The cutest valentines day gifts to get yourself

Valentines Day is about love, red stuff, heart shaped things and coupledom. Many single people hate Valentines Day, and for good reason ( many people in relationships hate it too, because not everyone is into the gift giving and overtly saying I love you for putting up with me).

So if you’re single or just in a relationship and selfish the best thing to counteract this cupid madness is to fight back by getting cute stuff for yourself*. Thats right people – I think we can call it self love in this case, and there aint nothing wrong with that!

Go ahead make yourself happy:
red valentines day gifts

All items available on fredflare.com, which is like my kid in a candy shop experience store. I love this place!

*Or you can throw an Anti-Valentines Day themed party for single people. These are perfect party mixers, especially if you’re not looking for mister right , but mister right now – ah the joys of the single life.

Cute Vintage Phones

It’s the return of old school elegance. Yes, modern cordless phones fulfill our needs for mobility and multitasking – but we’re going back to a time when things were less high paced – where you actually sat beside the telephone and enjoyed the conversation in your favorite chair.

And to do just that here are some cool retro phones that are sure to bring back memories or make you want to kick your foot up and make that long overdue call.

I was shopping in the Marais this Saturday at random Japanese inspired store and saw the cutest vintage phone, immediately set me on a search for old school phones, like the hamburger one used in JUNO.

Cute Etsy Find : LaOtra Vintage

I found this “cute” etsy store last night online while surfing the net at 2AM.

Long story; I woke up to feed my baby and couldn’t seem to get back to sleep – it was just one of those nights where my mind was just wondering all over the place.

Alas I headed over to one of my favorite design blogs, which by the way has a new awesome look, Decor8 for some late night inspiration. While reading I had clicked through a link that led me to the FredFlare site, which I had totally forgotten about, but is one of those online retailers that you’d love to window surf because of all the fun stuff. You know like that hamburger phone from Juno.

Anyways this is how I onto Etsy.com, can’t quite remember how I got there, but you know these things go, but boy was I glad to find this LaOtra store! Really pristine vintage dresses and tops, for cheap! I’m also seduced by the little stories she writes up to go along as product description. they are so different, poetic and romantic!

I would like to do an Etsy feature now at least once a week on the blog, because of all the good stuff I found, that I know you’d love too.
So lets kick off the first of many good finds with the little etsy shop by LaOtra. Here’s some of her stuff.





Pictured above: The Fearless Vacationer $16, The Good Student $21, The Other Coy Mistress $28, The Natural Woman $30

I give her 4 TOOCUTE’s.

Jahaute need’s your help: Love it or Hate it???

Ok, so I’m having this debate with my hubby over some changes I’m making to the blog. :) He hates the black and pink, his reason being he thinks its cheesy and a white background is very classy.

Frankly, I got really tired of looking at the white background, as it looked like every other blog, and I love color!

So I want to find out from you, my dear readers what you think, as its your thoughts that really matters, anyways. Are you feeling the new more colorful blog, or is it indeed horrible, and you’d much rather the white background?

Ok…you’ve spoken and i’ve heard you loud and clear, I’m bring the white background back :)
Love – Jahaute
