monday things

crap. i missed friday things. because i was too busy throwing shit at my tv. #ibelieveher

now it’s october. we had a bit of a cooler weekend (and by cooler i mean 82 instead of 92) with a faint hint of fall in the air. spiders are everywhere in their webs and it’s making me feel very halloweeny. already planning costumes. i’ve got some ideas. i’ll share in the next few weeks.

anyway…monday’s things:

a delightful instagram to follow.

this california roadhouse inn is giving me halloween vibes. the greenish-black exterior is REALLY cool.

if you read blogs you’ve probably already seen robert kime’s london flat. but just in case. rugs, rugs and more rugs, well made furniture and antiques are what you’re in for. also that casual vibe about it all. how does one actually DO that?

i know it’s fall but can we talk about this 10-minute lime cracker pie for a second? i’m gonna go out on a limb and say it’s probably friggin delicious. 5 ingredients and one of them is a sleeve of ritz crackers. i’ll bet you could put a halloween spin on this.

madewell now has a men’s selection.


who among you dermarolls? i am very curious about it because it makes more sense to me in the collagen boosting department than any powder. (i heard from a dermatologist that you can’t ingest collagen to improve the production of it…or something like that) anyway, it’s also CHEAP. i think like 28 bucks for the whole shebang. plus how to do it at home.

hello very cute, very now bag for $59.

and a very cute, very cozy lil jacket.

and finally…

this is long but enjoyable.

happy best month of all!

fresh etsy

just out here finding things.

that etsy can be a real dump of candy corn wreaths, doormats with words and upcycled tables but i like to think it’s my job to find the diamonds amongst the turds.

these are this weeks finds:

  1. pearl and bar ear jacket - i like this lots.

    2. vintage silk and lace ralph lauren blouse - i am ALWAYS looking for vintage ralph lauren. i have ‘hearted’ quite the load of it. some of it still grossly unaffordable and some of it a literal steal. like this blouse. how cute with distressed boyfriend jeans, cuffs rolled up a smidge and tucked into slouchy boots.

    3. thin gold accent facial roller - love the black obsidian one. these are great for lymphatic drainage. i keep mine in the freezer and let me tell you, on those extra puffy mornings it’s a godsend.

    4. vintage green coveralls - these have disappeared, but there are some great ones here. and these here are cute. i just think cute with a fancy embellished shoe. like this. or this.

    5. french enamel canisters - i am always searching for these. i love them a whole bunch. i like the more unusual colors and patterns. like these orange and green ones. the patina is perfect and such a nice glossy shine to the enamel. most of these run at least $250 and up. these are under $200.

    6. french enamel canisters - there are loads of blue and white versions of these but this is the first checkered pattern i have come across. and these are under $100. for a full set that’s pretty rare.

    7. layered and long coin necklaces - just a cute, sweet little necklace.

    8. vintage snakeskin western boots - if you were to buy these now you would pay a SHIT TON more. they are $62. size 7. if that were my size you better believe they would be mine. so jealous of the person who snags these.
