Nonpareil

From Brooklyn, mydearthing is fantastic indie clothing label designed by Lauren Jones, a former knitwear designer for Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie…{this gal knows her stuff}. All the pieces have great style, and are so wearable!! I love every single piece

There’s a great interview about Lauren on the blog kaKofonie of si(gh)lenS {looks like Lauren and I share the same taste in music…especially kexp.org!}…I suggest you check it out!

These sweet pillows are from Three Red Apples and are made by a French ex-pat living in Devon, UK…I like her mix of vintage, repurposed, and new fabrics as well as the embroidered words {or chickens!!}. And don’t they just scream SPRING?!!

{thanks to  Bettyjoy’s blog for finding these…I just had to share them here too!}

Happy March everyone! Can I tell you how excited I am that Spring is getting close?! I see the light at the end of the {wintery} tunnel…there’s just something about March first!

I love the mix of wood and beads in the bracelets from Musette. Also, her necklaces have a great mix of elements…from chunky stones and beads to cool chains and vintage bits. I especially like the necklace on the top right!

It’s shameless self-promotion time! Thought I’d share my little business with you.

My business partner and I founded our stationery company, Zuzu’s Petals in 2001…and are in the process of moving to Etsy. We just opened shop last week, and are really excited about the move!

My very favorite thing that we make is our note pads {and, so far, it’s the only thing we have on Etsy}. Each pad is designed, printed, cut and glued by hand in our studio…They are only $5.50, and make perfect little gifts for girlfriends, teachers, yoga instructors….or anyone on your list!

We also sell our designs on our Cafe Press site…lots of tees, mugs, water bottles…etc. etc. etc!!

Well, that’s enough about me for now!

LOOK WHAT CAME IN THE MAIL TODAY!!! {can you tell I’m a little excited?!} I ordered the little ballet slipper bag from the fabulous gals at Chria…it’s for my niece…AND, they sent me the adorable tree purse as a sweet surprise! Oh my!!

Everything about the package was cute…the illustrations on the box…the handmade cards…adorable packaging. I’m just blown away at every little detail on their items….Tiny beads, layers of fabric, embellishments galore. Their site just can’t do it all justice. And they are absolutely the sweetest gals, too! Totally made my day!
