Five things I'm obsessed with.

1. My new phone case (c/o) from Splendid and Spark. It's too stinking cute! I'm a sucker for anything personalized, so I went with the arrowhead design, and style one for the font. Splendid and Spark offers tons  of adorable things, including tons of different notepads (awesome for people like me, who love all things paper!), fabulous prints, cards for all occasions and so much more. The chickie behind the store, Megan built it all from the ground up (impressive!) and is super sweet. Make sure to check out Splendid and Spark next time you need to buy a gift.




2. Everything by K. Slademade.  Kelsea offers gorgeous handmade leather goods that are as high in quality as any other designer bag I've ever owned. (Yeah - I'm talking on par with Marc Jacobs. No joke.)  I recently bought her adorable cork clutch and am obsessed with it!! Is it weird that I've planned my outfits around the bag?? No? I didn't think so....


3. My new favorite summer shows. Junk Gypsies and Cajun Justice. Try not to laugh too hard at Cajun Justice...it's kind of amazing. It's sent in the bayou of Louisiana is basically their version of Cops. I'm constantly amazed by all the alligators EVERYWHERE!! Alligators to the bayou are like squirrels to the Bay Area I guess. Anyone from that area?? I'm fascinated. Junk Gypsies is a super cute show on HGTV about two sisters who go around finding stuff at flea markets and thrift stores, re-purposing it and re-decorating rooms. Love!


4. River & Bridge. Heather, the creative mastermind of River & Bridge makes the most gorgeous invitations and stationery. I love everything she does, and am especially in love with her French macaron thank you cards!


5. Filthy Farmgirl. I discovered this brand (of all places) at the ABC Store in Hawaii. I was instantly drawn in by the fun retro-inspired packaging and clever names, but the quality of the products is what has me hooked. I picked up a few things, including a fabulous almond chapstick (really only bought it because there was a squirrel on the package) and a couple of fun soaps.


What are you loving right now?? Any specific products or shops? Leave links in the comment section so we can all check it out!

    I love my new iPad 3 that my hubs got me for Mother's Day...I don't have a smart phone so taking photos out and about was a drag...with my iPad 3 I can actually post current pictures on my blog! LOVE IT!

    And then I found out about Kaboo bags and OMG...I love my Olivia in Turquoise...GINORMOUS HEART! I love the way it protects my iPad! Perfectly perfect. www.kaboobags.com

    I just ordered some new specs from www.firmoo.com too...SO excited to see how those come in...trendy and bifocals...(ugh, the horror!) and the first pair is free for single vision lenses so that rocks!

    Thanks for letting me share!

    My 12 year old loves Cajun Justice. We're from a little further north Louisiana, but we still get our share of gators!
