Oh man, it is a cold, rainy day here in Austin. Of course all the things I was going to do today involved being outside, so it looks like I am going to spend the day hibernating in my warm apartment. Not so bad.
As the week goes on, I always compile a list of links/stories that I want to write about. However, most of the time, I never actually get around to writing the posts. For some reason, this week, I noticed a lot of things that were particularly inspiring to me. So, I wanted to share them with all of you lovely people:
1) These awesome coffee pot recipes that NPR posted. Look, as someone that hates to cook, I am always on the look out for shortcuts.
2) It makes me feel so warm and fuzzy inside when people tell me that they read my blog. This week a fellow blogger from London reached out with an amazing article she had written. If you don’t already follow, Chayya over at AvidScribbler, you should. She wrote a really thoughtful article on the FWord (as in fat), and what it has the ability to do a woman’s self esteem. Check it out here.
3) If you didn’t already think Zappos was a cool company, you should now after their little spat with Kanye.
4) This is totally shameless self promotion, but I am obsessed with my branding column at Entrepreneur. I love it because I get to interview the people behind some of the coolest companies. It is totally inspiring.
5) I am currently experiencing a velvet obsession; I must add something velvet to my wardrobe ASAP. I particularly want this awesome green jumpsuit from ASOS or these overalls.
6) Since, I am FINALLY moving to a bigger apartment, I am on this decorating kick. Obviously, I haven’t really started packing, but that hasn’t stopped me from browsing for new furniture and wall hangings. I am most excited because my friend, Jess, is going to design some fucking amazing prints for my new office area. You should check out her online store: Here to There Prints.
7) As if you haven’t already noticed, I am currently digging a red, white & black color combo. Don’t worry that series is finally over, but in case you missed it: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5.
