Paper Planes

We made them when we were kids because it was RAD...now we make them out of boredom...well that and because it's still kinda fun.

 Nostalgia makes this necklace a must have...it's also a great conversation piece...because everyone will be commenting and complementing!

Dinner and a Show

Let's be honest...you get home and the last thing you want to do is cook...well it's that way for the most of us any way.  When I saw these kitchen tools I knew they had to be mine...obsessed over tongs and a flipper...heck yes!  If you knew me you might have purchased these for me...I have a pretend microphone in my car so I can sing to people in traffic jams...I'm serious...I do a mean Alicia Keys (pretend piano playing included)!

Navajo You Didn't...

I love items with some heritage...history...this Navajo Bag by Pendleton has just that! 


$128

 Navajo is going to be big for Spring/Summer and well into Fall if you ask me...if you're obsessed too I recommend checking out more from Pendleton as well as searching for vintage gear online...the vintage stuff I'm finding online is even cooler in some instances!

Salty

Could be a Northwest thing...I'm not sure...at any rate I loved these sandals as a kid and I still do! 


$39
Salt Water Sandal
They look great with a simple summer dress, shorts and a sweet top...possibilities are endless.  Best part, they stay on your feet while taking a long walk on the beach...and you can even wear them in the ocean...it actually improves their fit!  I'm torn...do I get them in navy, black, red or even white...wonder if they have hot pink (obsession)?

No Sleep Til...

Da nah...nah nah BROOKLYN!

$78.00
by Kate Spade
Seriously lusting after this bracelet...I mean I'm taking my first trip EVER to NYC this June...I need it right?  Going to have to pay Kate Spade a visit to see if I can cram my not so lady like wrist in it without it looking like a hot mess.  Anyone know any good wrist exercises to slim down quick...ew...don't answer that!

Unicorn Love

Are you friggin kidding me?  How great is this vase?  Seriously...it's even better in person...and I'm IN LOVE!  I'm already dreaming up the perfect variety of flower to complement the cuteness...and I don't even own the vase...YET!

$35.00
by Imm Living
Another find stopping me in my tracks while passing by Park Life in San Francisco’s Inner Richmond.  These guys seem to know how to buy everything I’d ever want that I don’t need…that I end up buying because…well…I can’t live without it!  I HEART PARK LIFE!

That's Money

If you've read my other entries you know my deal...the more money you save the more you have to spend...well then you also know I like to do it in style.  Owl's are all the rage...but I swear I liked them before they were OOBER POPULAR. 
Ceramic Owl Bank
$12.00
I didn't hesitate to snap this owl bank up while passing by one of my fave local SF shops, Park Life.  Put away all that heavy change in style...save it for a rainy day!

This Little Baker Made Jewelry

If you haven't heard of Kimberly Baker by now you've been missing out.  Her jewelry speaks to people...to me.  I can identify with the story of Frida...perhaps that's why I bought the earrings when visiting the Kimberly Baker Flagship in Seattle...I had my heart set on Juliet before I even got there...but after seeing Frida and reading "her" story I knew I wanted to be Frida...Juliet was who I already was.

"FRIDA- They say that love is a battlefield, and Frida’s ready to fight. True her heart’s on the line, but it’s backed it up with some serious muscle; a precious little grenade, as delicate as her heart. So best be careful when handling, or BAM – you might be in for a nasty shock."

"JULIET- She still believes in true love, but hey, Juliet's a modern girl. She's taken a few hits that left her perfect heart pounded, but at the end of the day, she's still a romantic. These days, Happily Ever After is a tall order. She'd settle for dinner and a movie.
Check out www.kimberlybaker.com for her newest collection...visit her Seattle store...you won't be disappointed!
