My Bookish Valentine

If I had a real, actual Valentine this year, you can bet that these adorably bookish cards would most definitely be what he'd end up with. As it stands, I'm sharing the Valentine's day love with all of you instead! Hope you are having a wonderful, happy, romantic day, no matter your relationship status!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Cat Tatts

Librarians love cats - I think this is a given. I am certainly no exception, and while I don't actually own a cat at the moment (trying not to fulfill the single cat-lady librarian stereotype), I do love them.  When I discovered these incredibly adorable tattoos by illustrator Harriet Gray I could not have been more excited to try them out.

They're just like the fake tattoos you used as a kid - slip off the transparent film, stick them where you want them to go, moisten (in my case with a wet facecloth) and you're done! So far I've had more than a few comments about them from folk I've seen on my travels around town today who thought they were real. I might be a cat-crazy lady (hopefully not a crazy cat lady!), but I'm not sure I'd permanently tattoo them to my wrists!

If you want your own cat tatts - or any other lovely illustrations of the non-tattoo variety, do check out Harriet's shop, or her official website!

This Bird Has Flown

This amazingness from Norwegian Wood has been cropping up all over various blogs and sites, but I am such a fan of the label, promoting Canadian designers (Go Montreal!), and the fabulous garments that are now available via etsy, I just had to re-post it.

Continuing on the theme of Norwegian Wood praise, enjoy a little mood music here:
