Great Deal on Cute Letterpress Stationary

I love the darling designs from stationary and design company Linda & Harriett.  I especially love letterpress cards and I always end up picking out their cards out at my local stationary shop.  As I was clearly in a festive mood last week, I had my eye on these summery notepads:

I managed to hold myself back. But, then today I noticed a sale email from Linda & Harriett in my inbox, so I had to check it out.  They've re-launched their "Outlet"  which offers some great deals on beautiful letterpress designs.   I've paid full price for some of these cards (up to $4.50 a piece!) so I can tell you that $6 for 5 is a great deal!  If you like to keep extra cards around just in case (A habit I learned from my mother)  Check some of these out...

Thank You Mermaid Cards ($6 for 5)

Green Alligator Cards ($7 for 10)

Congrats Confetti Card ($1.50)

Thank You Hearts ($1.50)

Pink Flamingos ($5 for 6)

There's nothing better than getting a handwritten note in the mail...

Back to Reality

I'm back from a lovely weekend up in the mountains.   While I can't complain about the view, I'm missing the fresh air already...

Patriotic.

Leave it to EmersonMade to one-up my red, white and blue fashion statement with a sequin American flag vest.  Love it!

Stars & Stripes Mandatory

The holiday weekend is almost here!   My friends and I are headed up to Tahoe to celebrate in style. In honor of America,  we make this annual pilgrimage a red, white, and blue weekend.  Thankfully my closet is full of accidentally patriotic attire.  (Plus, a stars and stripes swimsuit that comes out just once a year)

If you're stuck on what to wear for the 4th of July, this is basically what my suitcase will look like... hopefully it gives you some inspiration...

Happy 4th of July weekend!

Over the Sea....

I have a total obsession with all of the fun (and affordable) art available on Etsy.   This one from Laura Amiss is my current favorite.   I love how the waves have kind of a 60's/Yellow Submarine vibe.
