marbles...

i am completely in love
with these marbled silk scarves by emily eibel and ilana kohn.

see the fun process here
and.....check out the rest of ilana's lovely fall collection here

oh, so much to love

found...

this is such a silly little thing
but it makes me happy.

i have a million (un-ribbed) white tank tops....
wear them all the time, with everything....
but i feel like i've been searching for a cream/ivory one forever.

well....i found this one at old navy....
lovely creamy goodness wrapped up in a simple tank
...on sale
and it even comes in tall online....making it super long
i wanted to buy a dozen

pattern...

i've always thought of patterned shoelaces
as a little jr high-ish
and maybe a little dorky...
...no offense, because i was obviously wrong....
these have me wanting to spruce up my lace up shoes
with some fun argyle or plaid laces....
....or maybe i should just buy these great booties

love...

ran into urban outfitters with my son...
...and he found these

what a great find
and......big smiles when he wears them :)

bodkin...

love the dress....
....love the dress with those boots....

my favorite look...

from the haute hippie lookbook

certainly ambitious...but super cool...

have you seen this?
free people gave away this rug from their summer display...
...and then posted a diy because everyone loved it so much
if i could cobble together enough time..
i would certainly love to make this rug...

indie fun...

the weekend was jam-packed....
...we popped down to atlanta for my son's high school soccer tournament....
(so much fun)
then we scrambled back in town just in time to make it to the
last saturday hour of the indie craft parade....
...it was fun to run into so many people we knew...
and check out all the amazing, creative goodness going on there....

...and....
this cute tee by jordan grace owens
managed to come home with me...
and i did get a strawberry mini cupcake by figgywhigs
(those things are the best)

this weekend...

it's indie craft parade time....
i loved being a part of it last year....
...but this year, life just got in the way...
but i am excited about going....
and picking up a fabulous thing or two
...and grabbing one...or three of these delicious cupcakes.
