When do you know you love someone?

Love at first sight?

Time-grown affinity?

Being exposed to someone so long...you just start to care about them?

When did you first fall in love?

How did it happen?

Do you think that love is a great risk or a grand challenge?

I'm curious.

Oh Mickey, You So Fine! Hey, Mickey!

Mickey Mouse is and always has been an iconic character in American history. I've seen more and more of Mickey lately. Whether it be on t-shirts, bags, sweatshirts... Mickey is back-in-action more than ever! And I love it. 

Last sumer while living in LA I was able to learn about the evolution of the cartoon of Mickey and how the cartoon character made his big break. Quite interesting, I must say! 

Mickey was first drawn and created by famous cartoonist, Ub Iwerks, around 1925. He is also famous for drawing the other iconic cartoon... Oswald the Rabbit!  

I was lucky enough to have dinner with his granddaughter, Leslie Iwerks, a famous documentary director, at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles with some friends. This is when my interest for Mickey Mouse had made it's return. I loved hearing the entire process and progress of Mickey the cartoon. I thought it was so interesting to hear that he was so much more than a Disney character on vintage t-shirts from the past. He's also more than just that little guy who flirted with Minnie on Saturday mornings in cartoons I watched with my Dad.

But here I am again - Regressed and obsessed with all things Mickey ~ More specifically, these fun indie-twist on the mouse ears! They are a fun and ironically edgy accessory to be a great topic of conversation anywhere you go. I would love some some with sequins all over them for Christmas! 

Go get a little mousey; thank me later! ;)

Teach Me How To Snuggie

Whilst online shopping at Urban Outfitters (shh! Don't tell my mom!) I came across these precious little gems! I couldn't get over this take on the Snuggie; they are so fabulous. I am definitely adding one of these to my Christmas list right this instant. Just when I thought it could not be done: the Snuggie is now instantly-indie-chic and I couldn't love it any more!

P.S.
Who can believe that Christmas is a little over a month away? Where has 2010 gone?

And in true Carl Nash fashion, I never turn down an opportunity to mEow.
This is one is so cute and "Tigger-esque"


P.P.S. I am so excited to cuddle up in one of these over break! EEEeeeee

Imagine - John Lennon


“when i was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. when I went to school, they asked me what i wanted to be when i grew up. i wrote down ‘happy’. they told me i didn’t understand the assignment, and i told them they didn’t understand life.”
