bonnie et clyde.

75 years ago today...

i've lately become obsessed with bonnie & clyde... the romanticism, the fashion (from the film, of course), serge gainsbourg and brigitte bardot's song.

here's some parker & barrow-inspired fashion. note the scarf.

p.s. a different outlaw, but i am dying to see public enemies about john dillinger. christian bale, billy crudup, johnny depp and marion cotillard? sign me up, thanks.

peggy wolf.

i'd love to own these prints from peggy wolf. in fact, i'd love to have an entire wall of these type of prints (such as this and this).

i hope everyone's memorial day weekend is one to remember. i'll have family (babies!) in town plus plan on a trip to the paseo arts festival. other than that, i have a whole lot of nothing to do. i'm excited about that. oh, and i'll be watching the gossip girl finale finally. thank god.

p.s. i'm thinking it's about time for a swap. but i have no idea what to do? something inexpensive. postcards? postage? summer scarf? i kind of like summer scarf. what do you think about that?

mysterio at wry baby.

ha. hilarious.

thanks, black*eiffel. this is a true discovery.

print liberation.

sweet for summer, don't you think?

i am a fan of print liberation, though some of it is a little too disgruntled hipster for me. otherwise, brilliant.

summer comfort.

i spied this top over at roberta jane's camp comfort and couldn't get it out of my head. i love that she suggested pairing it with a floral skirt but i couldn't help imagine it with some white denim.

what would you wear it with? feel free to make your own ensemble. but don't forget to tell me if you post it on your blog.

may yang.

i fell in love with the work of tulsan may yang back in march at the annual momentum art show here in oklahoma city. sadly, i had forgotten all about this print until i uploaded photos off my poor neglected camera tonight.

don't you just love the colors? i'd love to own it but i fear it's long gone. maybe she'll add some more prints to her shop? yes, miss may, please do.

king & queen of hearts stamps.

ooh, ahh.

good monday morning!

we drove to tulsa saturday to see the old 97s. great show, despite an unusually cold and windy may night. rhett miller looks amazing for 38 (38!), and murray hammond also caught my eye/ear.

don't you want it?

sweet jesus, i do. i'll take the hair, too.

mopshots.

the most perfect hair ever?

might be.

sometimes you just want to look like a piece of art.

p.s. i've always wanted to look like this sweet girl.

p.p.s. thanks for all your input on my monday morning question. you are all too sweet and supportive.

atlantik.

my heart skipped a beat. did yours?

who wants to buy this font for me?

until then, font specimen, i love you.

so i fell down the stairs (flip flops + rain = not smart) a couple weeks ago and apparently hurt my neck. that means i've been really unpleasant for the better part of two weeks. i haven't gotten good sleep*, and i've had constant headaches from the pressure.

this woe-is-me story is pertinent because: i have relied on a bed buddy (who knew they still made those?), a hot water bottle and an ice pack for most of that time.

here's where it actually gets pertinent: i think i would have felt a thousands times better with cute little guy's warm comfort. lavender and wheat... puts me to sleep just thinking about it. check more of these 'hot dogs' (ha you KNOW i love that) out at the recently launched, glasgow-based shop showpony. and enter code helloshowpony at checkout for 15 percent off. thank you, showpony!


*hence the missed post wednesday and two very rambly posts today.

cheap glasses.

i really was not supposed to spend any money on anything ever again, but these sweet specs were the right price and i had had my eye on them for too long. best part? under $25 ($12.95 for frames + $7 for lenses + $5 for anti-reflective coating).

i'm no expert, but if you feel like you're stuck with your $300 pair of glasses and want a change, i'd recommend it. i've only bought this one other pair, but i had good luck. wished i had gotten the anti-reflective coating and they slip a little on my nose (i think any optometrist will fix that for you), but the quality is fine. i had them checked out at my last eye appointment, and the rx was spot on. joe recently got a pair, too. he wasn't jazzed about the quality but he looks really good in them, so i'm not complaining.

yes, all the sites are jank and the follow-up e-mails are hardly in english, but glasses are glasses. and it's nice to have a couple options from day to day.

still got questions? check these links out.

mimi woo.

mika78 by mimi woo. can't get over the sweet details.

check out the color profile creative holly color did of mimi yesterday. nice & serene.

wayne pate.

kind of love this, by wayne pate.

via design crush.

thanks to all who responded to my monday morning question.

happy monday.

today, i really feel like i need these. do you think they're too... rugged? because i really love them.

also, these and these (gladiator + hurache? hurrah).

but my heart still aches for this sweet blue pair.

also, a monday morning question. you've noticed the blog's been a little schizo lately. blog post titles here today, gone tomorrow, and back again. fewer 'go buy this now' posts and more 'isn't this photo lovely' posts. did you enjoy it more when the blog was more consumer-driven? i get kind of depressed blogging about store-bought things and have tried to venture into more inspiring things. is that ok with you? or should i go back to my greedy ways? tell me, readers, what do you think?

bees'netta.

i already mentioned the brilliance behind the bags of bees'netta (vintage designs and nomadic behavior!), but today i stumbled across the day labourer. and i positively adore it. and i might be saving up to make it my european carryall. what do you think? what color would i get?

slowly getting caught up on what i've missed this week...

dare i say boho perfection?

really, really cool.

chanel no. 5 mini film featuring audrey tatou and directed by jean-pierre jeunet. [via black*eiffel and the entire blogosphere]

a pretty picture for you.

will be back to regular posting soon. i have a neck thing and could use some 'sixteen candles'-strength muscle relaxants if anyone's got any.

via here.

so hopefully none of you has noticed that i've been so busy lately, i've just gone to etsy and picked the first cute thing i saw.

case in point for today. could make for some really great cake toppers.

i'll try to be back soon with some actual discoveries.

today is a day for this.

via mrs. french.

now i am going to go back to sleep. many thanks to the new downstairs neighbor who left delilah (yes) on all night long for his dog.

kind of sweet.

charlie bartlett. obsessed with it.

also obsessed with a kid six years my junior. can you blame me?

kelly at design crush recently started a 3 to see series, which has introduced some new-to-me faves every friday.

she was kind enough to include greedy girl in the honors two weeks ago, and i was beyond excited. i like being honored!

i recommend you check it out! and, thanks again kelly.

happy may day!

would really, really love to have this from a alicia.

on a similar note, katie did posted a tutorial for the unbelievable flower collars she did for her daughters. as usual, my mind is blown. (i tell her a lot i am obsessed with her lovely family and her super talents and their sweet brooklyn life, and it is completely true. i hope i am not creepy. hm.)

um, yes, please.

tucker by gaby basora via camp comfort.

one of my favorites.

still busy. i'll be back to chatty soon.

i would die if these belonged to me. i love that she's not afraid to wear them.

(this blog will make you hate your job, your shoes and the people who have the job you should have and the shoes you should own. thanks to k at blog goggles, who with one blog post has me re-evaluating my entire life.)

enjoy, thanks to darling, darling.

it's a busy week for me, but i can at least provide you some colorful eye candy.

oh lauren moffatt, i want it all.
