Geometric Shapes

Now you can wear those geometric shapes that remind us all so much of elementary school.

It's Been Awhile


As soon as I saw this picture, it made me realize how much of an art museum craving I've had lately. The funny thing is, I live only a block away from one. So I am making a plan to visit the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art sometime in the next week. Maybe I'll even see something I love enough to post here.

"Animal (Miike Snow cover)" - Javier Dunn

Once I am able to embed an adobe flash player in my posts, then I'll replace this youtube video with that. I just had to post this song on here ASAP. It's quite a find if I do say so myself.

Moleskines: Jordan Kay

When I'm browsing an artist's portfolio, I usually look at their "sketches" folder first. I find that unorganized and unrelated doodling is often the work I enjoy the most. My favorite is when an artist sketches in a Moleskine notebook, especially because I have one myself that I occasionally scribble down great song lyrics in. Expect to see many more future posts on any creative Moleskine sketches I happen to stumble upon!

All That Glitters...

Glitter is the ultimate eye-catcher.
I am falling hard for Steve Madden's "CARYSSAG" pumps in "glitter multi."

For the Love of Bunting

Interior Inspiration: Bunting

I absolutely cannot wait till next year when I'll be back to living in an apartment (or house). For now, my sorority is a great place to live, but I miss having a kitchen I can use and a bedroom to personalize. Hopefully my new roommates will want to decorate our place as much as I do. I'm rather in love with the idea of stringing bunting against a wall. My favorites are cloth ones with mix-matched colors and patterns.

Maxim Dalton

It may not be apparent yet since this blog is still pretty new, but I have a great love for Wes Anderson's films.

I found Maxim Dalton's art when I was looking at some pieces online from the Bad Dads exhibit in San Francisco. The works shown were all tributes to Wes Anderson. As you can imagine, Dalton's "The Royal Tenenbaums" posters caught my eye instantly. I'm so very tempted to buy the print below titled "111 Archer Ave" for my room.

Brook Weeber



I love Portland shout-outs! Brook Weeber, the artist of this intricate sketch is believe it or not, from Portland. I tend to be drawn to lots of art that contains many detailed repetitive lines within a picture. If you like that plus the look of soft watercolor and perhaps the appearance of animals, then check this lady out.

Keep Calm and Ride On

What a game, last night! Auburn won the National Championship by a field goal, ending the game at a score of 22-19. Boys, we were so darn close! I'm so proud to be a duck still, because making it this far was one of the greatest events in my college experience. So while we didn't conquer our last game like we did the Pac-10, at least we put up the biggest fight! So it's now the day after, and the best thing to do is "Keep Calm and Carry On." However, a more Eugene way to say that would be:

The Natty is Finally Here!

Today's the day! The BCS National Championship game is going to be on TV soon, and my Oregon ducks are playing the Auburn tigers in Glendale, Arizona. C'mon University of Oregon, let's make history! And as Chip Kelly says, WIN THE DAY!!!

Here's to hoping Puddles will get to do a victory heel click when the game's over.

Marco Suarez



The photos above are the works of Marco Suarez, a photographer based in Greenville, South Carolina. I love the simple spin he put on landscape photographs by framing his in a circle. These are perfect as wall decor for many different home styles, so visit his Etsy!

I miss December already, and this creative short film just makes me want to chase it for a little while longer.

Big Horse Brew Pub

Last winter break, Andrew and I drove up to Hood River and had lunch at 3 Rivers Grill, which was very nice and I highly recommend it. This time however, we wanted to go somewhere more casual and honestly, somewhere with a good burger and fries. So it was easy to spot Big Horse Brew Pub because it sits just up the hill in a three story house. The seating is on the top floor, offering a wonderful view of downtown and the river. Friendly service, delicious food, and there was even a stage for performing right above us. I'd love to come back here on a night where there's live music.
