The Great Gatsby


I mean. I could just die. How gorgeous are these? If you haven't heard Baz Luhrmann is helming the latest film adaptation of The Great Gatsby. Leonardo DiCaprio is aesthetically killing it as Gatsby. Carey Mulligan looks so chic as Daisy. I really think that capturing the look of a novel is an important part of a successful film and they are truly getting it right here.

Flawless.

Lulu & Drew

Recently we hung up a lot of our art. It changed the whole vibe of the apartment and instantly made things feel lived-in. However, it also brought to light walls that need attention. We have a frequently used bar cart with a lot of dead white wall space above it. I'd like to fill it with this piece from Lulu & Drew.



Cool no? Also, they do a bunch of ikat style paintings. Love.



Maybe JECIV will let me pair them up?

Check out more Lulu & Drew here on etsy.

Pioneer Woman Cooks via Some Pink Salt

This is what JECIV and I had for dinner. This and some unfortunate salmon that I'll hear about for a while. Anyway, this was the star. It take two seconds to make and is so delicious and comforting after a stressful day. That's the power of cured meat people. It saves lives.

Pioneer Woman Cooks is an excellent resource for meals like this and her Milky Way Cake is a HUUUUGE hit at barbecues. Huge. You should make it for one. People will like you more.

Olsen Love.

Like all 24 year old girls that are worth their salt, I love the Olsens. I especially love Ashley. I really extra love this outfit. Sidenote: I want the Givenchy Nightingale Satchel to be my baby bag when I have need for a baby bag. Right now I'd like to be wearing this and getting coffee instead of feeling sick.
