Worthy reads roundup – Tough accessories for the lady, wood shop for all ages,and Hermes la Maison furnishings line

April 3, 2011

Hope you had a great week lovelies!

Here is what happened at Chic ‘n Cheap Living this week:
– Photo love – Keep moving and don’t stay still!
– Can a lady wear skull, snake, and wolf jewelry/accessories? Sure and here are some great choices
Hermes la maison furnishings line – scarves brought to life and a nice place to relax on the Left Bank
– J.E.M. Apparel winner and one of my favorite (sometimes vegan recipes) – roasted vegetables with orzo
DIY photo envelope liners – what a lovely, personal touch!
Here are some worthy reads from blogger buddies and beyond:
– I used to exclusively rock ponytails until sometime after college. Β It’s coming back in the fall/winter 2011/2012 hairstyle trend (via Marc Jacobs)Β – a classic look never goes out of style.

– People of all ages are attending carpentry and other shop classes. Β I remember woodshop class back in the day and think it’d be really cool to be more adept at woodworking (ooh to build a great table!)

– Instagram (another reason I want my iPhone soon) has the coolest features – photo sharing, meeting other users, and turning photos into stickers, mugs, and prints

– Mmm, Ruffled Rose posted these scrumptious looking, semi-healthy cookies (err fruit and oatmeal makes it better right?) and I would love to try these cranberry, pecan, and oatmeal cookies soon!

little luxury list

    The ponytail coming back means that I will be on trend for a while – my hair usually starts down and ends up being pulled up mid-day! πŸ˜‰

    Great choice of links. I love the cranberry and pecan combo

    I was so excited about the Instagram resources because I use it all the time!
    And I agree, I would love to know how to make a table. I’m pretty sure I made the absolute easiest thing there was to make in high school shop class.
