Found Type

I love typography. I especially love type you just happen to find when you are out and about. So I thought I would share some such finds. These are actually from when I lived in Chicago, which is great for this kind of thing.

In honor of Halloween passing

Super awesome natural distressing happening here

Okay, granted not actually type, but it looked like a "B" to me.

No ball playing...

Til next time!

Favorite Kitsch Film Interiors

I find the greatest inspiration for interior design through movies, like many. Especially when the set acts as a character itself, such as the movies below. If you know me, you know that my sole criteria for enjoying a film is that it is pretty. I am that vapid and uninteresting.


Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange
                                          Production Design by John Barry                                                                                                                                


Stanley Kubrick's The Shining
Production Design by Roy Walker      


^^ I wish I could find a better image for this scene...It's so amazing!
C'mon. It's beautiful.

Tom Ford's A Single Man
Production Design by Dan Bishop


Speaks for itself!

Sofia Coppolla's Marie Antoinette
Production Design by K.K. Barrett


Now, the Victorian style is not really my thing...but I can't help but be inspired by it for that reason. I am not a fan of blue, but somehow this dated, mundane blue is very interesting to me..not something I would think of. It's funny how a tired look can suddenly become new and fresh again when used in the right way.

Wes Anderson's The Royal Tenenbaums
Production Design by David Wasco



This movie interior seems like it is right out of 2012. The large prints and traditional portraits among modern  decor is very current IMO. I love the whole Floridian, mid-century kitsch thing he has going on.

Love,

The Smell of Fall is in the Air

Happy Friday! I absolutely love fall. It is such a pretty time of year and the weather is just perfect. So I wanted to share some of my favorite fall things. Enjoy!


Love, love, love, love these boots. I love boots in general, and fall is a great time to bust them out.

Cinnamon wrapped candles

Awesome fall prints

If interested, you can actually download one of these prints here.

Pumpkin Spice Frappe

I love pumpkin a little too much, I think. I for sure plan to try this frappe, and will let you all know how it goes when I do. If you want to try it yourself, check out the recipe.

Next week will be much more exciting of a post, so look forward to that. Today I was thwarted from doing what I wanted by my own clumsiness. Anyway, promise an awesome post for next Friday, so remember to check in then!
