What I Want This Weekend, February 3rd, 2012

Here are some pretty things I've come across this week,

from some blog

or catalog

or friend

or magazine

or another;

or just from my own browsing&shopping&surfing,

that I need to convince My Prince to dole out the cash for...

Textured Sweater in Black by Splendid

I'd probably wear this with a black sleeveless top underneath it. With all of the constant weather changes this year, lightweight layering is pretty much the best way to go!

(& I never even heard whether that groundhog saw his shadow...)

"Love Conquers All" Code Double Wrap Bracelet in Periwinkle by Antoinette Lee Designs

So cute for a Valentine's Day statement, but perfectly classic for anytime, too!

Pink&Green Paper Butterflies Wall Decor by Simply Chic Lily

Pretty Little Bare Feet's bedroom is mostly gender-neutral - which is good, because one day we (may) let her & My Little Man share it. There are lots of touches of femininity, though, such as the pink minky glider rocker & ottoman, & several pieces of ballerina art on the walls. Pretty Little Bare Feet herself gets more&more girly every day, & I know she'd be fascinated by these 3D butterflies on her bedroom walls. They could also be used as beautiful decor for a party!

Bobbi Brown Dress for Success Scarf by Echo Design

Bobbi Brown, one of my favorites, co-designed this limited edition scarf with Echo Design (known for their fabulous scarves). Sales from the scarf benefit the organization Dress for Success, & what I really love is that they are straightforward about how much actually goes to the nonprofit - $20 for each scarf, which is a pretty generous donation! Read more about it here.

(Also, it's just a really, really cute scarf that would effortlessly add style to basics.)

Colorful Plush Alphabet Magnets by Beeper Bebe

I know all of y'all fellow mamas probably have the obligatory alphabet magnets. & some of you are probably in the same boat that I'm in - your preschooler has completely taken over the refrigerator door, & you're only left with the freezer door! ;)

(Okay, & I admit that I use some of the side of the refrigerator, too - hey, we get a lot of really cute invitations & photos, & the memo board on the pantry door can only hold so much!)

But I think such priceless works of art should be complemented by stinkin' cute magnets like this set, rather than the little primary-colored plastic ones, right?!

T.G.I.F.! What do YOU want this weekend?
