Keeping track of time

Yes, 2013 is still several months away, but if you love Rifle Paper Co.’s Cities Calendar as much as I do, you’ll have to snag it now. Each month features a hand-painted map of 12 different cities from around the world. It’s the perfect way to daydream about international travel all year long. 🙂

What kind of calendar do you keep? Are you old-school, writing everything down, or do you keep track of your schedule digitally?

Pinterest love

Pinterest is my late night addition. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I always find myself finding tons of inspirational items to pin. It also makes me sleep a bit easier—instead of tear-sheeting magazines, tacking up quotes, or printing out photos, I have a virtual world where all the things I love are right where I last left them, all in the same place. Above and below, a few things from my Pinterest world. Follow me here!

A gorgeous dress (above); an Audrey Hepburn quote.

A way to cool down; a reminder to dance.
A place to escape to; a reason to return.
Happy Monday! xx

The weekend is here!

Happy Friday, my darling readers! What do you have planned for the next couple of days? I’m looking forward to some down time — and maybe a little theater, too. There are only two weeks left to see One Man, Two Guvnors, and I don’t want to miss out. Have you seen any good theater lately? Would love to know if you have any shows to recommend. In the meantime, have a wonderful weekend. Here, to get it started right, a few happy posts from around the web:

Ode to an icon.

Wearable Instagram.

The bright spot in your closet.

New Yorker, circa 1931.

These boots were made for walking.

An iphone cover I want.

Fall perks.

Edith Wharton, a la Vogue.

Start a movie club. (If I do it, who wants to join??)

So happy for Jennifer!

Fall fashion

I made the mistake of browsing in J.Crew on my walk home from work this week. It got me so excited for fall. Even though I’m not heading back to school, I always get that rush of a new beginning and a fresh start when I see crisp, new fall fashions in the windows of my favorite stores. It inspired me to go home and start making a list of the staple items I need to update and invest in this fall. A navy jacket, a peplum dress, polka dots — all are on my list.


What trend are you most excited about for fall?

Beach holiday

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could spend today lounging at the beach or by the pool? Since I can’t, I’m going to channel Audrey Hepburn as she appears in the photo above. Doesn’t she look relaxed? 🙂

Happy Wednesday!
