Is it possible that my hair could look remotely similar to Karla’s here if I were to cut it short? Dangerous. Maybe I’ll just obsess over the adorable vintage-inspired frocks on her blog — like this to-die-for number from my favorite, Shareen Vintage — before I get ahead of myself.

A new fashion blog about friends mixing up similar clothing pieces in different, awesome ways? We love it! And we love it even more because the adorable Eyvette, one of the co-founders of One Thing Two Ways, is a dear friend of mine and Kim’s. She always looks chic and cute when we see her, so it’s only fitting the rest of the world gets to see her outfits, too! Yay.
You guys know how I’m obsessed with goofy animal art – and, let’s face it, goofy art in general. Just the other day, I was this close [ ] to buying a gigantic blue oil painting of two bunnies in a field.
I can’t even describe the level of joy I found from these masterpieces by Chris McMahon, who, as I’m told by the ladies at Hello Giggles, paints these funny monsters into landscape art he finds at thrift stores.
I’ve already purchased the narwhal and the mountain monster pictured above. Only $10 including shipping! I couldn’t resist.
And while I’m on the topic, Hello Giggles is the best! How did I just now discover it? I especially loved this post by 13-year-old Mikaela Foster, who is already a much better writer than me and describes my junior high/high school sentiments to a “T”.
WHEN I'M LOOKING FOR MY PHONE.
Just when I think I’m pretty funny/creative, someone goes and does something like this. Absolutely hilarious.

Modern Hepburn is one of my favorite blogs ever–it’s filled to the brim with happy photos, whimsical photos, nostalgic photos, and romantic photos, all with an emphasis on the beautiful details of daily life. I’d highly recommend bookmarking it and trying not to visit it all day long. :)
Have a great weekend, everyone! xx
The blogsophere is abuzz about Roost and with good reason: incredible photos, thoughtful quotes, and irresistible recipes make for a delightful site that’s hard not to come back to again and again. Everything just looks so darn beautiful! And to top it all off, the recipes are all an adventure in gluten/grain/sugar/dairy-free cooking by the lovely Coco.
p.s. another gorgeous food blog.
Celeste and I were talking the other night about the trials and tribulations of become a vegetarian. And I have to say, if the recipes on So Good And Tasty are any indication of the vegetarian lifestyle, I’m in.
I scrolled through the site for about half an hour trying to decide which recipes to feature on this posting – simply because they all looked incredibly good. (Warning: do not visit So Good And Tasty on an empty stomach. Mine was growling.) Don’t even get me started on the desserts.

Now that I have the pleasure of visiting Celeste and “the boy” at their new digs in Downtown LA, I’m becoming more and more enamored with the food scene there. The problem is I get almost all of my leads from the boy, who gets almost all of his from a coworker. Celeste is starting to think I’m this all-knowing foodie because it just so happens that every time we’ve met up in LA, I’ve taken her to a different restaurant of the total five that I know. ;)
So thank goodness for the twin sister bloggers who run Potatomato, which has excellent reviews of a ton of hip Downtown restaurants, including one I’ve been dying to try called KTCHN 105. Now, I know many of you are probably screaming, “Why not Yelp?” at your computers right now. And the reason is that it’s too overrun by reviews that start with something like, “I’ve never had Mexican food before, but this place looked interesting …”
Potatomato seems to have exactly what I’m looking for down to an art. Plus they post about travel destinations, which makes me want to call them up to see when we can all get together in Turkey for a meal. I’ve heard Istanbul is beautiful in September!

One of the joys (or maybe embarrassing facts) of working at a NASA center is that you can really let your geek flag fly. That’s why I’m proud to say I think this blog is amazing. Blogger Stéfan arranges a pair of Stormtrooper figurines in hilarious scenes and snaps “candid” shots of their mundane lives. He’s shooting one photo each day for 365 days, so there’s plenty to laugh at!

What are you guys up to this weekend? I haven’t done one of these Happy Thursday posts in a while and thought I’d bring it back! This weekend, I’ll be seeing our very own Kim tonight for dinner at WoodSpoon (our obsession) and then the next couple of days are filled with dinner parties for friends and then a very special dinner with the family for Father’s Day on Sunday. So…I’ll be eating. A lot. Do you guys have plans for Father’s Day?
Until Monday, here are some fun reads and links to enjoy:
