bits and pieces

Here are a few bits and pieces of life lately:

Charlie took me to see Vampire Weekend for an early birthday gift.

I almost died when I saw their stage design... floral wallpaper and gold mirrors.

A band after my heart.

 Found this great console at HomeGoods. I only wish I had a place for this find!

 I did, however, score this awesome mid-century clock for our bedroom. It makes me happy.

Love when shops and restaurants get festive. This local bar was decked out in Halloween decor.

Confession: I had two (and a half) Sprinkles Cupcakes this week.

It was my birthday though, so I don't feel too bad :)

friday finds

Lately there have been some seriously good finds on the cheap. Here are my favorites for this week:

1// Serena & Lily set/4 salad plates (orig. $98, now $45)
2// Serena & Lily set/4 dinner plates (orig. $148, now $75)
3// Anthropologie gallery speakers (orig. $400, now $49.50)
4// Urban Outfitters giant dot rug 3x5 (orig. $44, now, $15)

music room

Just when I finally have almost all of our rooms the way I want, Charlie and I are thinking about moving out of our apartment and into something a little larger. Right now our guest room is also serving the purpose of an office/workout/music room. I'm hoping that we'll be able to find somewhere that has enough space for both a music room/office and a separate guest bedroom.

I love the idea of a fun wallpaper, and you can't go wrong with a bright, sunny window
