01// A super thoughtful & insightful article on friendship.

02// Carmen's Top 5 Fake Jobs made me laugh pretty hard.

03// So cool! Katie shares a screencast of her latest owl doodle. This inspires me to better learn Illustrator.

04// Brooke gives us a little behind the scenes look at recording an album in her home. I miss my friends in these photos!

05// I'm really loving this look on Mara. I have a long cardigan in that color too and she's inspiring me to try new ways to wear it.

Offline Love; the new dierks bentley album; texts with hillary; munching on oriental rice crackers from trader joe's; NOT losing my wallet; living in black leggings; my mom coming over and cleaning my kitchen in under 20 minutes {only mom's have those super cleaning powers}; doing my best thinking in the shower & sitting in sunbeams<3

Hey, Hi, Hello

Posted on February 9, 2012 by Liz

Hello, strangers. I took this week off from blogging because I needed a little break and have been busy {as always}. But I'll be back starting tomorrow, with a fresh round of Link Bytes.

In the meantime, scroll on down my sidebar and check out the new sections I added. I don't know where my brain went but I realized I hadn't made share badge widgets to match my {now, not-so} new blog design. I whipped up a couple; feel free to grab one if you'd like. I also installed a couple of fancy plugins for my two obsessions: Instagram & Pinterest for those of you who want to keep up with me on those spaces, via my blog.

I hope everyone is having a good week; see y'all soon! XO

01 // I'm loving Eli's literary take on fashion.

02 // Diana does it again & shows us her latest jaw-dropping home decor--a pink chalkboard door! {hey, that rhymed}

03 // I got inspired by Erin's antler painting party & ordered my own deer antlers from ebay this week. I can't wait to break out the paints this weekend & share the results!

04 // The cutest baby-on-the-way video announcement I have ever seen. {via}

05 // I was recently reminded about this great site for unique products. It reminds me of Twitter but for really neat, kooky things.

Offline Love; doing things right as i think of them instead of procrastinating; center parting my hair; getting organized with freelance stuff; filing my taxes and getting a nice return{!}; staying motivated and going to the gym every other day; new pink ear buds; grocery shopping; working on our relationship with my love; healthy meal planning & vodka screwdrivers.

Wine, Oh!

Posted on February 2, 2012 by Liz


1 {Cupcake Red Velvet} // 2 {Bogle Chardonnay} // 3 {Barefoot wines}

It's no secret I love me some wine; a popular question I often get asked is which kinds are my favorite. I'm constantly trying out new wines--I try to choose a new blend or vineyard when I make a trip to my local Trader Joe's, but the ones pictured above are some of my absolute favorites and make regular appearances on my nightstand kitchen counter.

Bowling is for Lovers

Posted on February 1, 2012 by Liz

Last weekend we went out with some friends to our local bowling alley. It was packed and sort of expensive {$40 an hour!} but we had a great time nonetheless. The cheesy retro decor & Glo-Bowl segment of the night made me feel like we were straight outta The Big Lebowski.

The best part? I beat Glenn's score! Both rounds actually, but who's counting? ;)

This means I get to cross off another item from my Adventure Guide: "Beat Glenn in a game of anything." Thankfully, he's not a sore loser & was actually a good sport about it. Love you, babe.

Ps; I'd like to welcome & introduce to you my February friends hanging out over in the sidebar. Plenty of friendly new faces + spaces for you to check out!
