Because at $39.50, I do believe I love these shoes.

Friday Flickr Five

stack of magazines, september 2009 | simple pretty

Another week filled with perfect late-summer weather, and a stack of September magazines. A girl could get used to this. I have a lot of reading (and “research”) to do, so

On with the Five:

  1. lifeguard
  2. Fleeing From an Eagle
  3. untitled
  4. untitled
  5. sparkly too.

Hope your weekend is full of sparkle. My buddy returns tomorrow night after a week away, touring DC + environs with his grandparents. I cannot wait to see his smiling face.

See you Monday.

If you’re looking for calling cards, happygirlgreetings has oodles of fun choices that are truly simple + pretty. And you can’t beat the price: a set of 100 for $20. (I’m smitten with the snail this morning!)

La Fromagerie

I’m a big fan of virtual travel (that I hope someday to make actual travel). The latest addition to that list is London’s La Fromagerie. Totally charming. I envision having a nice breakfast at the Tasting Cafe and then perusing the shelves …. or perhaps a wine/cheese tasting. Who else is in? In the meantime, I think I’ll pick up founder Patricia Michelson’s book, The Cheese Room.

Byrd & Belle

Serendipity (also know as perusing Uppercase Gallery’s etsy favorites) has led me to the perfect felt laptop sleeve. Just what I’ve been looking for, by Byrd & Belle. (Also available without the leather grip at the bottom.)
