The Anthology just got way more connected (welcome to 2009, Kelsey).
Find the Anthology on Facebook and let’s be friends.
And the Anthology’s now on Twitter. If you are too, let’s make sweet tweets together.
See you in cyberspace!
Buraka Som Sistema’s remix of Lykke Li’s Dance Dance Dance I imagine myself in an open-air nightclub on the banks of the Danube.
Thanks Mike.
I went to an antique fair today with the intention of getting a bookshelf, a writing desk and a dresser. I found none of those things.
Instead, I found this little ditty.
It’s the perfect mix of Eastern Europe and the 80s, two things I love very much.
And it’s way cooler than a bookshelf. Funny how you can go looking for something and be perfectly happy you didn’t find it, isn’t it?
I wish I were more of a do-it-myselfer. I really do. If I were an extremely capable one, I just might take advantage of Ronen Kadushin’s open design concept.
The German designer has published designs for pieces like this on his site.
You can download his designs and, if you like, modify them.
It’s all in the name of sharing creativity. (Thank you, Melissa, for sharing yours.)
This outfit is black and white and red all over.
This vintage skirt was quite a find (I love pleats).
I also love imagining the original owner of my vintage pieces. This one seems like it could have belonged to a detective back when people smoked at work. What do you think?
Phoenix just released the video for Lisztomania and it really makes me want to see them live.
Will you come to Vancouver, Phoenix? Pretty please?
Design*Sponge (one of the best interior design blogs out there) + The Cross (hands down my favourite decor store in Vancouver, which is also where I found my beautiful mirror) = a very interesting interview.

Guest posts are the best posts (especially when they’re about romance, recycling and Romanelli hats). This one is from my sister-in-law Jaclyn.
I’ll be in London this June and plan to scour the streets for Kenyan-born Brian Gathii’s To-orist line filled with safari-inspired streetwear.
Think: Prince meets Kanye meets… King Tut?
With bold colours and edgy appliques each piece is perfectly prismatic.

On the beach in Barcelona, it’s a dress. I love a good shirt/dress. So versatile.
And then there’s my amethyst cuff, which is always an amethyst cuff.
Forget diamonds, I think coloured stones are a girl’s best friend.
If you asked Leroy, he’d probably tell you Whistler is his new favourite place.
Much of it, like Lost Lake, is still covered in snow. And so, so beautiful.
He spent forever running and digging and having the time of his life. Right up until a cranky old corgie ruined his fun.
What is it about the snow that’s just so, so much fun?
