disco noir

: : my lovely friend .maiya. shared the website of a friend of hers who has recently launched a handbag and furniture line. I love their attention to detail and pop of color.
check out .disco noir.

: : every year, around this time, a big group of our friends head up to a house on a river in new hampshire where we spend the weekend, hiking, reading, cooking, drinking and hanging out by the campfire outside. we have a great time! new hampshire is beautiful this time of the year. we're leaving in a few hours. I can't wait.

these photos from .toast. (via .kurbits.) really capture the fall mood.

: : .bando. has a new black label out. lovely pieces. however I do feel that their prices are a little excessive.

: : I LOVE .sanna annukka. Her new online store opens in November. Be on the look out.

: : I like these images inspired by Sweden's colors, yellow and blue, by Lo Bjurulf for Elle interiör (found via .design delight.)
