Clementines.

Well it is a wintry mess (again!) here in the north east 

& to me, this lil' illustration couldn't be more true...

{ Originally spotted on You Are My Fave  created by artist, Dan Meth }

Have a happy day!

Back to the 20's.

My oh, my! 

These photographs make me so, so happy! 

{ Spotted on The Sartorialist }

I should've been born in the 20's... 

But since I wasn't, maybe I should just try my hand at 

becoming friends with all these awesome people who 

were hanging out at The Jazz-Age Dance Party, no?!

Procrastination.

Hello my name is Ashley & you don't know 
this about me but I am a chronic procrastinator. 

So of course when I saw this lil' animated video all 
about procrastination by John Kelly, I totally related...

A Love Letter For You.

Have you heard about The Love Letter Project or perhaps

spotted some of the murals throughout Philadelphia? 

Oh my, I just love it! What a creative & absolutely fabulous idea...

Amazing right?

 It is literally a love letter painted on the walls facing the Market elevated train in Philadelphia.

Created by Steve Powers, Love Letter was designed & painted by 40 local 

& international artists & is on display for everyone to enjoy!

For more on the project including a map of all the locations 

the murals are painted head on over to the project's site.

Pssst. If you aren't lucky enough to reside in or around Philadelphia to check

 the project out yourself,  you can always buy the book featuring the murals right here.

All The Time Actually.

{ Via designismine }

Yes for me, it isn't just sometimes it is ALL. THE. TIME actually.

How about you?

Tee Hee.

This made both The Husband & I laugh. out. loud.

Missed Connections II.

There have been some pretty great illustrated Missed Connections as of late. 

Have you checked them out? Here are some of my favorites... 

{ "It was windy and pouring rain last night, and you were looking for directions in the East Village. 

You were wet and cold, so I gave you my umbrella. Unfortunately, I later discovered that I gave you

 the wrong directions and I feel just awful about it. I hope you and your friends got to your 

destination without too much trouble." }

You can check out one of my other favorites here 

& be sure to check out artist Sophie Blackall's shop!

Creature Comforts.

This photograph melts my heart & considering I can hear the birds singing 

outside my window right now it melts it even more!

I  originally spotted this beauty over on Creature Comforts  (which is one of my favorite blogs)

I think it is pretty cool that this photograph sort of defines the title of the "Creature Comforts" don't you?

I then swiftly followed the links to photographer Tracie Swift's flickr stream & let me just tell you - WOW!

xoxo

Do you know?

I think that would be YOU!

Thanks for stopping by & reading...

YOU ROCK!

Today.

I would really like to be doing this...

{ Via } 

Hanging out with one of my favorite friends, enjoying the weather-

the pops of green that are slowly showing up everywhere 

& enjoying the feel of the sun & crisp air on my skin. 

Lovely!

But instead I will be inside- spring cleaning, organizing & starting to pack. 

Oh well, a girl can daydream right?

Lil' Birdies.

Aren't these lil' birdie ceramic vases by J. Mendicino just darling?

I love them & totally want one or more of each to adorn our new kitchen.

They are just so cheerful & fun... they make me smile!

My Brain.

I mean it, I really feel like this totally describes me...  how bout' you?

Seriously, I named my blog due to lyrics that were stuck in my head at the time!

tee hee hee

Feelin' a bit blah.

I am not feeling like myself today, scratch that the past two days

 & I'm not entirely sure why...

So I am trying to remember this cute little saying-

Weird.

I *heart* this...

It sounds like something The Husband would say to me

tee hee hee

Missed Connections.

This Missed Connection is great...

& isn't it awesome that Sophie Blackall 

illustrates them in such a super cute way!?

" Thursday, January 14, 2010 -m4w - 28

Not only did you introduce me to the wonderful world of knitting, 

I quickly found myself smitten with you after chatting for a few minutes. 

Despite you mentioning you had a boyfriend, I can only hope he is terminally ill 

so that I'll get a shot at knitting something for you one day. You were one of the 

warmest people I've met on a subway at 2am, and a reminder why I love this city."

2010 Baby.

When I found these photos on a friends blog I couldn't stop smiling.

Check her out -  I mean could she be any Cooler!? 

Sweeter!? Awesomer!? UBER Fabulouser!?
