High Gloss

So love these playful but still-sleek ceramics from High Gloss! The first would look so gooood with a green plant overflowing over its edges. Sight Unseen posted a great interview piece on High Gloss's creator, Natalie Herrera, over here, and she's got a great inspiration tumblr, too! Check it out.

synchronous rotation

It seems that I've become kinda, sorta, quite into moons lately. Truthfully I've loved space for as long as I can remember, stargazing in front of my house with my Dad, asking hungrily which constellations were which, squinting skyward and always, always ending up dizzy. I still keep track of things happening in the sky, trying my best to catch eclipses and meteor activities, to stare up into the still darkness and smile at the beauty, the wildness, the sheer wacky awesomeness of it. Sometimes it's easy to forget! But truly we'd be foolish to allow that.

The moon is currently waning after a knockout "wolf moon" on the 15th of January (so bright!), but still, we can appreciate some selenic (ooh) goodness, no? Below, a few of my favorite moon-y items from around the web to aid in surrounding yourself with this most wondrous presence as we continue, as always, to rotate alongside it, synchronously. And now onto the STUFF, before I get too carried away...

ps // If you're with me on this, I'd recommend reading artist and all around rad lady Lauren Spencer King's blog, The Sphinx and the Milky Way - not only does she offer little peaks into her amazing universe of inspirations (art, music, writings), but she also composes these really thoughtful Full Moon readings each month that are lovely to read and ponder. Her 2014 moon calendar is below!

garçonne

Mega sweet gift guide from perennial favorite e-retailer and causer of much heartache and lust, La Garçonne. All of these pieces are a dream; especially falling for the dreamy pearl details of the Sophie Bille Brahe jewelry and Tsumori Chisato blouse.

bandelier

L.A.-based Bandelier is making some of my favorite accessories right now. Kinda shamanistic and so super beautiful in the loveliest of leather. I am so into the simple styling too, letting these pieces take center stage. Very much looking forward to their future collections! If you're in Los Angeles, you can find some pieces at Mohawk General Store, purveyor of all good and luxurious things. A few are online here too.

Well, it's not every day that a pair of psychedelic heels and an illustrated matador are so truly meant to be together. Happy weekend, everybody.
