light up

I’m totally digging this light-up black-ocean globe: although I’d paint the base bright pink. Really, how hot would that be? Replogle Orion 12-inch Diam. Tabletop Globe, $84.99

T-bird Teal

speaking of cameras, I love this vintage seatbelt camera strap. I’ll take one in blue, please.

rad!

I’m kind of obsessed with this print that I put in etsy scavenger today over at AT:SF rad pig from wonting nyc and just an FYI – starting now I’m officially bringing rad back. Feel free to help.

patterns and fauna

Catherine Ledner’s animal portraits are making the blog rounds these days, but they’re just too pretty not to share. The best part? They’re actually priced within reach (notice I didn’t say cheap, but with a little saving . . .) Can’t choose just one? Pick up Catherine’s book for the whole collection.

be still my heart

oh my, Rob Ryan is opening a shop. Now if the damn dollar would just get a little stronger maybe I could actually afford to go to London. Until then I’ll keep lusting after his gorgeous work through the computer screen, and planning my next tile purchase.

Vintage Rehab

There’s an etsy store devoted entirely to vintage lockets. Swoon. This one is killing me. Do you see that “E”? It’s like it was meant for me. Now I just have to come up with approximately $200. Hmmm. I also think this one is pretty lovely, although I would put it on a more delicate [...]

sandals

Last night I realized that I haven’t owned a pair of sandals that weren’t flip-flops in, well, years. I wear flips flops all the time, but since I’m trying to dress slightly more like an adult these days, I think it’s time to fill the sandal hole in my shoe collection. I really like this [...]

cold beverage jar

I’ve always loved big jars like this full of lemonade (or rum punch.) Nothing really says summer the same way. Now made from recycled glass and available here for $40, I think I have to add one to my wish list. ps. there’s a much cheaper, although not quite as lovely, version at Target.

changes

Lately I’ve been wanting to paint my living room pale blue. Here are a few of rooms that have been inspiring me. Kim’s (of Four Beds Two Baths) kitchen Courtney from Style Court‘s guest bedroom flickr user miss moon‘s bedroom  

A note on couches

One of my favorite things to do is fantasize about buying a new couch. This purchase is a long ways off – I’m back in school now, remember? – but a girl can still dream. Our current couch was a craiglist find several years ago, and while it’s not at all ugly it’s not exactly [...]
