Fuel for the Week.

I'm just warning you guys,

it's getting close to finals time here on campus.

So in future posts, you will get either A) incoherent sentences about

stress and dislike or B) nothing at all.

Woo. Hoo.

Portugal. The Man - So American

Not only are these sunglasses by Shwood unique

and cute, they're made from recycled materials. No

machines, just craftsmen. What a conversation piece.....

RossLab's ceramics are so cute. I mean, there's no

other way to put it! Just look at the sugar/salt/pepper cellars

and the creamer/sugar bowls above. Ah. Also,

be sure to check out the other goods, like earrings and rings!

I'm in love with Rachel Rinehart's photography.

The photos are all organized in to her personal 'diaries', and

all equally encompasses a time when we were young, wild, and free.

That is all for now kiddos.

Lovvvves.

I'll admit, since Thursday was my birthday, I

skipped class on Thursday (and requested off work for the week).

So this Monday I'm a little bitter!

Can we make this day a little better?

The Head and the Heart - Lost in my Mind

Handbags happen to be one of my weeknesses.

And FYI there is a handbags.com

So.....problem solved! Like this satchel,

that also comes in a variety of colors.

Large bags like the one first listed are nice, but

 I do find myself moving towards smaller options

these days. And this colorful wristlet from 

Ann Taylor seems perfect!

Los Poblanos is an organic farm/inn a few miles

from Albuquerque that has a multitude of goodies

such as soaps, lotions, and solves. Plus, the adorable packaging

was the first thing I bought.

The prints from Black Baroque fits my style perfectly.

All whimsy, color, and antique mixed into one fine print.

Have a lovely day!

Happy monday everyone.

I hope your easter holiday was a joyful one.

Over in my neck of the woods, it was a beautiful day out!

Friday night my mind was so incredibly blown

from the amazing show Delta Spirit put on.

Seriously, best live band in a longlonglong time, folks.

Robert Howsare has some of the most relaxing,

invigorating, and lively prints out there.

Just slap one on a t-shirt and call me sold.

Also, check out his ingenious video, drawing apparatus.

Over at LemKa's B side, you will find some

pretty nifty leather things such as hair pieces,

bracelets, necklaces and tassles.

So here's to wearing an old gray t-shirt but still

looking dang good.

This has to be one of the most adorable videos ever!

"Lost Things", directed by even cuter duo, Angela Kohler and

Ithyle Griffiths, the stop motion project is truly incredible when you

notice the detail and effort put in to it. Plus, when you get

A Fine Frenzy's, Alison Sudol to sing and pose

for you, well, I think they've got it made and therefore, we do too.

Have a wonderful week everyone!

Good Monday everyone!

Fuel for the Week is back!

(For now....)

I know you've waited patiently,

so let's just get down to it :)

 I love it when I can find a good lookbook to get

my fashion mind running,

and Shop Sosie does a pretty great job at that!

The rugs that come from Jonathan Adler
are pretty unique. And there is also a
neat little 'design your own' section too...

Brandon Chuesy has let out a zine line titled, "Can I Call You Back?"

It's a very organic and unique piece to have around that

can catch anyone's eye.

Each is hand painted and bound with it's own edition number.

I never thought I would get so excited over little

wooden boxes, but alas, My House of Dreams came along.

This etsy shop is full of whimsical and darling little boxes.

It makes me want to get a little box and hide away a secret =)

Fuel for the Week.

Happy early Love Day everyone!

I'm especially happy today to bring you some

Valentine inspired things for this sweet holiday!

Adorbs. Marc Jacobs. Adorbs.

Just go to Piperlime and get them. Now.

We all know you get either candies or jewelry for V-day.

It's not rocket science that this glass box is the perfect place to keep them.

Is it me, or can you picture a little gold fish swimming around in there too?

Oh so loving this clutch from Forever 21.

So cute, so affordable. Hearts.

Whenever I think of this holiday, I think of strawberries and chocolate.

(Or chocolate covered strawberries, which is unrelated at the moment).

So I thought this is the perfect time to test out these two recipes.

The first is cheesecake filled strawberries, found here.

And the second is a German Chocolate Cupcake, found here.

I feel that letterpressed cards show a little more authenticity and thought.

And the ones from Parrott Design Studio are

a great way to start and share the love tomorrow.

And for those who tend to take a ba-humbug approach

to Valentines day? Well, you get this pin.

Everyone have a hot and chocolate covered

Valentines!

I know it's nearly February, but this little video from

Roxy's Spring '12 swim collection is so cute and gets

me so excited!

These custom monogramed burlap pillows from

Next Door to Heaven's Etsy shop are adorable!

I will have one of each letter please.

You can't go wrong with anything from Vans.

And these girl skate hats? Well, I just got one in

purple :)

I'm not sure what I would do if I was in

a bar and witnessed a dancing bit like in this video, "changing",

by The Airborne Toxic Event, but I do know I would like it.

Happy Monday everyone :)



Fuel for the Week.

This is the last week until school starts back.

Jeeze, I hope I make the most of it :)

This my friends is The Kingston Springs and I had the fabulous

honor of seeing them live last Saturday.

Lovelovelove them.

How darling are these shoes from ModCloth?

Oh and it does help that they're under 50 bucks too!

This piece from Karen Kraven is very interesting to me.

It's titled, Summoned Luck for Missing Numbers

and I find myself wanting to stare at each card, thinking of it's

past owners, history, and meaning.

Who knows what interesting conversations have been held

 around them.

 

 

 

I don't think it takes much effort to see

that Maurie and Eve's Autumn 2012 collection is pretty stunning.

I just can't decide if I want to be the clothes or the model more.

Around this time of year when the winter chill

is really starting to set in, I am always drawn to thick wools

and earthy textures, in which the etsy shop,

Branch and Birdie definitely have covered.

Photographer Eleanor Harwick just took a

(from what I've seen) pretty incredible trip to India, in which you

can view her India Diary.

Have a good one everyone!

Mwahhhhhhhh.

Fuel for the Week.

First Aid Kit - The Lions Roar

This book  on Joan Jett is pretty ahhhmazing.

Great pictures, and great stories.

I'm very proud to show it off to everyone!

For all of yous who love to be in the kitchen

as much as I do would probably agree that this

compact herb chopper is a must have convenience on hand.

 

 

 

What a better way to ring in the new year than with plans

to take a road trip! And with this personalized map, you can

track where you go and keep it for years to come.

The retro style kitchen timers from apartment 48 

are so unique! I want the blue one. No wait- the green.

And the black one.....

Sigh.

 

 

Everyone have a wonderful week!

Just think, Christmas is around the corner!



Fuel for the Week.

Guess what? This is the last week of the semester!!!

My emotions are a mixture of excitement, relief, incredible stress,

and a lack of dedication.

So here are some things that I will be looking forward to

picking apart as soon as I turn in my last scantron sheet.

Mindy Smith - Santa Will Find You

During the holidays, there's undoubtedly a lot of

sweets being baked and tossed around.

But I hope to warm all the hearts and tummies

with this finger food.

How adorbs are these baby felt shoes?!

I found them at the Purl Bee . I read the

tutorial and it seem so easy ya'll!

I mean, I got a reason to make them too!

You skimmed this one, Binx.

This 2012 hand printed calendar from sheep shead is perfect!

All your gal pals would love it!

Have a good week everyone.

I'm giving you warning now, after this week, Cameron

will be in Christmas mode!
