Coachella Looks

Oh, just some old friends borrowing my clothes.  Kate and Whitney, I expect those things back very soon.

P.S. You know I love festival season.

Hello, Friday

Friday, what took you so long!  Any good plans this weekend?  I'm heading to the Yankees game tonight and some sort of adventure on Saturday that I haven't quite decided on yet.  Bodies exhibit?  Farmers market?  It will be a last minute decision!  And, with that being said, I leave you with a tiny list of links that have kept me smiling this week:

...and just when I thought Pendleton was out of my league.

Wins the prize for the prettiest apartment!

Moroccan inspiration doesn't get much better than this.

Mark your calendars: Eugenia Kim for Target starts this Sunday!

Pretty, whacky plates.

On my hair-do to-do list.

Steven Alan, I can't get enough of you.

Enjoy! xo

Bimba y Lola!

Just a couple of delightfully, pretty favorite finds from Bimba y Lola.  I couldn't resist the straw, rope, and random metallic bow! :)

Mr. Selby, I'm Ready for My Close-up

I'm dying--please look at Refinery 29's clever guide to getting Todd Selby to pay a tiny visit to your crib.  I love that one of the criteria is "do you have a phobia of clutter?"  Thankfully, I do not.

Clog Crush

Over a year ago, I snatched up a pair of tapestry-like Miu Miu clogs for a ridiculously cheap price that I can't even say out loud on the internet.  The down side of that purchase is that I forced myself to think that I could fit in a pair of shoes that seem to be a half size too small.  Since I can't bear the thought of bloody, blistered feet, I decided to search for a pair of clogs that I can sport regularly and comfortably this spring.  I had the bottom pair in mind after seeing them here and here, but when visiting the Swedish Hasbeens site, the top booties instantly won me over...and over.

Mondays Matter

Well, back to Monday!  In case you didn't know, Yankees home-opener is tomorrow.  Taxes are due on Thursday.  And, yes, it's National Library Week.  Go nuts.

Things to tackle this week:
- Balance my checkbook.  I may be the only person keeping the personal check business alive.
- Start/catch up on The Pacific.  I keep hearing RAVE reviews and feel like I'm missing out.
- Finish Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.  I'm an embarrassment to all HP fans out there because this was on my last to-do list.

What's on your to-do list this week?  xo

Proenza, My Darling

Every girl has their favorite thing to shop for...and it's quite clear because her wardrobe is mostly compiled of those very specific things.  Mine are dresses--really pretty dresses have a special place in my heart.  Man, I could shop every single day for a dress if I could.  On the opposite end of the spectrum, I never make time to buy myself purses.  My normal pattern of behavior is "buy one and wear it for the year".  So, when I finally find a bag I can add to my very "edited" collection, I welcome it with open arms.

Friends, meet Proenza Schouler PS1-D-2 Large Bag.  She's sleek, yet worn in.  She's large and in charge.  She's bright and cheery, but knows how to get down to business.  Oh tax refund, where art thou?

Crystals and Planets

Kate totally nailed it with this find.  As a kid, I geeked out over rocks, minerals, planets, Sea Monkeys, worms...you name it.  I thought they were so fantastic.  I'm pretty sure at one point, I wanted to be a mineralogist because I wanted to be surrounded by pretty rocks--then I wanted to be an astronaut because I liked the idea of flying in space.  These 1970s dictionary pages just bring me back to the good 'ol days--you know, the early 90s.  Was it just me or were you into that stuff too as a kid?

P.S. I really do love rocks.

via for me, for you
