  • Emma introduced readers to stylist Sidsel Zachariassen so I visited her website to look around.  Here are some of the many gorgeous photos on the site, styled by Sidsel.

  • This photo from an apartment therapy posting represents the new me. Kind of. 1. My Dansko clogs are old and shabby-chic (and not in a good way)..so it's time for new ones. 2. I love crazy socks.  Where does one buy crazy, fun socks?  Gymboree? Gap Kids? Europe? 3. I'm short, so I choose pant lengths…

  • It's Friday.  I've come into contact with people who are punchy today and ready for the weekend.  Perhaps that is why I received these photos + captions in an email today.  I've seen it before, but darn it, I laughed again.   Hoping Friday goes by quickly.  Am meeting Elena, Molly and Kalette at Starbucks to…

  • Beautiful rooms displayed on design*sponge today of the home of australian designer beci orpin. 

  • A description of a traveler's Swedish breakfast has enchanted me.  The breakfast, the first Swedish breakfast in a very long time, was maybe the closest to a religious experience I have ever come. Eggs and "Kalles kaviar", really good dark bread, incredibly nice (meaning cute) serving staff, "filmjölk" and tasty cereal. Dim lights, still dark…
