friday favorites.

here are my favorites for this week:

• cîroc vodka. did you know i'm a total vodka whore gal? oh yes indeedy, i am. times get rough and it's ketel one or hangar one (either one) for me. i'm not ashamed. anyway, this vodka is super smooth and made from grapes. how weird is that? it's not available everywhere, but check your local watering hole or liquor store: it's worth it. (oh and i love that it's pronounced like "chirac.") about $30.

• talla clothing. i'm in love with her designs. everything is so gorgeous. and! items are handmade and made at a "safe haven for educating and nurturing women and children." i love feel-good purchases! sale items start at five bucks!

• moleskine sketchbook. i suspect just by owning one of these dandies, i'll become a famous writer/artiste/whatever. and it's mol-a-skeen'-a, ok? not "mole-skin" like i've been saying to myself. [via da*xiang.] $15.

• velvet + satin collar. i realize that there's all this talk about humanizing pets and blah blah blah, but do you think a collar called "precious lil' bedbug" really does that much harm to the universe? $32.

• nesting bowls. i have an obsession with all things that nest: bowls, tables, storage containers, prep bowls (ok, not everything. hate the birds). the shape of these bowls are quite attractive to my little eye. $41.
