disappearing for a bit

Just wanted to let you know I'm off for a romantic long weekend getaway with my husband.  Between my being sick and then having family here visiting, it's been a while since we've been able to really focus on each other.  And as we all know, wonderful relationships aren't made and sustained by magic alone, you've got to really take care of them and consciously celebrate them.  So we thought we'd give ourselves a gift: time.  Time together, time with no distractions, time with no errands and no work and no responsibilities.  Time to be together and just be.  So no posting for me for a few days, I'm sure you'll all understand.  Hope you have a wonderful weekend too!

Loving photographer Denise Grünstein's editorial work.  The stillness is almost palpable.  And it's just so eerily beautiful.

free people shoes

Going through the Free People website, slowly picking out all the things I want and will probably never buy.  Way too many to list in one post, so today we'll just look at the shoes.  How insanely perfect are these little cropped booties?  I don't own any boots that hit that low on the ankle, and I just love the way it looks!

More of my favorites after the jump...

laugh attack

Hysterical laughter is contagious.  I think even those of you who don't speak spanish will enjoy this.  This is from 1994, when after 8 hours of debate the members of the parliament of andalucia were a little punchy. 

for my mama

Happy Mother's Day (again)!



I figured since I'm sending you virtual flowers, I might as well send you an entire field of your favorite!

Love you mama.
