Boden



I received a Boden catalog in the mail the other day and am loving their detailed embellishments. My favorites were the ... Scallop Trim Coat , Corsage Flower Necklace, and the Rose Cardigan.

Another fun thing is their customized outfit maker, I wish all online shops had something like this.

Labour and Wait

As I was doing a google search for white enamel containers, I came across this lovely British shop called, "Labour and Wait" everything in their shop is perfect --- with simple and lovely timeless classic pieces.

My Tiger My Timing





I recently came across the British band My Tiger My Timing and I really like their sound, and I can't get the above song, "I am Sound" out of my head. It has an indie + electronic + pop vibe. Have you heard of them? I think they may have some promise, what do you think?

Hair Color Ads

























The creativity behind these Koleston Hair Color ads are terrific. They are produced by the Advertising Agency Leo Burnett out of Germany spotted over at I Believe in Advertising.

Hello + Alt Summit...

Yahoo, my internet is back -- well, hopefully for good. I guess it has something to do with the fiber optic infrastructure or something ... they are having major problems with it in our area so if I have touch and go posts this week that is why. Crossing my fingers it will be fixed this week. I hope you had a lovely break and Happy New Year and guess what? Today I turn the big 3-0. I can't believe it. My husband has some surprise plans that he won't tell me about for this evening, should be interesting. Over the break we played quite a bit in the snow and I ate way too many of these chocolates... yikes. Time for some healthy goals for the new year.
