DIY:  Wanna join Elycia and Chantilly's Crafternoon? They're making this super cute bike bag!

Etsy: Cutest necklace ever? Yep, cutest necklace ever.

          

Fashion: I'm loving an all white look for spring and summer! via here and here

Art: Moments mean more than material objects.

Fashion:  This article is just lovely, like Mara.  Her style is spot on, plus she has the best job ever!

Art:  Stationary is miniature art that you can share with your friends, right?  These enthusiastic notecards would be a lot of fun to get in the mail.

Shopping:  I just bought this asymmetrical galaxy print skirt from Romwe, and I'm so excited to get it!

For The Home:  These paintings are pretty great, I would love to hang them over my desk like that.

Summer is in full swing already in the South.  This swim suit would be the perfect thing to spend my "spring" break in:  pastels, stripes, ruffles, and bows? Who could ask for more?

This sweet one of a kind heart cross-stitch by Georgica Designs is so sweet!  I love the color scheme and the pattern she created, and who doesn't love a cute heart?

These cloud-shaped macaroons by Carnet Parisiens look almost too good to eat!  Oh, and the sweet rain cloud coasters and paper cut-outs make this photo even sweeter.

I love crochet mushrooms, they are always adorable.  But these mushrooms have a some sweet twine tied to the top to hang them with; oh, imagine the cute decoration possibilities!

These gorgeous woodland animal rings belong on my fingers, ASAP.

I'm sure you've seen this breathtaking runway show by Louis Vuitton for his Spring/Summer 2012 collection, but it really is too perfect to leave off today's list.  The colors, the shapes, the hair, and the carousel, it is all just loveliness in a jar.

I want to spend my summer on the beach in this pretty swimsuit.

Isn't this candy packaging just precious?  I wish I could buy some, if only for the package!

I've always had an affinity for pretty notebooks and big cats, so when you put these two together it's a dream come true!  Plus a portion of every sale of this Sumatran notebook goes to a non-profit environmental organization.

This cat mug just makes me happy.  How can you not feel happy when you look at all their smiling faces?

And finally, this lovely floral frock needs to find it's way to my closet ASAP.
