squint your eyes

My favorite, Proenza Schouler Spring 2010. I love how bold and spastic these looks are. We all have moods just like this once in a while.

This is an amazing set from the vinyl flooring company Bolon campaign shoot. This is the kind of thing I would love to work on after I graduate. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

burst of sunshine

It has not stopped raining in Atlanta. I would love to have these happy Marimekko umbrellas following me around to brighten these gloomy days.

heart quote

Beautiful graffiti work from French artist REMED. I love how bold and unique they are in comparison to other street art.

Its a bird. Its a plane.

That is one insane looking chandelier, but if it definitely will lift your spirits.

boys are mean to girls they like -1996

This guys blog reminds me way too much of every boy I ever kissed, every party I ever went to, every day I ever had as a teenager/young adult. I just relived those days. It was a nice treat.

Just though this was really pretty.

Here are some photos from the etsy shop Alicia Bock. Enjoy.

Wouldn't you love to wrap these memories around you? Philippe Roucou poloroid scarves.

I am all about the new spreads of Jessica Stam in Fashion mag this month. They are beyond fashion.

Peek a boo

I have always wanted to dedicate a blog to view finders and how much they look like human faces. I just see so much expression and personality in each one. Don't you think?

I know you are but what am i

I love a good Chuck Close inspired art piece every once in a while. Eric Daigh, push pin portraits.

Introducing Martha Stewart Clean

Our natural, fragrance-free cleaning products will keep your whole home sparkling.

If that is what Martha says, i believe her. She is my hero! And the packaging ain't too shabby. Now i just have to try them and see how they work. I am sure they are perfection, just like my Martha. :)

a single moment of bliss, kinda

I was working today and NEEDED break, so I picked up and went to go see Tom Ford's "A Single Man." WOW! It was breathtaking. Go on! Leave now and go watch it! You will be very pleased. And a very easy on the eyes model/actor has a small cameo in it. He was sooo dreamy I was giddy just sitting in the theatre.

Isn't he just simply divine?

birds do it.

Mambo Italiano

These are all examples of work from an incredible design shop in Italy. Everything is simple and innovative at the same time. Artiva Design. You are my hero!

What is your reality?

"By layering an assortment of colored paper-bits, collage artist Virginia Echeverria creates an abstract sense of reality through the duality created by both the real, physical photographs and the fabricated pieces of scrap. Together, these aspects add an incremental amount of depth, intrigue and mystery, while still retaining a certain level of elegance."

My heart just fluttered when I saw these collages.

Satisfeito

Some things just coincide at the best moment. I happen to find these images of couples on E tell tales while listening to Marisa Monte's Satisfeito. It was absolute perfection. :) I wish the same little piece of perfection to you today.

Everyone plans something. Right?

I can't even tell you how often people ask me what kinda of calendars or planners to use. I am an aficionado of these things and just stumbled upon one that struck my fancy. Here is the Idealist 2010 compact planner by whoMi. You may also like it (and its quite inexpensive :).

Dream dress

I may have just fallen in love with this 3.1 Phillip Lim dress. Its lace and sexy and proper and perfect! Mom I hope you are reading this. (wink wink)

wish list

I am always looking for a new pair of headphones. These Aiaiai headphones are incredibly sleek and I wouldn't mind trading mine for them. Supposedly they are comfortable too, who knows.

As if I need another reminder.

Just downloaded this terrific screensaver. OK ok, its not that exciting, but its old school and that is why I like it. Hope you enjoy.

Here is a gift.

Just stumbled across a very awesome studio in Minneapolis, Florafauna I couldn't find a poster I didn't like! Go check out the friends section. There are some really great links to creatives. My dream is to one day work somewhere that gives the vibe this place does.

braid from heaven

Yvonne Hung is the designer behind The Harbinger Company. She makes these amazing jewelry pieces and I am in love with them all right now. Too bad I have to save every penny right now to get my projects photographed for my final portfolio. :(
