The Sunday Set. Blogging for lazy people who love Paris.

No, these aren't Instagrammed pictures of some hipster's pre-Hostel European vacation. This is Paris in 1914 in COLOR, y'all.  That's some pretty fancy technology and shit right there.



Is that Satine in the top window?!!

HE HAS A PEG LEG, Y'ALL!  I've never seen one in real life.  That's kind of a terrible statement but I'm pretty sure they don't actually give people peg legs anymore unless they specifically ask for one.  

You know, if they are a full time pirate impersonator or something...  

They could write it off on their taxes...

The Sunday Set. With a rogue alien ship...

I don't know about y'all but I'm Ranched out!  Which is really shitty because I actually live here which makes this really even more depressing and surreal.  So let's do what we come to the internet for - lust after houses that you DON'T live in. 

So behold!  Here's an image dump of things from Pinterest this week that I thought were pretty!

If that Ranch looked like this I'd probably blog about it every damn day and never get tired of it.

This is totally me standing at the fake door of the Ranch wishing you a saucy weekend.

Or looking for an alien ship...

*whispers*... the TARDIS...

The Sunday Set inspired by Dr. Bronner's gift of the firecrotch.

To round out this week's unintentional theme, here's an image dump of all my secret hobo hippie dreams so you too can layer on all your best jewelry and spend your Friday twirling like Stevie Nicks.  I'll let you borrow a gauze skirt if yours is in the laundry.  


Obviously that's a self portrait in the first picture...

[MS sidebar: if I haven't told you, I have a weakness for '70s landscape photography.  If you ever see a vintage book on ebay about America's amber waves of grain or grizzly mountain shots that a poor man's National Geographic would publish, alert a Madame immediately.]

I think I've officially turned into this lady now:

I might actually have that scarf...  I definitely have those earrings.  I do not have that tummy.


But I am going to stop now before these images land me in some expose as an example of white people and cultural misappropriation along with Urban Outfitters and every editorial magazine shoot of the last two years.


Next week I promise no more hippies.  We'll be back to whatever it is that I normally blog about around here.  But for now I TWIRL!

The Sunday Set: Blogging for lazy people. And nerdy cavewomen.

I'm pretty sure this week was somehow located in a wormhole of slow time because gaaaawwwwddd can't I just eat some leftover clearance candy from Easter yet??  I deserve a medal of awesomeness (or a tshirt from the AIA: American Institute of Awesome?!) for just having survived it upright.  


Upright counts as laying on the couch, right?!


Good.


My week - all 1200 days of it - has been a lot of pretty things that I'm too tired to do anything but grunt at like a (partially drunk) cavewoman.  All that's sprinkled with a bunch of super nerd stuff.  Yeah, it doesn't make any sense to me either.  Come join me as we reminisce!
