Society6

B&R by MizEnScen

I just became acquainted with Society 6 today, and have already spent hours and hours going through some of the most amazing (and affordable) art I have seen in a while.  Everybody keeps going on and on about 20X200, but I say Society6 is where it is at.  Here are a few of my favorite prints...

They Come by Scott Listfield

Champagne dreams and a beer budget...

Urban Outfitters is a store that, in my youth, used to suck my money away as fast as I could make it.  Now that I'm older and work in an office building with a boring dress code, it's harder to find things that are age appropriate and well...yeah.  I live in the NW and mini skirts and t-shirts with a bunch of holes in them aren't great investment pieces... but you know what are? These dresses by Stine Goya Anthia and these shoes by Jeffrey Campbell.  Now, while these pieces evoke "i want it i want it i want it" temper tantrums inside of me, they are all well above doable in price.  All I can do is pray to the shopping fairy that they are around long enough for employee appreciation week and I can use my friends and fam discount to score all three. Maybe by then they'll even be on sale and I can pump my fist in the air in victory. --See how I handle tantrums? It's very effective.

I love everything about her: Her offbeat lifestyle, her talent, her aesthetic, the way she talks... I wish I could meet her for tea and discuss our latest reads and favourite artists.  Swoon...

Apparently I have an obsession...

I have been on the hunt for a great watch for about 2 years now.  The problem is, I have teeny tiny wrists, so I can't wear watches with link-bands, only leather. To add to my tall list of specifications, I am currently obsessed with rose gold and want the watch to feel sleek and understated.  I was having a really hard time with this until I ran across Nixon's Shutter SS.  I must have this watch.  I am literally debating not paying my student loan so that I can have this watch.  Please cosmos, make it financially possible to attain this beauty, because if I don't have it I will throw a fit and be late to everything, on purpose.

The perfect song for today...

If I could be anywhere right now...

I would be in the beautiful Grand Hotel Tremezzo on Lake Como, Italy.  This place is absolute heaven.  Beautifully manicured gardens? Check. Breath-taking scenery?  Check.  Old Hollywood cred? Check!  Greta Garbo was one of the first starlets to stay here, and I can imagine her draped on a terrace overlooking the lake and sighing "I'm finally alone."
