Amazing (and Revenge-like, obsessed much?) Infinity Ring. Really, though... was "infinity" becoming a design trend and then the show Revenge ripped it off, or did the show create that wave? Power.
Flower String Lights. I would be content with a pile of these sitting in the corner of my bedroom. They look so soft!
Soda Jerk Chandelier. Yeah, those are old school soda bottles. Yeah, they're upside down. No, it's not a DIY... yet. Check it out at Anthropologie for something to swoon over.
This year, I was determined to get to work on a homemade-yet-extremely-useful gift for my mother. We both shoot with a Nikon D5000 and had been working with fairly standard Nikon camera bags. At the end of the day, however, those bags pose two problems. First, they're not particularly glamorous. It felt like lugging around a huge, unattractive... diaper bag. Shouldn't it feel badass to be shooting in downtown Chicago? Not when you're carrying around a diaper bag! Second, the bags were total theft magnets. I can't even keep track of how many people I know whose cameras have been stolen. Why does that surprise me when we carry around bags with NIKON or CANON written across the top?
From now on, I will carry a camera bag that screams neither "Steal me, I have $1,000 of equipment inside!" nor "Look, a diaper bag!" No, sir. I pledge (ha!) to carry a bag that is attractive. Chic. Fabulous.
