Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year! The Rose Bowl and Tournament of Roses Parade are one of my favorite NY traditions, particularly because they’re local, my love of football, and I used to decorate floats for a number of years. The Junior Rose Bowl is a thing of history now, but Miss JRB sure looks adorable.
A very big thank you to everyone who’s commented, liked, followed, or quietly read this site during the year. I immensely appreciate it. Cheers to 2013!

This month’s Rose Bowl Flea finds:
Row 1// Oversize MLB posters// Baseball board game

Weekend happenings//
+ Stocking up. + Family cookie painting.
+ Celebrating Independence with s’mores. + Getty architecture.
+ Purging old magazines. + A morning message.
Other notes//
+ I made an afternoon trip to the Getty Museum to see a few of the latest exhibits and for general inspiration. Some of those images will be shared later in the week.
+ At one point, I owned nearly every single issue of Teen Vogue. I’m still in the process of recycling them (going through 2005-2006 issues currently), and it’s such a kick to see how much has changed in less than a decade.
+ Visited the Rose Bowl Flea, again, yesterday. Darn hot out there!
+ Anyone watch Wimbledon? Stoked with the singles’ outcome.
