don't it though?

i totally dig this paper cut by owen gildersleeve (for id) that i peeped over at mint (which is a serious bloghole of cuteness if you have some time to kill).

just quit it.

seriously, alix. miss cherry blossom girl. your utter perfection/fairy-tale life/dream closet makes it hard enough to continue living my sub-par existence.
but when you top it off with these vintage platforms?!? i cry myself to sleep at night.

woah and woah.

amazing-looking confections from fortune cookie cafe: raspberry shortbread and assorted butterballs. get. in. my. mouth.

kaleidoscope eyes.

when i was at i heart the other night for heather's opening i saw this sweet little number from samantha pleet hanging on a rack and was unfortunately reminded of how much i want it. of course there are several other things i want to go with it: super long legs and a rack that actually looks good in something strapless. hey, a girl can dream.

pattern returns.

mike perry's show at GRNY will be totally boss, catch it. so many openings, so little time!

sunny afternoon.

if you ask me, there's nothing a little kinks can't fix. and if nothing's broken, the kinks make awesome awesomer. this video and this day were just made for each other.

neet 'n' greet.

i'm always stoked when a new issue of n.e.e.t. hits the internets and the latest edition is no exception. i love these photos by marie hochhaus. if the joys include confetti, cute girls, and colorful outifts i want to be full of them too.
these illustrations by kelly smith make me wish i was two-dimensional.

and these dreamy photos by 16-year-old eleanor hardwick make me wonder what i've been doing with my life.

click here for the full issue (and pay special attention to page 148 for an awesome illo by a certain someone). you can't beat my neet!
