DIY Inspiration. Take a white glazed pot, add plant, write with Sharpies (sharpie paint pens?). First seen at Swissmiss here. $30 Pot available in England from veinticuatrodientes here. *Write the lyrics round and round the pot with Stevie Wonder’s lyrics from “Secret Lives of Plants” (Youtube here):

I can’t conceive the nucleus of allBegins inside a tiny seedAnd what we think as insignificantProvides the purest air we breathe

I spotted this BB Dakota Rochelle Blazer today.  Looks like an awesome option for the upcoming cold months.  I often find that a hoodie and a coat starts to make you like like the marshmallow man so this would be great for cutting out the bulk but keeping hair off your face when the winds kick in!

Totally loving these Charlotte Ronson boots right now,  a perfect balance between boyish motorcycle boot and feminine knee high boot. They are on sale for 50% off at Shopbop right now, so tempted to purchase them!!
I want them right now!!

I went out with my best friend of 9 years last night.  I can’t think of anyone else that I have known for that long that has never pissed me off or never had a fight with.  She is one of those few people that gets me and even when I am acting highly neurotic or like a spoilt brat she just helps me get through it until I come out the other side.  She listens about my most trivial bullshit and always makes me feel better.  She doesn’t always end up with the best things in life like she deserves but I am sure they are all coming to her.

We had a few drinks last night, I even drank Jack Daniels with her, well out my usual drink zone, we complained about a sore feet in heels and hung out with some great friends.  Although I promised to bring some dancing to the floor it never eventuated.

After getting home at 4am, I am feeling a bit rough.

I want berocca and Pancakes right now!

This cutout bootie is something I have had my eye on for several months now and I am glad to see that http://www.loefflerrandall.com/ are still making them.  It does not seem that I am any closer to being about to afford this shoe anytime soon but I can keep dreaming!
