Happy Friday to you! I am so ready for the weekend! Mostly because I have lots of plans to look forward to: a sushi and movie date, a visit from a good friend and an evening out with a crowd of fun people! I am secretly wishing the workday could go a little faster. So [...]
I almost feel like I need to tack a little warning to the front of this post, something like “Warning: this post contains seriously gorgeous photos and you will want to buy them all!”…so consider yourself warned! I’ve been hooked on collage walls for ages now. They’re such great ways to add energy to your [...]
We’re headed downtown today, meeting up with friends at the Taste of Chicago and probably stopping by the huge H&M on Michigan (this girl needs summer clothes!). So I thought I’d share my newest favorite flickr photostream in case you’re stuck inside today. I accidentally found dragontrees‘s flickr stream the other night and it’s one [...]
I’ve been seeing a bunch of gorgeous portraits lately. I made a mini collection of lovely, gentle shots that I adore and I hope you’ll love them too! Just looking at them makes me feel like taking a wonderful trip and lounging in the sun. Please click the photos for their credits!
I just wanted to pop in quickly to say, “Hi! I hope you’re having a happy weekend!” I’m getting lots done today and feeling extra inspired about a project I’m planning for the fall! So excited! And I wanted to send a little inspiration your way from some of my recent flickr favs… Lovely movements: pretty [...]
I hope you’re having a lovely Sunday! Mine has been wonderfully rainy and full new ideas. I’m sure I’ll be sharing some new projects with you this week, but tonight I wanted to show you some of the gorgeous art my beautiful friend Lauren makes. Lauren does it all, portraits, fine art, weddings, photojournalism and each shot [...]
Sometimes you come across a blog that feels like a window into a beautiful movie or painting or dream or something. That’s just how I felt went I clicked on This Is Naive (I think I saw the link in a tweet from Fieldguided). Tommy is the girl behind this lovely blog and her posts are [...]
A few weeks ago I came across the prettiest Flickr stream. Shokoofeh captures life and colors so beautifully! And I’m so excited to share her lovely photos and a little interview with you! Q. Could you tell us a little about yourself? Okay. this is one of the hardest questions I always worry about! I am that kind [...]
I saw the genius photography project PhotoBooth in ReadyMade an issue or two ago and thought it was so cute. So I was super excited to see they paired up with the beautiful calligraphy of Paperfinger! Cutest engagement picture, ever! Paperfinger has all kinds of adorable photo props. I love the faux cat’s eye glasses!
Lots to do today! Starting with washing a certain pup. All the snow is melting and we have a ton of muddy pawprints and paws running around! Laundry to do and the kitchen to clean. (I LOVE this kitchen!)
I write about things I like: knitting, fashion, books, and other cozy, lovely things. Thanks for visiting!
