The one that got away


It doesn't matter that this Stella McCartney Koons Bunny bracelet cost roughly what I might pay for my next car, I've had it stuck in my head for a few years.

I heart BK


A cool photo from David Flannery.

Joy de vivre
I'm considering incorporating a green wall into my Make It Right Project housing for New Orleans.

If only...


I would love to buy this dress with someone else's money.

SPRUNG!

OK, so it's snowing in Brooklyn on this first day of Spring. But some things have sprung, like the O.P.I. for Sephora Spring palette.


If I had a yard and no budget I'd be all over the White Flower Farm catalog.
One day...

Trend Obsession

JUMPSUITS!!!

I am inexplicably craving them. The one I have in my mind apparently doesn't exist. A short sleeved top w a collar, cinched at the waist, with a 3/4 length harem pant. However, I enjoyed viewing many other versions at style.com.

Design Candy


These chocolate bars by Tithi Kutchamuch make a social message about less is more, and bargain foods and bla bla bla. I just wish they were sold as a whole so that I could eat my own shapes. Alas, I won't be eating any shapes into chocolate until Easter.

Until then, I wouldn't mind tiding myself over with these...

They're rings you make out of a template. One for every month. Delightful. A creative commitment I could probably handle.

Rings also by Tithi.
