Cambridge Satchel Company

Hello World- 

I am currently obsessed with this beauty of a leather bag. The size to price ratio is outstanding-- I challenge you to find a high quality leather bag that large for that little of a price. They retail at about $150. I'm thinking I might save up my pennies for one before I go to Spain next spring. It's the kind of bag that weathers well, don't you think?

PS- I also love the brown.

Have an Excellent Weekend.

Hello World--

Unfortunately I have three exams next week, so I will be a busy bee studying like the diligent student I am and not doing a ton this weekend. However, we are having a pancake night tonight! Mind you, pancakes are not just plain, or even chocolate chip pancakes around here. We've made pumpkin chocolate chip pancakes, red-velvet pancakes and tonight we are making "healthy chocolate" pancakes! Enjoy the wonderful weather.

Plus, a few wonderful things from the web.

A mobster's dream.

Jeremy Scott's Fall/Winter 2012 collection.

I could eat a horse.

This brings me back to my childhood. 

Also, I need these.

Calling all Coffee Addicts

Hello World--

This post is dedicated pretty much to my best friend, Kaitlyn. She loves coffee and is doing the 365-well 366 this year- photo project. The project where you take a photo of something everyday for a year. I found this tumblr that is doing a 366 project on his coffee every morning, in addition to the song he listened to whilst drinking that coffee. Interesting and unique idea. I'm excited to see all the coffee mugs!

PS- A documentary about Coffee. The real truth.

Valentine's Day!

 

Hello World-
I know some of you have mixed feelings about this holiday. Some call it the "Hallmark Holiday" or the "Day of Love" or even "Single Awareness Day". Well, whatever you call it I have a few fun links to celebrate the holiday. My favorite part? Awesome care-packages from my sister and mom. Best family ever. Oh, Amy and I are celebrating our S.I.A.L.I (Single Independence and Loving It) tomorrow with the rest of our wing. We're making english muffin pizzas (mine will have plenty of pineapple) and watching Anchorman. "I don't know how to put this, but I'm kind of a big deal". Enjoy your day of love!

Have a good weekend!

Hello World-

I hope you have a delightful weekend. There isn't a ton on my agenda, other than helping Amy find someone to cut her ridiculously long, curly hair. Heidi and Taylor, some of my pals, and I watched Ten Things I Hate About You tonight and I am now in LOVE with Heath Ledger. Anyways, stay warm and enjoy your weekend!

This image reminds me of my best friend who I haven't talked to in like a month!

Ekk! Everlane Promised to Be a Treat

Hello World--

I have to admit, I'm a bit frusterated right now. There is this awesome company called, Everlane, that I'm dying to see their clothing! They cut out the middleman and are exclusively online, quality clothing for very cheap. Why? Because they cut out the middleman they are able to slash prices. There is one catch though, their marketing ploy is genius. They basically said "until you get someone else to sign up you can't even look at our clothes". I say "rude!" I want to see these goods! Sign up here if you want to join me in the chase to find these wonderful pieces of clothing!

Lauren Moffatt

Hello World-

Fashion week Fall 2012 is this week and my tumblr is blown up with a ton of designers collections. I love love love Lauren Moffatt's Fall collect. Find her chic schoolgirl with a touch of whimsical here!

Layna Del Rey

Hello World-

So Amy has been listening to her since we've gotten back and I couldn't for the life of me remember her name and stumbled upon a blog post about her on tumblr. Here is her new album, ready to full stream-- take a listen if you please. She's very indie, very cool. Also, here's her disastrous appearance on SNL. She shall overcome, hopefully.

P.S.- I can't get enough of this song.

Apple Logo Uses Fibonacci Sequence

Hello World--

So, you thought that Apple products were designed by artists who just had impeccable precision and taste? Well, think again. The famous Apple logo was designed using the Fibonacci Sequence-- a series of numbers that start with 0, 1, and the numbers after add together. For instance-- 0,1,1,2, 5,8,13, etc. Not only do they have fabulous taste, but they're good at using useless math sequences. Mind Blown.

Classiest Coke

Hello World-

Remember when the coke use to come in the adorable glass bottles years ago? Well Diane von Furstenberg is bring them back-- well, sort of. She's designed limited edition coke bottle!

Organization!

Hello World-

Amy and I recently decided it would be a blast to triple room with our friend Taylor next fall semester. We are all planning to study abroad next spring semester and figured this would be a great way to practice with the small European closets. Since they are so small I've had organization on the mind. Here are a few fun, clever organization photos I found! 

Have a good weekend! XX
