Respekt

Listen to Regina. She rules.

Especially loving the lyric: "I've got a perfect body, but sometimes I forget."

girl crush

I have an insane girl crush on Zooey Deschanel. Her music, her bangs, her movies, her style, I love it all. I want to be her friend. She put together the sweetest list of 31 things to do in the summer for Self Magazine in honor of her new movie 500 days of summer. I can't wait to see the movie. It was all sold out in SF on opening day! Can't wait until it arrives in Ohio one month later!

sharing brain waves

I logged in to post this only to see we have the same brain. Only mine says fuck more often. image also via imgfave.

Do what you do.

We are painfully behind on posts around here. Lou has the valid excuse of being on vacation. I do not.

But perhaps this Bob Dylan quote will be inspiring enough to make it up to you.
Via my new fav, imgfav.

PPS...

You should probably pack this Eugenia Kim cloche to keep the sun off that pretty face.



Oh, and the ocean's cold, but maybe throw in this Anthropologie suit just in case.

Bon Voyage!!

Lou, have a great trip and hurry back! I've been saving this superfun artwork by Jeff Canham for your send-off.

xoxo,
Rae

PS Track 7 is also in your honor.

fizzy bubbles

These Champagne Earrings are lacy and pretty, named after my beloved bubbly, and remind me of my broken $8 street earrings from my first trip to NYC.

Happiness

Yesterday I came across the Happiness Project, one woman's challenge to lead a happier life. She has 12 commandments for herself and I think my favorite is number 12:

There is only love.
"This commandment was inspired by a friend who took a job where she knew she’d have a difficult boss. From the beginning, she told herself, “There is only love.” She doesn’t allow herself to criticize her boss, even in her own mind, and won’t listen to anyone else’s criticism. She says it’s tough to do, but it has made her job far easier."

My mother taught me this growing up and I think lately I have forgotten what a powerful solution it is. Now I can't wait to try out The Happiness Toolbox!

flippity flaptastic

I want to cover an entire wall with Flapperdoodle drawings. They are so 1920's FABULOUS!

pretty dreamy

I am in love with Belladonna and the Wolf's Flickr Photostream. I adore the dreamy colors and scenes and cute photo titles.

"Bewitched Bothered and Bewildered"
