Jack had a doll...





I'm going to be posting a lot of iPhone images of new items at Finderskeepers Market tomorrow. I just wanted to start things off with these fun, vintage vocabulary cards. For all those Jacks that didn't enjoy running up hills and falling down — this is for you.

All Saints Chicago Launch...











If you follow the NVR, you'll recall my swooning last summer over the All Saints Spitalfields store in NYC. Well, they are now launching a Chicago location with all the same bits and wonderful pieces. Let the swooning commence!

Fife & Alice...













I just wanted to share these little snapshots of my cats, Fife & Alice. Folks joke that even my pets are color-coordinated. Not intentional, I swear — but they sure do look pretty in a gray room.

Puzzle Pieces...

Back at home after a very successful weekend of shopping for new vintage pieces for Finderskeepers Market. Taking it easy and trying to fit all the new finds together in my mind. Here, I love how the collections just seem to come together in their beautiful display. Sometimes not trying too hard is the best solution.

His name is Finch — and he makes things.

Whitecross Farm...









Mark and Sally Bailey's Whitecross Farm in England is an inspired mix of the old and the worn, but with a sense of freshness and wonder only skilled hands can create.
