Linkasaurus! 2.18.09

Welcome to the post-Valentine’s Day, ultra-illustrated edition of Linkasaurus! Enjoy the following posts from amazing bloggers, please.

First and foremost, Jennifer Nicole (previously of Viva La Resolution!) has started her own blog, Awakened Aesthetic, where you can fill up on all the indie-designer goodness your little heart can take. Not just fashion, but I believe she’ll be doing housewares and, well, anything else that looks good, too! Go one over and show her some commentastic love!


Birdie from Bonne Vie has launched a contest demanding your amazing haiku skills in trade for this adorable elephant from an Etsy seller. Here is my entry:

Ele-garlic-raffe
The mystic culinary
animal of love

Think you can do better? (You likely can. C’mon. Ele-garlic-raffe?) Go enter ASAP!


Illustrator and blogger, Star St. Germain of This is Star is releasing some of her [amazing] journal illustrations for between $5 and $50! I strongly suggest throwing one up behind some frameless plexi-glass and admiring it daily.

I want to be Lulu and your Mom when I grow up.

Freya at Fish Nor Fowl offers up some tips on how to make any day better. I highly advise writing in your favorite color all day, it’s a sure thing.


Princess Poochie of Shoe Daydreams uncovers a nightmare.


Guest poster and author, Lily Koppel writes on Mademoiselle Robot about her new book, which chronicles her discovery of a 1930’s diary, and rediscovery of herself… A must-read!

A little known fact about me: I’m totally addicted to fashion illustration. I can’t actually do it, but I love looking at it. Queen Michelle of Kingdom of Style has introduced me to yet another artist that I’m loving, Cassandra Rhodin.


Sophia of Chic and Charming has launched a very saucy shop called Boudoir Betty, full of delicious, sassy burlesque-style accoutrements.


Misha over at Dusty Dress posted a ton of really amazing protest-themed fashion photographs that I’m totally smitten with. What a cool idea!

Enjoy!

Probably watching Netflix.
