These are a few of my favorite things (this week)

Sorry for the lack of posts. I do actually have more time nowadays but besides ungodly frigid temps and work I just haven't had much outfit inspiration lately. I'll work on getting out of my fashion funk, but until then here are a few images that have tickled my fancy recently.

1. Patterned Pants. I have a pair of herringbone pants that I bought in september and have never worn. But this picture has totally inspired me to dust them off and wear them, look out for a similar outfit in an upcoming post.

2. Bomber jacket inspiration. While digging through my closet looking for new year's eve outfit inspiration I came across a vintage bomber jacket I stole from my mother and promptly forgot. That jacket gave me all kinds of outfit inspiration that, unforunately, will have to wait for the spring. For now here are some ways I plan to rock the jacket in the warmer months.

3. Heather and Dave's Eclectic Enclave. Although I love looking through all the house tours on Apartment Therapy most of them really aren't my taste or I just like bits and bobs of them. But Heather and Dave's eclectic enclave had me drooling with every click of my mouse. I mean It's gorgeous, I want to steal all of their decorating ideas. Some of my favorites from their home tour are below, but you should obviously go to the article and see all of the decorating goodness that is their home.




I'm obsessed with this wallpaper. One day it or something like it will be a part of my home decor.



Coolest half bath EVER!!! I love the wall covering in the bathroom.

4. Emily's Couch.  I've loved Emily Henderson since she won Design Star season 5. But, it wasn't until recently that I became obsessed with her blog. While going through her blog I found something that looked very familiar. I'm pretty sure Emily and I have the same couch, though her's is reupholstered and probably in better condition, but she paid $900.00 and mine was a whapping $30.00. Anyway her living room as a whole is pretty awesome and it's always fun to see your couch, especially in a designer's home.

5. Give me a Hand Chair. I really really want a 70's hand chair, seriously guys. I love the kitsch and those hand chairs are just everything to me. I know I could probably get one at a cheap/tacky furniture store but I'm thinking I'll come across one when the time is right. Until then I'm just kind of obsessed with pictures like these:

7. Golden Globes Faves.  I don't usually do awards show roundups and I don't know if I ever really will, but there were some truly gorgeous gowns at the golden globes. so here are my faves.

I know some people hated this dress but I'm obsessed with it, it was my favorite of the night.
This dress was a close second for my favorite of the night.




J.Lo looked good but this is just standard JLo fare in my opinion. Pretty but kinda boring.

8. Girls. I hated on Girls all last year, refusing to watch the show. A show that showcased my own underemployment just seemed less escapist and more a reminder of my less than stellar employment status. But a year later with so much Girls talk and season 2 looming I figured I'd bite the bullet and watch the first season on HBO go. OK I have to admit I actually like the show. It can be a little irritating, but I have to admit I'm kind of a fan now.



9.  Lady Mary Marries.  I'm know I'm not the only one glad lady Mary and Matthew finally married. If Downton had tried to drag that relationship out anymore I might of had to cut a bitch.

10. Cat Friend/ Dog Friend. Ok so this video is kind of old but it's just too funny not to post. My cat diamond is almost exactly like cat friend and it kills me every time. My favorite part is when cat friend give that guy the finger, my cat would totally do that if she were human.
