my san francisco packing list

i'm off to san francisco for the weekend and i could not be more excited. going to spend some much needed QT with my bff katie. I was intending to share my packing list for a spring weekend in the foggy city...which is SO hard to dress for...but after a COMPLETELY insane week at work and dinner with a friend visiting from Boston it totally slipped my mind until after my bag was packed and zipped! oops!i plan to do a lot of shopping at my fave SF boutiques and in katie's closet of course. Sorry for the lame Iphone post (from my bed) and I'll be back Monday.

framing my past with ork posters

our kitchen/dining area is allllllmost completely decorated and it is making me very happy. i bought four black and white posters from ork a really long time ago and since most of them are non-standard sizes i have been dying to get them framed. timing worked out perfectly and i was able to take advantage of a 60% off custom framing coupon at michael's and use some gift cards from santa.




you're probably wondering why i chose the cities i did, right? they all represent a city where we've lived in the past. hopefully the artist will continue expanding her collection to one day include baltimore and austin.

about ork: To us, it's not just posters. To us it's about finding where we are, where we've been and where we want to go. In the most humble manner, we can only hope it's that for you too. Ork Posters was born when I embarked on a search for a neighborhood poster that fit my taste for good design and typography, simplicity, and originality. My hunt came up empty. As a result, I designed the original Chicago poster in the summer of 2007 for myself.

each city also comes in multiple colors and the selections are really pretty. check them out! oh, and click here for more info on our shmancy vintage 4/5 subway sign.
