our terrarium has a new plant. isn't it cute? I hope it flowers soon.

I really try to wear bright colors. really, I do. but my heart belongs with grey, black, white, brown, and lighter shades in between. I really love these neutral looks from J. Crew.

that he reads my mind and brings me kombucha. I'd been craving it all morning, and what do ya know, dlb shows up at my office with a bottle of Guava Goddess. love that guy. and kombucha. seriously, I'm totally hooked. our kombucha habit is an expensive one and I've tried to cut back, really. but it's so darn good.

I've been wanting to try making my own. has anyone made their own kombucha? if so, what were your experiences? I'd love to know.

one of the things on my list is to clean out my closet. I've been doing it in baby steps, but I've still got a long way to go. but good news for you! that means I've updated my ebay shop with lots of great things. check them out!

beautiful new things for fall from lina rennell. how amazing is that color?

seems like all I can think about these days is wearing my summer dresses. with sandals. no cardigan. and no tights. sigh... these cute dresses from the A.P.C. summer collection are exactly what I want to wear right now.

when browsing through my bookmarks folder, I can't help but stop on the beautiful work of Christopher David Ryan, each time. there is something about this poster that I love so much.

I just posted some new custom blog headers and logo designs on the Seventy and Sunny blog.

I mentioned before that I've been working on a number of really exciting projects and the first one debuted yesterday. the lovely Lisa of Pigeon Toe Ceramics contacted me about a month ago wondering if I'd be interested in collaborating with her on some hand painted ceramics and of course I jumped at the opportunity. if you've seen her work, then you'd probably jump at the chance too. her ceramics are beautiful organic pieces including tuck puts and bud vases.
the first piece from our collaboration is now up for sale in a very small quantity in the Pigeon Toe Ceramics shop. look for more pieces from myself and more Portland artists soon!

...consisted of lots of delicious home cooked meals and celebrations.
what about yours?

I can feel it.
I can see it.
I can smell it.
and I can feel the newness that it brings.

spring is in the air. happy first day of spring and happy friday my friends.

I stopped by my friend Lisa's studio last night and she showed me her most recent purchase and ever amazing Fox in Mociun ink blot/fox pup shirt. could these two artists be any more amazing together? I can't wait to see more.
{from mociun}

really, I do. now if only I had an excuse to indulge on these two wonderful dresses...
{from frances may}

how cute is Amy's new jewelry collection?
p.s. have you seen Baker's Dozen?
{from tummy ache}

Roberta Jane got me thinking about sandals. when summer finally makes it's way around, I sure hope these babies can work their way into my budget.
{from frye, of course}

I like this journal a lot.

I couldn't be more thrilled to introduce the newest sponsor to Unruly Things, dace. I'm pretty sure that they don't need much introduction if you've been following my blog for awhile, but I'm happy to include dace among the other wonderful sponsors here. I've loved the style of designer Dace Moore for quite some time now and I've loved watching them grow. if you are not familiar with dace yet, please check out their shop. I'm sure you'll be in love.

as always, if you are interested in advertising on Unruly Things, please contact me and I'll send you a media kit with our advertising specs! the prices are just right for small business and shops.

another swoon-worthy ebay shop. I pretty much love everything. including the model's amazing hair.

morelle is one of those etsy shops that I visit quite often. I love the gorgeous choices of leather and pretty silhouettes. Katie, the lovely designer behind morelle, just added a bunch of fresh colors and styles to her shop today and I'm in love.
{from morelle}

I adore this skirt from Lauren Moffat's spring collection, especially how it's paired with a simple white tee and multi-strand necklace.
I love a good basic tee. my favorite combo is with jeans of course, and my hair pulled back with a fancy necklace or dangling earrings. what about you? how do you wear basic tees?
{from lauren moffatt}

a few weeks ago, The Lovely Package was one of my top recommendations from google reader and I've been obsessed ever since. I'm always a sucker for pretty packaging and this entire blog is dedicated to just that. amazing, right?
{from the lovely package}

pretty earrings from Portland local Anna Korte. nothing beats jewelry made from vintage materials.
{from ak vintage}

my little fingers have been:
painting.
brewing up some wonderful goodness to share with you soon.

all I can think about is:
sleeveless dresses
sandals and
shorts.

I'm excited to:
enjoy the weekend... even if it is going to rain.
