hello there! this weekend has been crazy. a lot of unexpected things happened and so i haven't been able to keep my blog schedule, but i wanted to let you all know that i will do my "oh you pretty things" post tomorrow and also this week i have an adorable little diy project that i will be sharing with you too. hope you had a great weekend and hope you have a super week.

this week flew by. i can't believe it's already thursday. i have to do a major sleep make-over. i think i am going to give myself a bedtime. i feel like i'm twelve saying that, but i need to catch a lot more zzz's.
i am l-o-v-i-n-g pete yorn and scar jo's collaboration.
a lot of people don't care for scarlett as a singer but i personally do. i like her deep dark voice. i think it's unique and a little mysterious. i love their new video 'realtor'. what do you think???
i seriously LOVE it.
yes, i am drooling over anna sui's spring 2010 collection.
there are many many more looks that i could post but then i might as well post the whole fashion show. but these were among my favorites. i love the colors, miss matched patterns and layering. drool.
and i am extremely, incredibly, oh-so jealous of this...
my friend elsie just picked it up this week for her studio and if she wasn't one of my friends i might consider robbing her. ha! i have been on the hunt for a yellow formica table and chair set for the past 6 years. found a few, one was ridiculously over priced and the other two were in terrible, horrible, no good, very bad condition. ughhh... so jealous that it huwts. my kitchen and i are crying. ;)
okay. i have to get ready for a dinner & coffee date with my friend kirby. have a lovely day.
xoxo.

monday morning is here.
i have a lot of things on the to-do list for this week. most of them are work related, like working on the new bleubirdvintage.com, updating the new etsy shop and blogging. along with piles of laundry and dusting. i really dislike dusting but i think monday is going to be my new 'dust it' day. along with my hard work, i am going to reward myself this week with a new feather tattoo, (i'm loving the feathers on the little top i am wearing in the photo above) and i'm also planning on doing some fun house projects and re-arranging furniture etc. one diy yourself project i am extremely excited about this week is this...
the over sized graphic sign on the wall. a brilliant and super simple project done by amanda. she bought a large, thin piece of plywood and covered it with vinyl stickers, spray painted it black, removed stickers and done. an affordable little project with a big result. i am doing one this week for sure. maybe 2 of them.
p.s. to hang she just drilled the sign directly into the wall. brilliant!
here's a little peek at the rest of her adorable bedroom. one thing i have always done ever since i became a 'grown up' was to neglect my bedroom and i am tired of it. i would love nothing more than to create a little secret retreat that is mine all mine that i can escape to and relax in every night. so inspiring!
another thing i must do this week is...
it's been awhile since i've chatted with them so i think i will squeeze in some much needed phone time. oh my, the phone is ringing and it's my papa! time to go.
have a great monday & a lovely week.
xoxo.
