while doing my standard blog reading, I came across this cute blog called How About Orange, by graphic designer Jessica Jones. her most recent post was for really cute ways to dress up tea bags. I love it! too bad I don’t seem to have time for my own crafts these days, or I would try to make a few myself.

how cute!
love this fabric
I saw a couch covered in a gorgeous geometric fabric in the recent issue of Domino. designer Lulu de Kwiatkowski, of Lulu DK, creatively merges the artistry and craftsmanship of the old world and the youthful modernity of the new. her style is inspired by her travels in India, Morocco, Italy, and Peru. I love the geometric prints and bright colors.

I should be taking lessons from my kitten. I wish I could be asleep at my desk right now.
since my birthday is tomorrow….
here are a few things I’ve been lusting over for the past couple of months.
01. bedding from West Elm.
02. shoes by Keds.
03. kate spade mattie sunglasses in brown horn.
04. Domnino Magazine.
05. dappled wine glasses from Anthropologie.
06. baby Daffodils.
cool designer: Alyson Fox
through my browsing of Domino magazine, which has quickly become one of my favorites, I fell in love with an article about fashion illustration. as I was looking through the illustrations, I came across an artist named Alyson Fox, a graduate from Florida State Univeristy, who has very simple yet unique illustrations. her work is very lovely! {and, it’s always nice to see someone spelling their name with a Y.}

you are beautiful
you are beautiful is a series of installations and collaborative works in a wonderful marketing campaign. the simple yet powerful statement is meant for the viewer to interpret each project individually. the images are so simple, yet alluring. I think of how these would make me feel if I saw something like this on the side of a building. nothing but positive thoughts come to mind. maybe these people are thinking in the right direction by putting a little more beauty on the streets. catching us in the middle of the busy daily grind, and making us stop for a moment to think that life really is beautiful. {all images from you are beautiful}

fireworks in bed
literally. fireworks can be so romantic and yet so intriguing at the same time. saturday night, we lay in bed and watched the fireworks display that was down on bayshore. it was such an interesting experience to watch the fireworks from our own home. it was like a personal show. a front seat viewing! and I was with the most amazing person ever. :)
