On the Heels of Geometry...
I'm loving these Lo Res heels collection from United Nude. How Frank Gehry-esque! Who knew you could sport your favorite architectural style??

Cool Runnings
If you haven't noticed, I'm super stoked about our trip to Chicago next week, and I've got winter on the brain! With my childhood in Canada and the Mid-west, I really had my fair share of snow sledding experiments (in 4th grade I even broke my leg while doing some casual hill-side sledding at a friend's in Wisconsin), and test-running all sorts of sleds downhill. Funny how some things never change; apparently I'm still in the 4th grade - on the lookout for the hippest most ergonomic sled of the season! And it looks like I've found it... The Zipfy Mini Luge is one of the cutest compact sleds I've ever seen. It promises top-notch safety, easy-as-pie maneuvering, and the most thrilling downhill ride! The small-scale production is the factor that truly steals my heart (at only 3.5 pounds and 13"L x 21"W x 16"H!!), not to mention me being a sucker for all those bright color options!
And if you think the Zipfy is cute, check out it's little brother - Zipfy Junior (ages 3-5)!
New York Magazine wrote about the debut of the Zipfy in 2008 and was quoted having said, "Where the average plastic saucer lumbers down a city-park hillsides like a minibus, [Zipfy] handles more like a Porsche...”.
Croc or Crock?
We're jetting out to Chicago on Sunday to join in a family celebration (my cousin Sarah's wedding!!), and I've been looking around a bit for an easy snow boot for Freida. I stumbled upon these Crocband Gust Boots online, and I think they are rather good-looking for a cheap snow-boot! Plus, they're bound to be as comfortable and indestructible as we all know Crocs are good to be... just wondering if they are as unsupportive as well? Have any of you tried these out on your kids this winter?
Crazy Crib Couture
Have you seen the Baby Suommo line yet? Luxury status has moved far beyond souped-up road vehicles and made its way into our newborn nurseries. With prices ranging from $5,000 - $12,000, this Parisian collection pushes baby luxuries like Bugaboo into the light of bare necessities! :)
But that doesn't negate the fact that they are lovely to look at...
NestRest
How awesome is this??? What a way to redefine words like, cozy corner, reading nook, nesting etc. This even manages to make the classic hammock look muted!
Conjures up images of chilled glasses filled with lemonade, well-worn books; pages rustling in the wind, and romantic balmy summer nights spent nestled with your loved one; beers chilling nearby (don't worry, I'm also wondering why all my daydreams involve beverages)....
These are simply beautiful!!!
