Trending Turquoise

I'm still unpacking my chazerei (yes... I know, I'm sick of moving too!) and just noticed that I had subconsciously started a minor trend in my living space.  It was totally unintentional, as this aquamarine shade isn't even a favorite of mine.  I'm rollin' with it though, the turquoise looks fantastical with all the orange and fuschia tchotchkes that I seem to have accumulated.  Go me.

Aromatic Agua

This here has got me reminiscing about Miami, the hotels in SoBe always have ice-cold fruit/veggie-infused H20 waiting for you as you come off the beach.  Le Refreshing!  This is just too simple to not do at home, plus, it's a way healthier alternative to the sugary bevs that are more than likely chillin in your fridge at this very moment.  It's pretty AND it's good for you, this is a no brainer.  Recipes after the jump.

Pin-spired

My hair and I have had one hell of a month!  Being jewish (curly fro: enter stage left) and dealing with all these late 'April Showers' has a girl busting out every rainy-day hair trick she has up her sleeve.  I've never been a fan of bobby pins until very recently.  I feel like I'm always trying to HIDE those bad boys, so seeing these fun & fresh ways to use a basic bobby pin and actually have it/them be SEEN really has me pinspired.

Impressive Imprints

I was recently flipping through an issue of Popular Photography Magazine when my eyes met this very image.  I. Was. Without Delay. Obsessed.  (it's a Gucci bag, how could I not be?) Mitchell Feinberg (coincidentally my mom's maiden) used cornstarch to make this impression and dubbed the final eight photo series: Fossil.  (other images after the jump)  BOW DOWN, Mr. Feinberg, your work is phenomenal.  

Homeless Homes

"Our goal is to bring together imaginative people and discarded materials to make sturdy, innovative, mobile shelters for the homeless people." Gregory Kloehn delivers new life to a favorite phrase of mine: "One man's trash is another man's treasure."
