friday finds ~ volume 68.

welcome to the weekend, friends. rain is returning, so i plan to work on the current mission of mine to redesign my cottage, which i mentioned earlier this week. i finally found a larger sofa that i love (on sale, yay!), and now i’m needing to hunt down a new square or rectangular wood coffee table that i want to style by stacking my design books and my many objets d’art. i’ll post soon on the new living room look i’m going for, and i also thought you might be interested in some of the pieces i’ll be selling if you feel like a trek to laguna beach to pick them up. on to this week’s friday finds and random recommendations. I know it often feels like a leanne ford lovefest around here, but we are just very simpatico when it comes to aesthetics — so i highly recommend the latest issue of her magazine. one of my favorite resources for unique shops around the world can be found right here — armchair travel away! and lastly, i am so very excited to hear this song sung at the upcoming oscars — how about you? and have a wonderful weekend! x, v.
