Gift Guide 2012

It's that time again. Are you having trouble finding the prefect gift for someone, or telling that someone what to get you? Here are a few reasonable and freaking awesome gifts.

'Nuff Said

Dip-Dye iPad Case

Probably the first blog I started reading religiously-Eat.Live.Run.

Her book is out and it's a must read.

Because I love BaubleBar and this is kind of a twist on the "Carrie" necklace a la Sex and the City.

If you saw my key ring you would know it's in need of an update. I think I have a couple of Kroger plus cards, Walgreens, CVS, oh and a gym membership card to somewhere I haven't been since high school. Time to purge the key ring.

I love these DVF coasters. I have kind of started a collection around the house-I'm just forever planning on hosting some awesome party with 200 people and then getting really anal and putting one of these under everyone's drink. Cheers!

I could see some friends and I having way too much fun with something like this. 

A decorative urchin. To add some pizazz to your place!

Happy Shopping!

Arabian Nights

I have developed a love for all types of textiles (did I mention I'm from the Carpet Capital), especially those with Moroccan, Arabic, and Middle Eastern influence. Their patterns and use of bright colors are unlike any other, and I think it's safe to say that these designs are here to stay. It doesn't just stop with rugs and blankets. From frames to art and tunics to poufs, this is no trend that will be going out of style.
