Feathers & Moss is a neat little shop I came across full of tiny curiosities with a big wow factor. I'm a sucker for things organized neatly, especially cool + unique stuff sorted into vintage cubbies and apothecary jars. The trinkets are unlike anything I've ever seen and I would love to own any one of them!
Some of us are parents. Even if you aren't, imagine what it would be like to tuck your child into bed at night only to wake up the next day and discover that in the middle of the night, they were stolen from their warm bed and forced to join a guerrilla army in which they kill, mutilate and are sold into sexual slavery. In America, something like this wouldn't last a year, month even. Immediate action would be taken to protect American children. In Africa however, these scenarios have been replaying over and over again for almost 30 years.
I rarely get political on the blog, but it's been awhile since I've felt so moved and passionate about a cause and after watching the video last night and bawling my eyes out, felt compelled to share in an effort to spread awareness.
Watch the video below. Get to know who Joseph Kony is and let's make him famous & bring him to justice.

Do you guys know about Kara? She's pretty awesome and writes an equally awesome blog with inspiring posts such as this. I decided to borrow her idea and list out twelve little things I've learned so far in 2012. If you play along be sure to link up in the comments below so Kara and I can read about what you're learning.
02// That procrastination is the easy way out and once you just START something it's usually enough to keep you going until you finish.
03// That relationships are hard work.
04// That watching videos of animals doing silly things makes me really happy.
05// That even after so many burned/re-built bridges, cat fights & tears--I still have some of the best friends in the world and they've all had a hand in shaping the kind of person I am today.
06// That try as I might, cannot tolerate the taste of whiskey.
07// That it's okay to do absolutely nothing all day sometimes, and not feel guilty about it.
08// That I hate folding/putting away clean laundry and even though I yell at myself every single morning rummaging through piles of clean clothes on my futon...there it still sits.
09// That I'm pretty resilient.
10// That growing out my bangs is the way to go.
11// That getting up early and doing my hair + makeup really does make a difference.
12// That at the end of the day, you just have to silence all of the outside opinions and do what YOU feel is right. Because we're all different but we're all in it together.
01// Look at this inspiring simple business card design. Love!
02// Pretty much the best giveaway ever.
03// Dazzled by this amazing giant paper flower DIY.
04// Amy shared a link to this video today and now all I want in life is to own a Fennec fox.
05// Dear universe, please let me look like/be able to do this someday. {found via}
If I were leaving on a jet plane tomorrow, I'd want to be wearing something like this which is both comfortable and classy. Don't be afraid to mix patterns! The Kelly-green skinny jeans compliment the nautical long-sleeve; the floral scarf + flat shoes are sure to keep you warm and comfortable during your travels. Don't forget your headphones, e-reader, passport & chic carry-on tote to keep everything together. With a winning outfit like this, you're sure to earn your pilot wings in no time ;)
Is there something you'd like to see styled? Leave a comment or email me to let me know!
