Bonjour, Weeeeekend!

It's absolutely brilliant outside, and I just found out I get to leave work at noon! Plus, I'm meeting Caroline for lunch at The Counter....going for a run...maybe checking out the Anthropologie sale section...basking like a cat in the sunshine...starting a new crafty project...probably heading to Jazz in the Garden...and getting ready for a glorious Memorial Day weekend. BONUS: I get to work from home on Tuesday!!

Go outside and get you some of this...

...a sweet southern breeze 

... a hydrangea buzz

... a long and lazy brunch

...an afternoon delight

...and a little present for you from me

Come run with me, the best is yet to be...

Clawfoots (feet?) and Cats.

Crazy busy weekend. Lots to tell, but in the meantime, here's a glimpse of my maja's new and improved tiny bathroom and adorable new cat. xxx

Meow.

Yes to the Yes

Feeling le tired. Probably because I got up to watch the creepy awesome solar (lunar?) eclipse. Go me! 

Wanting some blue, grey, tan, white, gold, shimmery lovin. Here is some to keep your ticker ticking. Your motor running. Your brain twitching. Ok bye.

Grey sky eyes.

Closet doors as headboard = genius love

Obvi the fairest of them all.



Sigh, wallpaper.

Tub heaven.

Sigh, sky light.

Sparkle tile...all the rage.

Nook + cranny.

Want to touch the silkiness...



...and we're done.
au revoir

I'm Crazy For Feelin' So Blue...

Today I'm saluting one of my favorite colors of the rainbow...blue. From the sky to the ocean, this au natural baby can't be beat. Whatever, just look at these pictures and be happy fools.

Word up pink flag canvas in the background. Would be entirely too easy to DIY. Stay tuned for upcoming post on DIY painted Wal-Mart rug (not by me... laziness always wins).



A little cutesy, but I'll take it.

My mom finally convinced my dad to let her install a clawfoot tub in her upstairs bathroom. I'm thinking I'd be ok with it turning out something like this.

My version of a manly man living room.

With some flowers to sweeten up the place.

I want the bird sillouette on the wall. True loves.

I would probs just die to have this couch in my house. Trashy velvet exterior never gets old.

Woof, shameless beagle love!!

Codiak lovin' in T-1 day, yessss.

Bathroom Humor

So I'm a little ways through Russell Baker's memoir, Growing Up, and I stumbled across a description of his experience with a rare and delightful wonder--taking a dump inside. 

Check.it.out.

"At the top of the stairs lay the miracle of plumbing. Shutting the door to be absolutely alone with it, I ran my fingers along the smooth enamel of the bathtub and glistening facet handles of the sink. The white majesty of the toilet bowl, through which gallons of water could be sent rushing by the slightest touch of a silvery level, filled me with envy. A roll of delicate paper was placed beside it. Here was luxury almost too rich to be borne by anyone whose idea of fancy toiletry was Uncle Irvey's two-hole privy and a Montgomery War catalog.

After gazing upon it as long as I dared without risking interruption by a search party, I pushed the lever and savored the supreme moment when thundering waters emptied into the bowl and vanished with a mighty gurgle."

So, in honor(?) of this passage, I thought I'd post some delicious examples of indoor plumbing that I certainly wouldn't mind having in my house. If I had a house. Anyway.

Toot-a-loo!

Aloha, Betches!

I haven't been to the beach since New Years 2008. If that's not a modern day tragedy, I don't know what is. I'm trying to plan some kind of getaway this summer and in doing so have headed to the net for some serious inspiration.

Like this gem, for example. I mean seriously. Places like this actually exist and I'm not there 24/7? Inconceivable. The blues, the greens, the seersucker, the pinks....

Or this delicious bathroom. Even with the creepy manly man picture looking down on me while I soak up the life of luxury--I can handle it.

Ok, so this isn't exactly a coastal view, but I don't discriminate against any mountains. Move over, baby--I'm coming in!

I think this next onewas photoshopped. Just saying.
*hello painted blue floor, we meet at last...*

LOOK AT THIS PAINTED STRIPED TABLE AND JUST DIE OF INSTANT HAPPINESS YESSSSSS!

In conclusion: the sandy goodness is calling my name...

Just Another Manic Monday

**Please refer to this link as a view into my exact thoughts on the biz-cas. Thank you.**

So apparently there was a power outage in my office building over the weekend which has caused all the alarms to trigger and wail into this high-pitched ear-splintering

"eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkkkkkkkkkkkk"

that literally makes you want to jump off the 11th floor (but you can't because they've locked the doors to keep you trapped inside, so lame). Plus, the noise is the loudest over my desk, which is soooo funny seeing how I'm the only person who had to come in today/there's nothing for me to work on/my shitty iPod battery just died/it's only 10:00.

Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. My ears are starting to bleed, eff my life.

But, hopefully I'll escape for lunch with Delaney and possibly run away/never return.

Moving on. Here's a tub for you. And a mirror that is humpalicious.

This weekend I watched The September Issue, a documentary on Anna Wintour, the editor of Vogue magazine. It was tres bien, suggest checking it out... although she was clearly not as fabulous as Meryl Streep--yeah I said it--nor as badass as her Creative Director, Grace Coddington.
--

Whatever, look at this backspash/stove combo and just die of happiness.

One day when I'm rich and nonfamous and even more fantastic than I already am, this is where I'll have a tea party with all my equally fuckingfab friends. Hello, barn aisle with million dollar ponies and and awesome light fixtures and super pretty flower arrangements and classy table settings and linen table clothes/napkins. Nice to see you.
