especially when it involves Tim Riggins.

this week

it’s official. i need a new phone. because while jva can send me this photo from the ski lift in vail. i have to take a one on my camera, find the little usb converter, get to a computer, upload it and email…

DIY stencil pillow. via wit & whistle.

apparently “secret dc” is the name of two different things: a site full of stuff to do in the city AND a drag show bar with male go-go dancers. what a lovely thing to discover while on my WORK COMPUTER.

old barn turned bad ass house. via design mom.

spring couture 2012 is rockin’ the runways. here are a few of my favorites so far: alexandre vauthier. georges hobeika (far right and far left). and as always, everything by elie saab.

i love these heels. although they’d have to be my standing around shoes since i there’s not a chance i’d actually be able to walk in them.

free online MIT courses? nerds rejoice.

dress perfection looks like this.

with an extra 350 dollars i’d definitely be buying one of paul ferney’s paris paintings.

more bob ross. by sapling press.

mini date on the way home from work

kb — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 13:15:56 +0000

Since JVA is going to be away till Monday we went on a little date Tuesday after work. We cook dinner pretty much every night in our house so even splitting a salad at Sweet Green and a pit stop at Circa for a couple cheap drinks is a big deal in our book.

I love their new year’s resolutions post-it wall (despite that fact that most of them were So Painfully DC). My favorite is the one at the bottom. Poor Tim.

everything intern does is awesome

At tonight’s Intern Tuesday, Intern not only fell backwards over his own bike while standing on the sidewalk, but also accidentally tried on a woman’s sweater at Banana Republic. I really can’t explain how funny this was, just to tell you my abs actually hurt from laughing so hard.

while the cat’s away the mouse will play

Which means I’ll be eating dinner standing over the sink every night and watching weird foreign films On Demand.

See you next week, ski bunny.

snow-ish.

kb — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 16:02:14 +0000

Since this weekend’s wintery mix might be the most snow we see this year, I dragged JVA out to Capitol Hill for a quick photo shoot.

Consider yourself lucky you don’t live with me since this is how he often spends his Saturday mornings (i.e. standing around while I take a photo/wishing he was still in bed).

guilty conscience

Is eating 21 blueberry muffins in SIX days and then dreaming about having to go to your high school reunion in a bathing suit. This is your brain. This is your brain after mass muffin consumption.

happy birthday, crystalene!

An oldie but a goodie. Just like you :)
Hope you have a happy one, almost momma.

avery and martha. a match made in attractive office supply heaven.

i love that a woman IN MY GRADUATE CLASS asked me if i was an undergraduate student…

this look from derek lam pre-fall 2012.

linoleum stamp kit!?! perhaps i can rectify my 8th grade art class failure where i accidentally scraped away the wrong parts because paying attention is not my strong suit. (or perhaps i should just work on LETTING THINGS GO.)

CABIN PORN. via unruly things.

shit people in dc say. i can’t tell if this is funny or horrifying. regardless: it’s true.

validation looks like this.

the best remedy when you wake up friday thinking it’s saturday…

kb — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 01:23:40 +0000

…is to dress yourself like a walking rainbow.

(Ok, the real best remedy would be to GET A CALENDAR but this is definitely the runner up).
