this sweet

little print is cheering me up.


i think i always get a bit gloomy around this time. i'm impatient for warmer weather and longer evenings...

{more great illustrations here}

my oscar

picks.

oh not from this year.

let's go more classy.


paul newman. despite the cigarette, he looks dashing.


audrey, a true style icon. love that fitted, belted waist with the full skirt.


ahh. my favorite. gregory peck.

{photos found here}

this skirt

is very tempting.love the color.
love the cut.
love that it can be worn year-round.
don't love that at half off, it is still over $100.

find it here.

what a

fantastic spring coat.love those detailed pockets.


i think i have serious cabin fever...

approx $345 here.

i may

have a bit of a problem with toothpaste containers. i know, very random, but as i get down to the last bit of the toothpaste, i always seem to have difficulty squeezing the toothpaste out.

but now, a solution:
oh yes. a "tube squeezer." probably made for mildly obsessive people like myself...who want to use every last bit but for some reason, have a bit of difficulty.

find them, and other incredibly useful products here.

i readily

admit. i have a compulsion for storage. which does not at all mean that i am super neat. but it does mean i love to see things organized, in respective containers. the actual act of organizing itself is very cathartic to me.

in that vein, i present muji storage. established in japan over thirty years ago, muji sells simplicity, and sells it well.

all of the above are under $5.00. what a fabulous and inexpensive way to organize your products shelves.

see more simplicity here.

i am

a member of numerous online shopping sites which sometimes sell a bunch of crap and which every now and then...offer up something really good.

like yesterday's creed offering from 'beyond the rack'

my pick?without a doubt, spring flowers.

i think i smelled this first in high school and was completely smitten. not usually one to fall for florals, this perfume is cheery, fresh, and sweet without being saccharine or overpowering.

and when i found out that it was made for audrey hepburn? well, that just made it even sweeter.

of course, there are a lot of other scents to choose from.
