Mad Hatters

                                                                        

                                                                             

I am truly in love with hats; I could wear jeans, a white t-shirt and a fabulous head piece every day and be happy. There is something so outrageous and fun about the over the top ones featured here.

It applies to so much in life, especially to art and love.

Cynthia Rowley Band Aids

O.k. Cynthia is making the rounds lately. She is designing her own clothing line, a separate one for Roxy and making appearances on Project Runway and other hit tv shows. Now designer band-aids? Hmmmmm. Would you wear a band-aid with a designer's name on it?  Even your boo-boo can be walking advertisement. Please, oh, please stop the insanity.  I hate myself for kind of wanting some of these. I am sick, sick, sick I tell ya. Admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery, guess I am on my way. via

COME ONE, COME ALL

Sea Worthy?

Gorgeous photos from Morocco by Justine Melford-Colegate via.  Do you ever look at these weathered ships and wonder what stories they could tell? I do. This one is perfectly broken in.  I just wanna climb on board and drift. I have allowed myself to become as civilized as I can be in order to accomplish some goals that require shoes and a schedule. But the bohemian world beckons & I dream of answering the call. Society is full of rules that I was born to break. I mean we all have a little "Jack Sparrow" within right?  Lets just all drive blue ships instead of our cars; doesn't that sound DREAMY? 

David Delfin & Gorka Postigo's Spanish Home

Sorry gang for being so missing in action lately.  . . busy times. This is not my job, it doesn't pay bills so . . . lets just call this my public scrapbook of things I love. There now that I have taken the pressure off myself I can take a deep breath and jump into action:

  I agree with Karly from Design Crisis blog. Some of the art is creepy in this modern escape owned by   fashion designer, Delfin, and his lover, Postigo, a photographer. But the rest of the home is the creme de la creme. Whew, loving the white walls and the wooden furniture pieces. via

Soft

Hope you all have reasons to be light on your feet all day and you are softly guided to your perfect spot in this great big world.  Sending love and fluffy energy to you all. via

Summer House in Uruguay

Those of you who have visited my house know that this bathroom belongs there. Oh the bubble baths we could take. . . and the essential oil soaps we could stash all along the edges. I am just trying to figure out what kind of sealant they used on the wood. Gorgeous. via

Nice shoes, fab old school glasses, bangs and a simple pair of jeans . . . ooo la la, I will take the whole ensemble via  Saffron Hunt.
