fashion

1. love this jacket. love the off-the-shoulder style. love the structure. loooove the bows.  man, dior is awesome!  [picture = georgia may jagger for vogue uk jan '11]
2. not a big flannel fan but definitely a fan of unexpected pairings.  go here see cool examples of how to pull off this look.

 sparkles on our first lady? yes, please! [image via]

florence = awesome. [image via]

true, true, truuuuuuue. [via]

photography

lately i've been really into photographs that juxtapose winter bareness and snowfall with bright blossoms reminiscent of springtime.  these photos certainly fit the bill . [1. via; 2. via]

just now starting to get in the holiday spirit... & this spirited bike certainly helps spread the cheer! [image via]

hilarious!  my personal pencil would probably be the itty bitty nub of a pencil.  sigh.  [via]
