We had one of those weekends where we did a lot of stuff,
but at the end you go "wait, where did the days go?"
The sunshine was glorious this weekend, but the clear skies kept the temps pretty cool.
I hate to say we wasted some of it by shopping instead of, say, shiver-y hiking....
...but look. Pretty!
I scored this dress(for like, half this price) at an awesome little boutique.
We've also been wanting the perfect table to live behind our sofa (so we can stop balancing things precariously on surfaces things were not meant to be balanced upon). After TWO HOURS at Ikea, we picked up this fella.
Round out the weekend with some delicious 'chocolate' stout (as in color, not flavor), and I'd say a heartily random time was had by all.
{ what shenanigans did you get into this weekend? }
Psssst! - I also bought this sweater in olive green, on double clearance. They only have 'em in stores, but $14.95?! c'mon!
Probably everyone else is already aware of the awesomeness of this shop. Wouldn't this pouch make a styling clutch??
"Choose Any 10 Bars // Vegan Organic Cold Process Soap" by prunellasoap
There is something so delightful about these soaps. They remind me of artfully crafted candies. (And I love me some candy.) I wish I'd found these before Christmas - this lot would make perfect stocking stuffers! Good thing I've got lots of upcoming birthdays...
This shop is just bursting with uber-cuteness. These sweet little bunnies look they've just wandered out of the pages of a children's book. He'd make a lovely desk mascot though, wouldn't he?
"A cup of Nordic Tea - Retro Scandinavian design Poster A3 Yellow" by handz
I don't know what Nordic Tea is, but I want some! I love the celebration of classic vintage design, the cheery colors - it's all perfect. (And seriously all the prints in this shop are equally fabulous!)
I would say this was probably one of the laziest weekends we'd ever had, but we did actually manage to leave the house on two seperate occasions.
We watched the Super Bowl on Sunday. It's a completely different experience when you have no vested interest in the outcome. And this year I *gasp* actually watched the game, instead of just the commercials.
But. I did still watch 'em.
This made me so homesick!
And this was pretty much the cutest commercial I've ever seen.
{ Sometimes it's just nice to play it lowkey, eh? }
Part of my job now requires me to do quite a bit of local traveling.
Which means I need to be very organized these days...
"Large Brown Leather Tundra Laptop Bag" by hoakonhelga
Made from a vintage leather jacket, this roomy satchel would be perfect to stow my laptop, cords, documents and all manner of what not. And. It's. So. Cool.
"Zipper Pouch - Red and Navy Check" by clickboutique
I really need a better way to carry my supply of pens. I spent 5 minutes fishing around for one yesterday. Not cool. Plus, plaid!
I already have a pocket size planner, but there's some appeal to having the whole month laid out before you. And I love these sweet little patterns.
"Vertical Document Hold (Heather Natural Grey)" by Jdothandcrafted
I like the idea of a dedicated case for all these documents I lug around. Especially in a less firm bag, like that gorgeous one above. These would surely keep everything neat and tidy.
"size 7.5 chocolate brown leather riding boots" by myfavoritevintage
Running around town means one thing for sure -- goodbye high heels!
But hellooooo, killer boots!
