There is a super hot party coming up next week that I helped plan (more info here), and I’m considering buying this dress for it. Whatcha think?

Another Threadless tee entry that appears to have never been made, after 782 votes and an average of only 1.91 out of 5. Jeez, people are harsh. It’s just a t-shirt.

“ Later that afternoon, at the outdoor Brooklyn Flea Market in Fort Greene, which was trending on FourSquare at the time with 19 check-ins, proud BroBos roamed about picking through jewelry, antiques and records and partaking of the luxury popsicles on offer at the People’s Pops stand. A young woman remarked to a friend, ‘I only like sour ales,’ and Neutral Milk Hotel blared from a boom box set up in a booth selling vintage toys. Matt Kirsch, the creator of an excellent Web TV show set in Brooklyn, called Duder, searched for owl trinkets to add to the collection he has in his Kensington apartment. ‘I guess it’s pretty typical, but I like owls,’ he explained. ”

This Observer article made me smirk a smug Manhattan-dwelling smirk. A couple more gems:

“It takes a certain amount of energy to do all these fabulous Brooklyn things. … I’d rather just sort of go to the Gap and come home. I’m not really engaged by, like, playing Frisbee and riding bikes.” -Lizzie Widdicombe, an editorial assistant for The New Yorker in her 20s who lives in the East Village

“Living in Manhattan presents an interesting challenge: to always be confronted by people who have really won.” -a young woman who recently graduated from N.Y.U. and considered moving to Kensington before deciding she just couldn’t leave the island.

Such is my behavior on the internet that I often jump around so much, on so many millions of tabs, that I find pages I at some point opened and have no idea how I got to them. It impressed some lady at jury duty enough to tell me I was “really good at the internet,” but it’s not the best practice for crediting owls I find. So I’m not sure how I landed on the Flickr set called Portland, Oregon that includes this hot vest. But here it is. The photographer is clearly a fellow owl enthusiast, ‘cause the other photo is of her birthday cake.

Sticking to the theme of prominent owl eyeballs today, here is an amazing upper leg tattoo of an owl that is all eyes.

These cards from Jenn Ski caught my radar after the artist’s New Hampshire home was featured in another one of those Apartment Therapy home tours that always make me feel so insecure about my inferior interiors.
