TAT T LY D E S I G N Y TAT TO O S

$5

I’ve always wanted tattoos but I’m such a fickle creature so I can never decide what I want. Well, luckily I can get my tat fix from these temporary tattoos! They are one of the most legit looking temp tats I’ve ever seen. They last about two weeks for me, that’s if you don’t shower or scrub. I’m totally kidding about the showering. But I suggest patting around the tat area so you don’t rub it off.

This is indubidably my favorite candle. I can’t get enough of it. My place smells deliciously succulent even when it’s not l it . It ’s potent without being overwhelming. They have lots of scents but my favorites are the makassar ebony peach and also the saijo persimmon.

I’m a huge a fan of everything Keiko does. Her i l lustrations are always cheery and childlike without being too childish so they’re perfect for all ages. These Christmas cards are just lovely. Makes me wish we had snow in Los Angeles. Check out her other prints of birds and safari animals!

I wonder if I ’m the first dude to rock Kate Miss’ jewelry. This necklace is one of the more masculine ones but to be honest, most of them are very unisexual. I l ike to wear it with a loose black tee and a blazer or a nice leather jacket.

I am a sucker for vintage perpetual calendars. They also make excellent paperweight.

I was instantly drawn to the packaging and the apatosaurus i l lustration. It’s my favorite dinosaur! I haven’t tried it yet but I’m certain it’s delicious. I also love the gold foil . Reminds me of Willy Wonka.

I’m quite impressed with the Nate Berkus Target l ine, especially this bath towel. It’s soft and has the per-fect thickness for winter. And for $10, you can’t go wrong! It comes in five different colors. I might head back to get the yellow one.

I got this book because I’m a big fan of Jon Klassen’s wonderful i l lustrations. The story is really adorable and inspiring too. It’s about a girl who lives in a drab town, so she decides to knit something colorful for everyone to make the world a more colorful and diverse and fun place! How awesome is that?!

I’m not a huge risk taker when it comes to my clothes so I l ike to find a statement ring to elevate my basic ensemble. This is definitely that ring where everyone notices it and loves it! It might also come in handy for self-defense. Ha!
