Madsen Cargo Bikes



Madsen Cargo Bikes are fantastic. I just think if I had one of these babies getting groceries would be much easier, and hell if I had kids, who needs a stroller!

Сергей Константинович Панкеев


'
I dreamt that it was night and that I was lying in bed. (My bed stood with its foot towards the window; in front of the window there was a row of old walnut trees. I know it was winter when I had the dream, and night-time.) Suddenly the window opened of its own accord, and I was terrified to see that some white wolves were sitting on the big walnut tree in front of the window. There were six or seven of them. The wolves were quite white, and looked more like foxes or sheep-dogs, for they had big tails like foxes and they had their ears pricked like dogs when they pay attention to something. In great terror, evidently of being eaten up by the wolves, I screamed and woke up. My nurse hurried to my bed, to see what had happened to me. It took quite a long while before I was convinced that it had only been a dream; I had had such a clear and life-like picture of the window opening and the wolves sitting on the tree. At last I grew quieter, felt as though I had escaped from some danger, and went to sleep again.'- Sergei Pankejeff

Cockroaches


Sometimes I don't know how we manage, but we manage. I wish I would remember that when things get sticky, I always forget. Thank you M.

Mimosa and Lucite


Check out this office space designed by Madrid-based architecture firm Selgas Cano. I would do any lousy data-entry job for a space like this. Found at http://www.casasugar.com/home?page=6

Autumn Groom



Also corresponds to the board. Make those shoes a little more 'chestnut-y' and add a little acorn on that lapel and this would be perfect.

Autumn Bridesmaids




Corresponds to the board below. All from JCrew.com.

New Weddding Idea: Acorns


I came up with an inspiration board of my own taking into account my favorite colors and Maciek's as well. It's not perfect but it gets the idea across, I think? Maybe this will happen after I move up to D.C.. All images sourced from JCrew.com, hellolucky.com, and Martha Stewart Weddings.

I already miss autumn


If I didn't live in Florida, and I could get away shipping everyone up for a nice rustic autumn wedding, it would look something like this. I might have to put it off anyways...we'll see. I'm trying not to be so cynical, but I'm having trouble seeing the light of things for the past few days. Will things work out for the best? Board credits: http://alovelymorning.blogspot.com

Alec Soth



An old exhibit from the National Portrait Gallery in D.C.. Nice...

I didn't want to turn this into a journal, but just once. So, money's a problem lately, I don't know if I can afford anything I've planned. The wedding now seems so far off (and almost impossible), amidst other problems like plane tickets/hotel for my defense in PL/CZ, internship, car, appropriate work clothes, and a possible relocation. Will I be able to sell me jewelry? I may need a temporary job or something after my defense, god knows.

Yosemite




Yosemite Falls...folky acoustic guitars, khaki tents, campfires and marshmellows, woodland moose paraphernalia, red flannels, tinned beans, buckwheat pancakes and natural syrup, salmon cakes, honey beer, and always talking about lovin' America.

Navajo stylin'



Ralph Lauren I will never pay the amount of money you are asking for these beautiful garments....I have been wanting a Navajo poncho and/or wrap sweater for two years, but these are just waaaay overpriced, I'll get mine from the original source.

WPA posters



These Depression-era posters hit the nail on the head. Download here: http://readymade.com/article/poster_children/P2/

Bridesmaids


Oh how I love yellow, especially those deep golds and mustards, like an Almalfi lemon. This goddess style dress would be lovely with some nice jewelry in apricot, cream, and gold enamel and some embellished sandals. Dress from Anthropologie.com.

Lilly Pulitzer




I'm not usually a fan of her clothes, but these could be quite cute. All from the Lilly Pulitzer online shop.
