Ooh ah. So fresh and so clean. Perfect for today. This picture exemplifies the simple harmony that I am willing my apartment to metamorphosize (perhaps not a word...) into. It (the apartment that is) is slowly and surely taking on a life of its own that makes me smile, on the inside. Burn baby, burn.

If, perchance, I find myself holed up here this winter, with a few good books, a few good friends, and a pair of warm slippers, I would not be disappointed.

Just found these Grid Vases by Jaime Hayon and they have instantly become objects of DESIRE. They also remind me of a recently acquired Knoll Bertoia chair (thrift shop for $15. SCORE.) that I fall hard for every time I see it casually pulled up to my 1920's German deco desk. Photos coming of aforementioned situation not so soon.

Blown apart Bug. Wowza, love this!

I molded a mound of moss over the weekend.

a petite garden of green.

MOJO: a magic charm or spell.

Enduring crush. You will be mine.

This jacket doesn't actually exist... but I wish it did! Digital photo stills superimposed on parkas. HERE.
