Happy Friday dear readers! Did you survive the first week back? I’m looking forward to this weekend in particular because Matt finally gets back from his holiday travels abroad. What do you have planned for the next couple of days off? Here, to get your weekend started right, a few happy posts from around the web:
Illustrated plates.
Holiday portrait.
A 17-mile drive.
Sparkle polish.
The eyes have it.
Send a note.
Sequin photobooth!

See New York through Herb Lester‘s eyes with this gorgeously illustrated city map and guide, designed by Manhattan’s own Jim Datz. It contains info on all of the city’s most classic spots ā from McSorley’s to the Paris Theatre, this guide will help you re-discover “old” New York.
Interested in finding the same info on other major cities around the world? London, Paris, and Glasgow are all available now, with more international locations on the way.
Such a creative representation of New York, don’t you think?

The first couple of images are out: Jason Wu’s first collaboration with Target is as chic as it is affordable. Amazing! Now the bigger question. How on earth are we going to be able to wait until February to shop? š

It’s official ā happy 2012 my dear readers! š What a festive holiday season it was! I thought I would post a couple of pics from New Year’s Eve. You might recognize my date ā this is the fifth NYE we have spent together. So hard to believe! Instead of posting my resolutions, I thought I would make a short list of a few things I’m looking forward to this year:
Visiting Paris (and Niagara Falls and Ireland).
Turning 30!
Celebrating my fourth year in New York.
Trying this restaurant. And going back to this one (and this one).
Running another race in Central Park.
The return of Don Draper.
Writing more and expanding my blog.
What are you looking forward to in 2012?
Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt say it best ā what are you doing New Year’s Eve? š Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend ahead and a happy and healthy 2012. Thanks for reading my blog!
