Loving this image by Edita Vlkeviciute for Numbero Magazine, August 2011.



Roadside Projects Paper Art

How amazing are these pieces of individual cut paper art by Jayme McGowan? Every tiny piece is made out of cut paper and built in 3-D shadow boxes. She then photographs them and sells the prints. I just can't believe how small some of the tiny pieces are..imagine her paper cuts.



The Move, Paper Animation by Mandy Smith

This entire video is made of cut paper, wait for the venus fly trap and cowhide rug..it's my favorite part.

This Weekend...

With an impending move and house on the market my weekend should be pretty full of to-dos. But stress aside I'm going to make some time to be poolside before these summery weekends are over.



Pretty Neon and Silver Palette



Kate Spade Westward Collection

Is it too early to start a christmas wish list? If not I'm lusting over this Westward Sequin Clutch. It's such a good transition piece from summer to fall and it'll still be sparkling in the winter. I like how versatile it is that it looks great even paired with ripped jean shorts and a plain tee for a casual daytime look.

Summer to Fall

I'm actually really ready for Fall now that it's getting to be the end of August. Fun fall fashion imagery doesn't hurt either.

Happy Swimming Weekend



Anthropologie Leawood Opening

I was delighted when I received an invitation to the grand opening of our second Anthropologie store here in Kansas City :) I grabbed a fellow Anthro loving co-worker and we headed to check it out. The store is more modern, with a neon installation in the back. We enjoyed the mini macaroon appetizers and chardonnay but of course we mainly enjoyed all the new digs. I luckily did not walk away with the entire store despite it being so tempting.

Splitscreen: A Love Story

This video- Splitscreen: A Love Story is so sweet and I love it because it features two amazing cities, Paris and New York and the entire thing was filmed on a Nokia N8 Mobile Phone. Sigh...I want to go abroad.

What's New

This past weekend the Depeapa tote I ordered came! After looking long and hard at some expensive canvas totes for work, I decided on this one, not as sturdy but oh so purdy. I couldn't be happier with my purchase from the Spanish designer. Along with my new tote my little pepper plants pushed out their last growths of the season. They are so small and spicy, I've been enjoying them on crackers with melted goat cheese..yum yum.

Sapling Press..Smart letterpress for you and yours

I adore simple letterpress but the quirky statements on Sapling's letterpress cards make them even more special.
