day 19

I stumbled upon this website by Jeremy & Claire Weiss, day 19. Wonderful photographs, I had to jack them to put on here. Please visit them and look at everything, especially Claire's sketchbooks.

The photo second from the bottom is Jenny Lewis of Rilo Kiley (also of The Wizard and Troop Beverly Hills) and is my #1 girl crush of the millennium.

Built by Awesome

I'm usually pretty underwhelmed by Built by Wendy's stuff but this new Spring 2010 collection is singing my name. Love the little white printed tee with the slouchy pants and the turquoise and black striped dress especially. Also the utilitarian coat in beautiful deep forest green and the little Frenchy black and white outfit. Everything so easy and comfy!
