Game For Gold

( Via Megan Hess )

I feel as if I have been dreaming in gold this week, after watching all of the Olympic games. In truth, gold is one of my very favorite colors. My home is sprinkled with gold accents, I used some gold "dust" on my shoulders today, and wore my gold glitter Toms. Gold is so glam, even when used casually. I just can't resist anything that sparkles. If you are game for gold like myself, this shiny selection of home decor, jewelry, fancy footwear and more is a winner.

Countdown To College

( Via Container Store )

I hate to even say the words "Back to School" yet, but the college kids will be heading there soon. Sending your child off to college and away from home takes some planning. It really isn't too early to begin making a list, and ordering what you need.  Miss Shop This and I spent the entire Summer getting her dorm room together. My favorite tip: order on line and have your things shipped to school! It's a great relief not to have to pack it up and ship it all yourself. There are so many fun and functional choices for every budget.  Here's what I loved.

Bisley File Cabinets
Add color and functionality to a drab dorm room. I remember my own coed needing something that locked to keep her passport and jewelry safe. Terrific as a trio or alone. Fun!
