stuff & things vol. 13

I really love Mandi's handmade dress and really want to make one just like it of my own.

But you know, not maternity.

What's cooler than floral jorts?! I need to find a pair!

What a clever tattoo idea! I love this!

I am so excited for this to come out! It looks so cool, plus Leo is just the dreamiest.

If I had $238 to spare I'd definitely grab this dress! I've never been a big stripe person, but I've been crazy about them lately!

Sarah of Mouse Trap Vintage posted this awesome Moonrise Kingdom themed update.

If you haven't seen this yet you must!


I hope you all have a great weekend!

Fake house hunting is probably one of my favorite time-sucking things to do online. I found a few really great places recently. Including this one that not only looks really nice, but is a lot cheaper than our place. Bummer!

This is really cool!

The fact that Maggie's Farm is at 299 sales! Sale 300 gets a special gift! Who is it going to be?! :)

 So, How I Met Your Mother is one of the greatest shows ever, right?! I've been re-watching the whole series on Netflix these last few weeks and no matter how many times I see each episode they'll always be hilarious! 

I totally got sucked into Handmade Ryan Gosling once again last night. He's just so sweet and understanding. :)

I had to include this after cracking up when I saw it on Kaelah's blog!

I hope you all have a great weekend!!

This week's installment might as well be named 'things I want this week.' But that's a-okay with me. All I'm doing is window shopping and lots of money-saving (because there's hopefully a new(ish) car in my future).

Vanessa of The Velvet Bird released her perfect new collection earlier this week. I really kind of want every single thing she has in her shop.

These Leah Goren iPhone cases are great, especially the floral and the cats!

 Summerland's 2012 Spring lookbook was also recently released. I would love anything and everything I see in these dreamy photos!

I don't know what it is about me and tan polka dots lately, but this top definitely satisfies that love.

stuff & things vol. 9

Friday already?? I feel like I was just doing my last Stuff & Things post yesterday! But there are a few more neat things to talk about like...

The fact that we are seeing the incredible Ben Kweller yet again this evening! I am so excited!

And also that Mad Men is back! The premier wasn't as thrilling as I had hoped, but it was nice to catch up on what everyone's been up to.

Then there's Bri with her awesome blog and her great hair that I've been dying over! If you don't read her blog already then do it right now!!

There is also this pretty neat tag stamp DIY that I'm going to have to try out.

And last, but not least, there is Anja's new collection filled with cute marbleized skater dresses that I would love to get my hands on!

What are you loving this week? 

stuff & things vol. 8

Things are starting to look pretty Summery around the shop and I couldn't be happier about it!

These DIY scratch offs are such an awesome idea! I never even knew this was possible, but I really want to give it a try now!!

Wes Anderson has done it again. Another commercial, but one so epic that there is a commercial for the commercial! Crazy!

How neat are these?! Totally functional jewelry!

I got to see Delta Spirit on Tuesday night and they were so awesome! You should give them a listen if you haven't heard them before. They won't let you down, promise!

And last, but certainly not least, I am so excited about Mad Men's return on Sunday!

stuff & things vol. 7

Since I took that little break I've missed a couple weeks of stuff & things. So some of these may be old news, but even if it is, it's still old news that I think is pretty neat.

The always lovely Sandi bought these cute shoes from my shop a while back and showed them off recently. So cute!

I just came across these pretty Stella Mccartney images. So fun and Springy!

I wish our home could look like this. Too bad our cat won't allow that. Does anyone out there have any advice on keeping cats from eating your plants??

Shoes are something that I never would have thought to DIY, but Elizabeth posted a pretty cool Shoe DIY a little while back. I think I'm going to have to try something like this pretty soon!

Another really great recent DIY! This seems like such a simple, but awesome idea that Elsie blogged about. Another one I need to try out soon!

stuff & things vol. 6

This week's edition starts off with the perfect shoe. Look at all of those! While I probably won't ever be spending that much for a real pair of Swedish Hasbeens, I hope to get a pair of knockoffs this Spring!

This adorable little picnic in a suitcase is pretty perfect.

This funny cat picture with cat wallpaper! What?!

This neat tote bag with the ingredients for guacamole.

I know I've been talking about pastels all week, but this pretty dress definitely deserved a shout out!  

And finally, even though I didn't see many of the nominated movies I'm really looking forward to watching the Oscars on Sunday!

Have a wonderful weekend!!

stuff & things vol. 5

So, another week has come and gone already? Ridiculous.

After seeing this dreamy image I definitely have some plans for my Valentine's Day flowers in the next few days.

I saw these nails last week on Pinterest and thought they were adorable. I already had a clear matte nail polish, so I tried it out with a more orangey coral color. Now I kind of want to add that matte topcoat to every color!

I'm happy to see that Mandi is back to blogging! She is one of my very favorite bloggers and I can't wait to see what she does with that cute new house of hers!

This adorable old bike makes me even more excited for warm weather and breaking out my own bike. Come on Spring!

Kaelah just moved too and I am so jealous of all the peeks she's shared so far. Look at that closet! I can't wait to see the rest.

And finally, if you haven't already, be sure to enter my giveaway to celebrate MFV's second birthday!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
