Sugar and spice and everything nice - that is what girls are made of. Well, my boyfriend wants me to write about dinosaurs or anything that looks like a dinosaur. And what about ninja turtles? Way cooler than dinosaurs if you ask me (Bowser is an outlier). Here are a few things that remind me of that special prince in my life.

Canada Kicking It

Just stumbled upon Aritzia - I am basically speechless! Way to go, Canada. As I quickly educate myself on the company's history and management, take the time to browse the amazing own-label product on this site. Apparently, the retailer's website only just launched in October 2012.

One of my online favorite's is above - and I quickly connected to this Rifle Paper Co. floral pattern! I don't think I've ever been this excited over Canada :)

Happy Absence

Also, I should probably explain why I haven't posted in about a year... Well, get this... I've been happy! A finished degree and a new job make for an extremely satisfied Ms. Blossom! I still have the same dreams and such, but I've put myself in a position where I don't feel like they're getting stepped on every day. Great success story, right? Well, not quite, but I'm getting there - one ice pick at a time! That's what professional growth/ advancement is in my mind: like climbing a big fucking glacier (of doom sometimes).

So there you have it, folks! That explains my absence - in the most vague way ever :) And here is some more! This bustier is "the tits", but the model's tits are not "the tits"... I've added "" for clarity.

Making A Case Point

I've had a new iPhone for months now, but I just can't seem to commit to a new phone case. It doesn't make all that much sense - I'm walking around with a temporary case that is particularly lame because I can't decide on "the one" I want to purchase. There's a website that is only furthering this dilemma: Society6. There are simply cool iPhone cases for days - and creativity to no end. Here's the list of styles that are currently holding me hostage:

There are probably many more favorites, but for once I'm thankful for my waning attention. Anybody have any definite favorites? If this wakes me up before 8 a.m. on a Saturday, I'm clearly struggling!

*One sore point: Who still makes their customer pay for shipping these days?!

Bathroom Bliss

This is more for my records, than anything else. Unbelievable, folks! Found this over at Miss Moss. I've somehow convinced myself that wallpapering my bathroom is going to happen in the near future. Mind you, there is negative room for this in my budget. Oh, and we currently rent? Yes, I'm delusional. Check out this sick use of chalkboard paint on Design*Sponge as well. Happy dreaming!

Found these beauties while tracking down an elusive feather bangle from Paro Paro. D.Co Copenhagen sure makes some stunners! The best part about these shoes is that I can imagine so many different ladies rocking them. They are both truly timeless pairs - with a bit of sassafrass!

New Job, New Do

As I sit here writing my second to last paper (hello graduate degree!) I can't help but fantasize about my new job. That's right. New job, new credentials, and a big apartment move coming up! I can't tell you how good it all feels. I've been scheming new office looks because I'm not sure how easy it will be for me to drop my very conservative office attire. I've been brainwashed :( This alice + olivia look has me feeling all giddy! I would have to switch up the shoes because I'm a goober in stilettos. So these Dr. Martens I've been eying should do the trick!
