♥ makeup your mind.

while i may not be anywhere near the backstage of any fashion show, anywhere,

the wonderful thing that is the internet has brought to my fingertips the

prettiest of pictures from the mac cosmetics tumblr. 

even more than the exquisite makeup designs, i am loving the 

tactile quality and flawless details that only backstage makeup artists

& photographers are up close and personal enough to enjoy.

 jealous!!

♥ lovies.

how adorable are these blabla knit dolls?

i think my baby and i need matching ones :)

♥ switch it up.

in photographer, qozop's latet collection, spring-autumn, 

he asked asian subjects of different generations to swap clothing,

giving viewers the chance to observe the vast cultural differences between 

elder family members and their more westernized youngsters,

simply in their manner of dress.

in most pictures, i find that the older generation actually

looks cooler in the more youthful clothing than their

grandchildren do! wouldn't you agree?

♥ mosi along.

although i am considering moving my big, honking bicycle out of my tiny apartment

in preparation for baby's arrival- i am still hopeful that when the warm weather comes,

i will find a place to bring it and ride it! ( perhaps with baby in tow?)

until then- a girl can dream. 

and since it is a dream and all...maybe switch up my pink schwinn for one 

of these dreamy vintage-style, basket- clad, mosi bicycles?

la la love.

ps. cycle chic and bike baskets.

♥ duck, duck, goose.

the duck boots nick ordered for me from ll bean finally arrived in the mail this week-

(they were only on back order for two months-- nbd!), and i have been loving how

carefree i can be while stomping through slush puddles and enjoying the ease with 

which i can make it from my car to any destination without having to worry

about getting a shoe-ful of cold snow.

 on top of that, i love how they look! 

here's a few inspiring images of how to wear these

boots in a fashionable yet utilitarian manner:

♥ a sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost.

my nieces are totes adorbs.

♥ scenes from a snowy weekend.

we spent this bliazzardy weekend catching up on sleep,

 reading books, watching movies, and setting up 

baby henry's mini crib (!!!)

since our apartment is so small, our bedroom is his nursery-

and while this may not be alot of space for him in the long run,

i wouldn't have it any other way right now :)

how did you spend your weekend?
