awww


I love this sweet picture of Win Butler and Regine Chassagne ,you can just feel the love between them. Supposedly they wrote a song together on their first date. Isn't that beautiful like two shooting stars crossing paths, to make sweet music together.
They are almost as cute as me and my B. ALMOST!!!!!!!!!!!

Fall trends that can F off






1. the military trend is the least offending. However.... why would you take a classic pea coat or black boot and put all that ugly on it? and that necklace is just stupid, bullets are stupid
2. i remember i went to chicago when i was 12 and wanted my mom to buy this long sporty looking DKNY maxi dress. I'm really glad she didn't. sure its comfy but it screams elaine from seinfield
3. have you ever wore a backpack with a dress? its a one way ticket to a wedgie
4. her legs look like gothic snasauges.... i can imagine someone wearing them on a date, the guy taking her home. trying to pull it off pre sex and dying from a heel to the forehead , when it finally gets pulled loose
5. sherling....... if its real you are a asshole, if its fake it looks like shit...... the end

Wilco - Monday




tuesday is my monday
this song always gets me rolling

Put the baby in the closet

Came across the sweetest blog Oh Happy Day
and found a posting about her sons room! They live in a one bedroom and turned a walk in closet into a little place for their baby. I showed it to Josh and now our new inside joke is about how I was a baby in my closet. His reaction to anything he finds terrible is always, "oh i would rather have a baby in the closet then that" wah wah
After further investigation I found there is actually a term for this " a walk in", used by mom's typically located in NYC, SF, etc
I love it! Some of my fondest childhood memories involve hanging out in tiny places.... My Mother used to sometimes make me a bed in the walk in closet off her room when I was a kid and I found it so exciting. It was a happy little cubby, just wide enough for me.





I am not serious, just think this is sooooo stinking cute
but I must admit i have slowly been cleaning out our big walk in closet bit by bit and moving things into other places

Mondays are my Sundays!


Not to talk all about myself...... but I have been really loving my hair lately. Ha. Do miss my bangs when I look at pics of Jane Birkin and Anna Karina (which is more often then i care to admit, its my porno!)

So we finally found our camera hooker upper thing. so all the food posts that have been on the back burner, no pun intended will be flowing soon!

today I am drying laundry in the sun

making mac and cheese, potato salad and veggie pasta salad

to the tune of my fathers old Beatles records

Its pretty awesome!

pela pela

The Dolce Vita Pela shoe
these girls look way cuter on then off and are so comfy i couldn't believe it. wore moni's brown ones around and ended up buying the black. they look so good with black tights and jeans. when i say they are comfy i mean it, i walked miles in them... love love love. no blisters! nothing!
i even like the pink but it might be a poor investment

I heart Vena Cava

I have been lusting after this brand ran by two stylish babes Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai since they did a small Khaki line for the Gap last year. I had the pleasure of scooping one of these up for $20



almost does not seem fair!

here are two pieces from their own line and starting september 1st they will have a cheaper line (under $198) bloomies!

The Selby

This home featured in The Selby. May be my dream realized. Everything is so clean and polished with gorgeous wood accents, books, and plants. It is what a strive for. Isn't the loft so cute and snuggly? I would love to take a nap up there with my B ( It would be a bummer when you have to go pee though). AND that doggy. whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
