Taco and Chico Send Their Love

Just dropping this note to say that I miss blogging. I miss visiting your blogs and miss updating mine. I hope to resume in two weeks, post midterms. See you then. :)

Sunday Flicks: Whistling Past the Graveyard

I've been eagerly anticipating Lula's arrival at my local Border's Books. I visit the book store religiously every week, and each time, I'm disappointed. The chances of it arriving are pretty slim at this point and I'm finally resigned to that.

Anyhow, I visited Lulamag.com the other day and they have links to some videos they've produced. One of them was about the fabulous artist, Mercedes Helnwein. I urge you to watch it. You can see the clip when you follow a link from Lulamag.com entitled Dark Star. Unfortunately, there are no direct links to this clip, so I'm leaving you with another clip called Faking It, directed by Mercedes Helnwein herself.

Dress Me Up in My Love: The Golden One

Emma Pillsbury Collage by The August One

I was reading this tribute to Emma Pillsbury by Caitlin from The August One. Inspired by Emma's style, Caitlin created this pretty in pink, teal, and yellow Polyvore collage. The colors in the collection complement each other really well and I'm particularly drawn to the golden mustard sweater.

The Golden Sweater

Admittedly, though the placement of the sequins looks a bit strange, even garish, I love the sweater. Or perhaps, I simply adore the color, reminding me of our old home, which I terribly miss. Sniff. Either way, the sweater is fabulous. As my homage to that golden sweater, I'm going to share with you all the collections that include it.
