just had to

puppies!

happy happy!!

holiday cheer and whatnot

so it looks like belle's patiently awaited arrival as an actual post-er of this blog [as opposed to just a commenter, pssh] is to be delayed still, seeing as she is currently en route to madrid, españa! that bitch... anyhow, it is a few days until the majority of the western world celebrates the birth of jebus [or something?], so i figured a little holiday cheer was in order. take a look at these cute holiday cards from darling clementine

 

 

 

 

 

 

i would love to get one of these in the mail! i love those whimsical little ornaments, too cute i say. these cards are from a series called snowfolk, and you can purchase them here. i love 1973 in general, and i think it's great that they carry darling clementine. i also happen to lurrrv the name darling clementine because my little chorkie/yorkihuahua is named clementine! she is definitely my darling angel baby face and really likes wearing matching clothes with me [this is a lie].


next up distributing cheerfulness is lagom designs

 

 

how cute is the three kings card? you can even download the design as a desktop pattern! do so here. do it.


so i don't know what it is, maybe i'm just not an expert on the subject, but i haven't found a whole heap of holiday inspiration lately. some things i did find is this somewhat old photoshoot from danish photographer signe vilstrup...gorgeous and faintly feeling holiday-ish!

 

 

alright sugartits, well i hope you have a very fabulous holiday and a highly sensational new year. i will be wearing sparkly hot pants to ring in twenty-eleven, this much i know. there may be posts betwixt now and the new year, and yet there may not be. we'll see what happens, it'll be a fun game. don't forget to be one of the in crowd and like us on ye olde facebook! if you don't, we won't let you sit with us at lunch, and how do you ever expect to be made homecoming queen if you aren't at the popular table?

when i grow up...i want to live here!

so mr. rottencrotch and i are in the process of starting to look for a house. after years of renting, we are ready [i think? eegads] to own something. now, of course, what we would like to buy and what we actually will be buying are completely and totally different... but a gal can dream, can't she? can't sheeeeeeee??!
okay, good. so i found this place in vals, switzerland...and i'm ready to pack my bags and switch my currency because this place is insane. check it:

 

 villa vas [this house] was built into the side of a mountain, partially

underground. it was designed by christian müller architects and is pretty

f'in badass, right!?! in the snowy winter:

other amazing angles

 

love the concrete throughout with the gray, black and white

scheme and just a few random splashes of colour.

 

 

can you see it? it's the little circle sort of on the bottom left...a closer shot:

also, i like these living spaces from a flat in argentina:

 

even though i thoroughly despise cold weather, i have to say that i am crazy in love with these awesome homes in granville island, vancouver

 stay tuned for more o+b and be glad it's not b.o.

also, now you can join the cool kids on facebook! your mind is blown, i know.

lust list

currently on my radar...

 

 

jambox! super tiny yet super powerful mobile speakers! i want in blue.

also loving these longchamp glasses

 to go along with those gorgeous goblets, 

i'd like this chandelier by johnny egg for heals

and i also need this pillow from anthropologie

and i wouldn't say no to a fabulous globe chandelier from benoit vieubled too!

 i could easily make either of the following my living space

 

and i'm crazy for lisa jones' prints!

lovebirds♥
