If I told you my city was hit with not only an earthquake this week, but also a hurricane, would it be enough to forgive my lack of posting? If so, thanks. If not, well, it’s my blog and I do what I want.

Mr. Husband, dog, and I made it through the week alive, and with access to electricity. I say we’ve come out victorious. Here’s a few things (some of which, like this week, are a bit on the wild side):

(1) The back of a bear, by Jill Greenberg; (2) a little Tolkien, via Glitter Guide; (3) Leopard loafers from J.Crew; (4) a fantastic photo by Valeria Lazareva; (5) really excellent bag.
