UGUiSU

I just want to talk a little bit more about the balloons in yesterday's post. I am IN LOVE with the shop I bought them from, and there are so many other cute little things I wish I could buy from them.

The shop is UGUiSU and they sell stationary and gifts from Japan, including the washi paper masking tape that has been super popular with scrapbookers lately.

A while back I bought an assortment of their cute little paper balloons to hang in Kirah's room.

My favorite is the huge puffer fish!



They all came in one big, colorful package, and one of the balloon sets came with a party blower as well, so you can imagine how much fun Kirah had opening up that present and looking at everything.

I don't know what I would use half of their pretty little things for, but I love all of them.



Definitely check it out - if only for the eye candy.

Boots and mini boots

As I mentioned before, little whispers of autumn in the air make me crazy for all of the little joys of the season. Starbucks has released their fall beverages (hello again, pumpkin spice my love), it was cold enough to steal my husband's stripey scarf last week, and I'm planning an apple orchard trip with the fam. I'm giddy.

Fall item #3,407,012 that makes me all excitable: boots! I'm on the lookout for some good ones right now. Some ankle boots for me and something cute for everyday for the kidlet. One pair in particular is driving me crazy, but I've got other, more important things to spend money on right now.

Anyway, here are my infatuations:


Villie, Dee Dee, Leaftops, Studded Suede.



Sweater knits, Line Dance, Neon zippers, Elephants.

Love them? Hate them? Got any other pairs I should know about? Comment and let me know ;)

Style Inspiration

This is old news, for sure, but have you SEEN Katie Holmes and little Suri? Everywhere they go they look adorable.



Katie has the kind of style that makes me drool, and the way she coordinates with her daughter without looking matchy-matchy, well, it makes me want to sit in my closet with Kirah and play dress-up all day.



Now I'm not commenting on her life choices or her parenting style (lipstick on a four year old?!). It's just those outfits that have me swooning.



Oh, to look perfect and polished every time you step out the door.



*Sigh* I'm in love.

What about you? Who are your mommy baby style icons? Celebs or no?
