P.S. They also have some awesome handbags + stationery! :)
P.P.S. Orange and Pear will have a special surprise for So about what I said readers later this month, so stay tuned!
Mad Men.
Confession: I’m in love with Mad Men, the AMC hit set in the 1960’s about a group of Madison Avenue advertising executives. The show returns for its fourth season this Sunday, and I’m simply ecstatic. The show is the perfect blend of drama (hello, secret baby and even more secret affairs!) and a perfect snapshop of 1960’s culture (hello, old-fashioned typewriters and the begining of the Women’s Liberation Movement!).
Do you watch it, friends? Anyone having a Mad Men party like they’re doing in Times Square? You’re supposed to come dressed in your swankiest ’60’s attire for costume and trivia contests! How fun! xoxo
P.S. Who’s your favorite character? I’ve always been a Peggy Olson girl myself!
P.P.S. Read past posts for proof of my Mad Men obsession here + here + here + here
Obsession: Brilliant Earth Jewelry.
I’m loving the concept behind Brillian Earth this week. The Canadian company lets you create your own jewelry originating from pure sources and harvested using socially responsible practices. How awesome is that? Today, I can’t stop browing their pendants section.
And even better, the company donates 5% of their profits to local communities hurt by the diamond industry! What a shining example, don’t you think, friends? Read more about the company on its blog, and I’d love to hear what your favorite beautiful piece is! xoxo
Obsession: Heart Ring.
I’ve been Web surfing Bario-Neal a lot lately. I know their heart ring is completely out of my price range, but as I always say: Browsing is free. Isn’t it beautiful? It sort of reminds me of Mr. Melissa Blake. Might even make for a cool engagement ring. Sigh.
Oh, and speaking of Mr. Melissa Blake, stay tuned because I’ve got some milestone Letters planned for next week, friends! xoxo
**Please note: Looking for Freaky (Funny!) Friday? It makes its triumphant return next week!
