What I'm Crushing On this Week

So many times I have things I want to share with you that might now warrant an entire post so I've decided to occasionally share with you things that I've gotten and love, or something I would love to get, or even just something I think you will enjoy. It could be a new product, website, blog or anything. It will definitely be something I'm crushing on.

The possibility of winning this giveaway at one of my favorite new blogs. Kasey rocks. I'm newly inspired every time I visit her. This girl has style in spades.

These vintage pictures I recently bought at the Etsy shop, From the Pines. You can find more here. She has great prices and as a bonus, she's a sweetie to work with.

This book that I recently read. I loved every single beautiful word of it and it made me almost physically ache to be in France. I will read it again and again and there aren't many books I can say that about.

This light from Marston & Langinger. At $425, I totally can't afford it but maybe you can. If not, dreaming is free, right?

  8. I can see why you love the necklace, me too! I totally can see why you love the light fixtures, everyone should have light fixtures that kind of match their fire hydrants. :-) wink! The pictures are cool, everything you do is cool!! I have to go check out your friend's blog now or I would post longer. :-) have a blessed weekend!!!
