WOW. This week sort of flew by! I think i say that every week though, huh. Out here in San Francisco we are having SO. MUCH. RAIN. I tell ya, it was sunny and in the high 80s last week and now I’m thinking about having Greg make a fire tonight so we can all cuddle up on the couch and watch a movie. Despite the rain, Sam has been enjoying walks and then coming home and hogging up the entire couch…I told you he was a big boy!<\/p>\n

So to kick off the weekend, here are some cool things I’ve came across this week. And yes, that picture up there is me. I was 22 and kickin’ it with my groovy friend Mirka<\/a>, who was renting out Chuck Berry’s mini mansion with a bunch of her Cal Arts friends. Every day a new art project\/photo shoot\/film shoot was happening over there. I can’t remember what all these bunnies were for, but I do remember we had FUN! K, on to the links.<\/p>\n

1. PICTURE PERFECT LITTLE KIDDOS.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The styling on these two portraits by Stephanie Rausser are so dang cute. Reminds me I need to take some more photos of my kooky vintage boy too…..found over on Eliza magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n

2. STICKY SWEET.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I have always loved origami. And i think I already told you I love wrapping paper….so origami tape is something I feel like i MUST have! Check it out over on the Wantist<\/a>.<\/p>\n

3. OH CHEWIE, YA BIG SOFTIE.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This little guy is Awesome with a capital A. Once again, sassy Pilgrim doesn’t disappoint! Find out how to make one over here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

4. MASKED CREW-SADER.<\/strong>
\n
\nHave you seen these sweet little downloadable masks over on J Crew? They’re free! Download them here.<\/a> You’ll be taken to the J. Crew web site, and have to look on their left sidebar for a little b&w mask that says, “BOO!”<\/p>\n

5. HIP HIPSTER HURRAY.<\/strong>
\n
\n<\/p>\n

I’m kind of dying over the F\/W 2011 duds from Talc<\/a>. These kids are cooler than anyone I know. Except maybe Wolfie. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

6. WHAT WERE THEY REALLY SMOKING??<\/strong>
\n<\/p>\n

These vintage print as are both horrifying and hilarious….I think I prefer the Marlboro Man as a devious marketing tool. See more crazy retro ads over here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

7. AND THEY LIVED MODESTLY EVER AFTER.<\/strong>
\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Photographer Dina Goldstein’s collection of “Fallen Princesses” had me looking twice. You can see more here<\/a> or on Dina’s site<\/a>. Look for Pochahontas as a crazy cat lady.<\/p>\n

8. I LOVE THE FLAVORS OF FALL.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’m sooo excited autumn is here…it’s my favorite time of year. I love being snuggly and bundling up….and I love the food. This post of Tracy’s had me positively drooling. An amazing collection of autumnal treats\u00e2\u20ac\u201dveggie and non. See ’em here<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0on Shutterbean.<\/p>\n

9. CASUAL DOORWAY GORGEOUSNESS.<\/strong>
\n
\nBritish designer Eloise Grey shot some really lovely lookbook photos at her friend’s West London home. I love them. See more over at Honey Kennedy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

10. TARGET NEEDS TO START PAYING ME.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I swear I go there WAY too much. But I always find cool stuff. My last trip I saw a little bear hat, a Dr. Zhivago 60s faux fur pom pom hat, this cute foxy wallet, a cuckoo clock necklace, a deer ring AND a fox purse. Nope, I didn’t buy them all….but they all made me smile. Damn you, Target.<\/p>\n

BONUS VIDEO:<\/strong>
\n
\nJessi Arrington only packed 7 pairs of undies in her suitcase to TED….everything else she wore she thrifted over the weekend. While I don’t necessarily love every ensemble she puts together (she is even more color crazy than I am!), I thought she was super adorable and smart and her message was spot on! Watch her video here<\/a>. It’s not too long and really great!<\/p>\n
