Ruby Tuesday

This stormy weather has me double-checking for matches. We all know about my obsession with matches, as seen in my very first post here on Pretty Things. Well, now I have found this match artwork by Pei-San Ng and I cannot contain my excitement. Rest assured, no matter how big the storm, you would never catch me striking one of these sticks!

It's been awhile since we did a post on street style, so I thought I'd revisit the topic. The Locals is a style blog capturing the fashions of Copenhagen and beyond through the lens of freelance photographer Søren Jepsen. The great thing about this blog is that you can search by city, so I am able to see what is currently inhabiting my old stomping ground in London or venture over to Paris for a an hour or two. I especially love this colour story from the city of love, perfect for fall.

Living Pretty

I can't believe it, but it's almost that time again. Time for the One of a Kind Christmas Show & Sale in Toronto! If you're looking for a unique gift for someone (or yourself) you should definitely check it out. It opens on November 22 and their site is already featuring artisan of the week. This week the spotlight is on Jana Bookholt. Jana creates beautiful, dare I say, one of a kind, charcuterie and cutting boards. She also has a personal wood care product line, which obviously sport equally beautiful labels. I'm sure Laura and I will be doing follow-up posts to share a few more of the lovely finds at this amazing show, so stay tuned.

If You Can't Be With The One You Love

These fantastic new pieces by Julie Buffalohead have just made my day. Originally spotted on The Jealous Curator, I have been patiently waiting for Julie to post new work. Today, I have finally been rewarded! She is currently showing at Bockley Gallery in Minneapolis and I really wish I could somehow transport myself there. What's better than animals having a pillow fight? Nothing.

Marlies Allmaier business card design

Absolutely crushing on these hand lettered/stamped business cards by Typejockeys, a design firm out of Austria. Gorgeous typography, brilliant red, and a tangible, handmade product - what more could you ask for?! Time to hit the craft store for a little ink methinks.
