prairie ruffle dress.



I've never worn dresses, but these cotton ruffles and flutter sleeves in ecru are making me think it's time to turn a page.  I'll post this in my be more feminine at 30 folder.

mom jeans, redefined.


These look like the perfect jeans to me.  The name says it all.

to love: felted balls







I know there are better felted ball deals available, but these colors!  Now at Purl Soho.

And my favorite of felted ball projects:

seen: 1. felt ball necklace (for the non-DIYers)


2. Felt ball trivets (especially because I love the word trivet)
3. Felt ball garland (here and here)

[seen: my version in Finn's bedroom]

ban.do

I've spent months of my life trying to branch out from my go-to short bob haircut, but it just doesn't work for me.  To my credit, I've worn my hair wavy rather than straight since October (!), but I think my variety will come with accessories.  Right now, I'm loving the idea of these  ban.do clips:


And if you're looking for sparkle too, but hoping to find it in other places, maybe you'll love these:

I love: this Winter outfit





It celebrates Winter. From the pullover to the bangles.

wishing I (we) had a Kanken to love


Kanken: The functional, affordable, Swedish (English?) backpack that's existed for over 30 years.  Available in 23 pretty great colors!

browsing motocross jackets

seen: women's motocross jacket, $69.50 now $47.99!

Kudos to Canvas.  This is one of my favorite jackets of the season.  With great ratings to boot.  
[Which would go perfectly with this wishlist sweater in black violet.]

School's in session, it's cooling down and creativity is brewing.  I'm inspired by September.  (Even if we're taking some sick days already.)

monday report:



It's a sleepy Monday morning at our house.  We did a to-and-back trip to Sacramento yesterday ( 2.5 hours each way) to see our new little niece/cousin, Joy.  We had a great visit but are feeling painfully tired from pulling up to our house at midnight.  Nothing some cheerful link inspiration cannot fix.  


☛ Last day to put your name in for the K. Grace giveaway.  (I wore my Lake Dress over the weekend and felt fancy.)  And don't miss the 20% off discount code.  Hooray for green fashion.  

☛Another Purl Bee project: the cheerful quilted playmat is so pretty.  But I especially love the room: grey wood floors, those grey dots and quilts stacked on top of an especially tall armoire.  


☛ This is a sweet nursery.  (Sweet Baby James-- love that song.)  The x's quilt, Binth poster and Chad Wys art are my favorite parts.  


☛ More balloon invite love (seen on Hip Hip Hooray blog).  


☛ Stephanie's tart cherry crumb cake sounds so amazing right now.  I tried this recipe over the weekend and think this may happen tonight.  Doesn't it look like a big bite of summer?


☛ While we're on food, I still need to make my way to Paulette Macarons in San Francisco.


☛ I really loved reading these tips over the weekend!  Do you have the book?  [Seen here.]

p.s.  I've been listening to The Cranberries greatest hits all weekend.  Do you remember how amazing they are?  And I finished the Hunger Games.  Loved that book and now need to find another equally exciting.  Any favorites?  


Hope your weekend was restful.
