if it's weird to hang my own painting in my apartment} but it's definitely a good way to obtain the exact look you have in your head. It's so big and colorful, and it's the first thing you see when you walk in the door.
Thanks Stacy!

love love all the bright colors!
Oh that store is lovely!
what a cheery post–love the colors!
So pretty. I love closet and casa posts.
That is a great way to live with all that color! Good job! Inspiring. I haven’t put up my own art either, but I think most artists actually do. I think it is probably healthy to grow with it and look at it, perceive it. Maybe I will do that soon!!! xo
*I mean I had reservations about putting up my art like you.
Beautiful colors, inspire happiness all the time!!!
I nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award! Read about it here: http://stylemesimple.blogspot.com/2011/09/versatile-blogger.html
Just took a quick peek at her shop – so flipping cute! I love those knives.
That couch…! I’m in the market for a new one, and I had been thinking grey but this post is really changing my mind. Too cute!
Feeling very inspired by the painting… reminds of Washington DC’s Color School. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Color_School
I love the pinwheel painting you made! I would definitely say you are an artist 🙂
I love these colorful Feminine dresses just perfect for summer!
