Arlo Weiner, son of Mad Men creator Matt Weiner, is one sharp dresser. Oh yeah, and he’s only in 2nd grade. {In 2nd grade I would have thought an “ascot” was a bad word and definitely not something you wore around your neck.} This kid’s got it together {supposedly, even Beck had taken notice}. I’m glad his parents appreciate his creative fashion sense — my parents almost disowned my younger brother when he once wore a velvet maroon blazer to high school.

Lovely artwork by Mike Mills. {Wonderful colors, lines, and composition.} I would love to have one of these pieces framed on my wall. Until then, you can purchase a book of these from Nieves.

It’s amazing how far $300 {and a little re-organizing} can go . Just look at these mini-makeovers. Sure, 1/3 of a grand is only going to transform your living room by so much, but the difference is certainly noticeable and even aesthetically pleasing.

I guess the economy is in bad shape when lux-brand Chanel is selling out being sold at Costco at a super discount. {Well, it is only travel size…}

Winter is almost over {does 30 degree mornings and 65 degree afternoons count?} and that means it’s time to bust out the springtime decor!

Glass jars are so versatile + classic and can be used for endless + creative decor possibilities…

{love these nesting bell jars!}

{don’t these bright eggs look festive in these hurricane jars?}

Beautiful photos of a rural New York wedding. If I could have done my wedding any differently, I’d do it like this — outdoors. {Sadly, November + outdoors = an impossible combination}.

{I consider this “perfect” outdoor weather}

{love the little honey jar favors!}
