Perchance To Dream





Although my dream sleep mask ("dream" sleep mask? hahaha) is the one from Breakfast At Tiffany's, this one might do in the meantime. www.aldeahome.com, $22.

Skim But Whole Percent Cute


All of the Eleanor Grosch print skimmers are cute, but I'd have to say the panda was my favorite. Skimmers are a nice alternative to tennis shoes (because who looks good in tennis shoes?) and every time I wear mine, someone says, "Cute shoes." But I get that a lot. www.keds.com $39.99

Senhor do Bon Bangles


I'm not sure I would actually wear these (bangles can be quite annoying, can't they?) but I love the wrapped fabric thing, and the fact that they're from Brazil. The designer, Karina Matias, has some other cute stuff, and it's all very reasonably priced. I'm sure she'll be showing up in In Style soon. But remember, you saw her here first! www.starsandinfinitedarkness.com, $8 - $14.

Nice Glass













I developed an instant crush on this guy, if only because he is so ridiculously talented. He made these goblets, for instance, which will also be an unrequited love. There aren't even any prices listed on the website, so I don't think they'll be gracing my table anytime soon. Despite the tragic love story between us, you owe it to yourself to peruse his gallery at www.mongrainglass.com. Don't miss the "gaffing" section, which features his art installations, including a ceiling at the Bellagio.

You're Only Jung Once











It's weird how the collective unconscious works. Months ago, I had this (brilliant) idea for a pillow. I even bought a pillow to use for the project. Unfortunately, I can't sew, as we have already established. Therefore, said project never came into existence. Except...it did. And here it is. At amara.co.uk for 79 euros.

Who's Got The...


If only I had taken that sewing class! Then, I could make something with these adorable buttons. Those of you who sew can get a card of four buttons at www.peacefleece.com for $8. And when you do, you'll be contributing to peace in the Middle East. Think I'm kidding? Read all about it on their home page.

I Can Dish It


My jaw *literally* dropped when I saw these plates. There might have been a gasp involved, too. Can I help it if I'm a sucker for dishes, prints, and these colors, much less a combination of all three? Is there a support group for this? If not, you'll be seeing more from this site, I promise. www.rosannainc.com, $48 - $90.
