Leigh Poindexter recently left her life as a couture apron designer behind to pursue a career in… well, anything she wants, really. Nanny? Flight attendant? Shark hunter? In the meantime, she’s producing some mighty cute cupcake wares out of her brand-new Etsy shop Very Happy Everything.
Take this hand-illustrated charm necklace, for instance. It reminds me of the plastic charm necklaces I collected as a kid, only much cuter. For only $35 you can remember the good times- Rainbow Bright, roller skates, and dreams of cupcakes for dinner.
I also adore this sun-shiney yellow cupcake on a super-duper long beaded necklace. If Louise Brooks were alive today, I like to think these yellow “pearls” would be a favorite of hers.
There are loads of other sweet charms in the shop- including brooches on vintage horse ribbons and wee little pints of Guinness. Leigh also loves custom orders, I put in a request for a lady shark already.
Their faces are everywhere. In the papers, on television, billboards, bumper stickers and buttons.

“At Mrs. Beasley’s we’re bi-partisan when it comes to political candidates,” says Ken Harris the company’s CEO. “But, we are partial to creating cupcakes and cookies and other baked goods that look and taste fantastic. These treats are fit for a President!”
This year, Mrs. Beasley’s is celebrating 30 years as baker to the stars and after three decades in the business the renowned bakery is still delivering gourmet gift baskets to the biggest names in Hollywood including Academy Award winners – Tom Hanks, Reese Witherspoon and Hillary Swank. They have customized baskets for all the major networks and studios, sent “Muffin Tops” from the producers of Seinfeld, Colossal cupcakes to the cast of Entourage and delivered “post incarceration” sweets to Paris Hilton.
Mrs. Beasley’s gourmet bakery and renowned catalog of freshly-baked deserts have a rich and storied history that dates back to 1978 when two sisters began providing their Beverly Hills neighbors with unique hand-made treats and gift baskets. Within months their orders had nearly doubled and they became the talk of the town and an entertainment industry favorite. The Hollywood connection quickly spread and the demand for Mrs. Beasley’s products soon grew with requests pouring in from far beyond Los Angeles.
Mrs. Beasley’s decadent treats are available anywhere and anytime – by phone 1-800-710-7742, online at www.mrsbeasleys.com and at the company’s eight retail locations in: Beverly Hills, Encino, downtown Los Angeles, Brentwood, Pasadena, Costa Mesa and at South Coast Plaza.

Don’t you just love the new design? It looks amazing! I am super excited to be blogging again, while we were away, I got to scout out some awesome new items! Check out this Cupcake Cuff! In Hope is an amazing seamstress and this cuff is only $10.00.
“I just felt like making some cuffs this week because my arm have felt naked. This one is made out of bright red vinyl with a stitched on vinyl cupcake. I also sewed industrial style pink Velcro to keep this bracelet closed. It is about 8 inches long and about 2 inches in the middle most wide part. The inside of this cuff is a light pink felt so you wont get a sweaty wrist. This cuff would fit most girls.”
Her banner even has cupcakes, how cool is that!
