I just had to get these darling little salt and pepper shakers from Anthropologie this weekend. They remind me of a little delicate owl candle holder we had when I was little, just about the same size and everything. These little guys are made in Japan of porcelain and are gray, with brown little feet and beaks. Forcute!

Just like calendars, I cant get enough of planners. Not that Im particularly diligent about keeping them up to date, they are something that everone should really have. Whats more fun than a planner with a little bit of personal expression thrown in? This great line by Taschen includes themes for anyone, including Cuban style, historic maps, photos from Paris, African culture, as well as numerous great artists such as Gaudi, Botero, and Kahlo. Holidays from around the world are included on the calendar for an especially international flair.

Sigh…as if I couldn’t be more obsessed with freddy & ma, they had to go and introduce a line of pillows and plates, yes plates! Now I’ll never be able to get off the computer! Select from dozens and dozens of colorful and ever-changing prints for your next purchase. Not only do they use quality materials, these new additions are also a really great price, and made in the USA to boot!

Given that we are long into the digital age, with our megapixel cameras, battery packs and memory cards, wouldnt it be nice to put together an old fashioned photo album of our loved ones? This great fabric owl print album has 24 lined pages and 8.25″ by 6.25″ from auto. Made in Italy.

I just love the vintage feel of this cushy leather wallet made by Pagliei. The button tufted exterior is secured with a snap, and inside it features numerous credit card slots, a place for your coins, and a deep pocket for your bills. Given its medium size, it can double as a wallet as well as a clutch. Platinum. Made in Bolivia.

I just love night lights, but I can never seem to find one that is just right for me. Maybe becase there are so many great ones out there. There is something that is so warm about their little glow. This adorable night light features a wild-eared jackrabbit over a pink glass backdrop. This one is just right! ($45)

For those of you looking for a little scare this halloween, this shower curtain is about perfect. I’m getting a little scared just looking at it. From Spain’s very own Vincon, the coolest store ever.

You have not smelled anything so good. I couldn’t believe how much this smelled like real apples when I saw it in the store. A generous sized candle, its so fun for fall, and would be a cute little addition to any room. ($15)

I just love these earrings from Viv & Ingrid. Dark purple stones line the woven gold hoops. They would look great with just about anything this fall. Will all the silver jewelry Ive acquired over the years, its nice to add back in a few gold-toned pieces now and then.
