I had aWWYT (aka What Were You Thinking?) moment while scanning the news recently. North Face apparently is claiming South Butt is infringing a North Face trademark. What are the chances people would mistake North Face as the origin of the South Butt merch? Dunno. Might going after a 18 year old college student in this case turn into a PR nightmare? I can see it. As funny as it is, did South Butt really have to adopt that logo? No scarcity of WWYT here. See the poll to the left.
Labelle Maverique creates unique masks, cuffs and chokers from recycled inner tubes. She cuts each design by hand using tiny scissors and without any patterns, resulting in an organic feel. Hand cut mask, $30:
The cute witch doesn't like hearing about all this negativity. Fluffy Butt Tutu, $10:
"Butt...." painting of a young man and his dog, $324:

Best Form of Denial
Ever have one of those days when you feel like walking around with eyes closed, fingers in ears and singing la-la-la loudly? Kiddies, do not try that at home, it can be dangerous. This smashin' purselet is a perfect alterna-expression of your feelings. Light Bulb Moment: you can thwack the object of your irritation with the coin-filled purse. I kid. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil coin purse by Bonspiel, $22 - cheaper than therapy.
Peace out,

Polarity's Fantastic Design
"_
Mixing it up is always a good idea. Polarity makes it easy with her line of interchangeable jewelry. Why not get multiple necklaces for the price of one? She'll even personalize a set of 3 for you, for a mere $16. At $12-$16, how can anyone pass up Polarity's rings, earrings and bracelets?

Baby Alert!

I love these adorably stylish leather baby shoes. Someone, please have a baby. Reasonably-priced at $15.

Bees & Dragonflies
I stumbled upon beautiful embossed cards and envelopes created by Steffen of 3GIRLSandagoat. They're even more gorgeous in person. The set of 6 bee gift tags ($5.50) arrived wrapped with a pretty organdy tie, as seen in the first pic. I opted for the dragonfly card in cocoa ($3), but Steffen offers them in other colors such as kumquat, mulberry, teal and more. They are blank on the inside, making them handy for many occasions. I can't wait to give these out!

I adore Malam's creations from afar. Sadly, I have no need to buy new clothing as I'm working from home these days. The minute I'm back into a more traditional office and exposed to co-workers, I'll be back to snap up something like this gorgeous shrug. Click here to see all the details, including options to customize.

Testing Testing - DEBUT, baby!
Another blog?
Here I stand, atop my soap box. There's no purpose to this blog other sharing some thoughts, particularly as I shop. I'd LOVE to buy more, but, alas, the economy.
Hey, I can PIMP though!
