ah man, i just fell in love

why is it that on the thriftiest of days you fall in love with something so beautiful your life can no longer be complete without it?

this baby by kelly moore has all i've ever longed for, style + function. with this bag i'd never question if i'd bring my camera on an outing or trip, i'd be free to snap away with ease + cuteness!

sooo cute...

sometimes i come across things and think to myself "damn, i should have come up with that"! here is a great example. these gifts are a real treat for the eyes, too nice to open.

it's complicated

i was unproductive today, and went to the movies at noon. i saw it's compicated and had to blog about the house. it's delightful, santa barbara style at it's best. i wonder if sometimes i really am an old woman, because a life of gardening, and having a bakery (that i don't bake in) sounds just right!

eyelashes + headbands

sometimes i see pretty things that make me want to have my wedding all over again. these headbands from ban.do are defiantly one of them.


i have a list of 30 things to do before i turn 30 next month; one is to wear false eyelashes. these pictures confirm the fact that i want to try this, if only for private make up session in my bathroom! these photos are gorgeous.

4 reasons to LOVE thick tights

No.1 you don't have to shave! I hate shaving on cold sunday mornings, by the time church is over my hairs have practically grown back anyways... why is the air conditioning on year round?
No.2 warm. a nice thick layer to protect and keep me cozy and snug.
No.3 style. i can't tell you how happy i am that they are back in a BIG way. not only are they adorable, they're fool prof they go with absolutely anything.
No.4 concealer. Since all women tend to be a little anemic, I know I'm not alone when mysterious bruises show up.
