Crack Kills

We usually have kids on weekends. And every weekend someone says to our almost-teenager, "Crack kills." Or "The moon is bright today." And sometimes, "Hey, did ya get a job as a plumber?" I'm sure there are more, but after hearing them over and over and over again I try to block out the lame humor. Bad butt jokes no more! I was blog-hopping and landed at Livin' With Me!, where I discovered the Hip-T: it slips over your jeans and under your t-shirt, giving you a layered look (and protecting your, um, assets) without the bulk of layers. And the best thing is, you can win one just by checking out Hip-T.com, choosing your favorite color, and leaving a comment on Livin' With Me! Or shop to your heart's content if you're like me and can't stand to hear another bad butt joke.

Eu nao fala portugues

"I don't speak Portuguese," is one of the few Portuguese phrases I know, and I'm not entirely positive I've spelled it correctly. Thankfully beauty knows no language barriers, and my visit to ContasBrasil's shop left me wanting to hop on the next flight to Rio.


The Green/Lavanda Fields necklace is one of my favorites.



I am amazed at the detail in this handcrafted Myong Doll Bag. I can't imagine the number of hours this must have taken, and I feel inspired to try my hand at something more intricate than normal.
