Valentine's Day Tip: Spend Nothing at Kate Spade

This is the best Valentine's Day e-card ever in the world, mostly because I'm obsessed with candy buttons. If you sent this to me, I would luv u forever, too.

If this one's not quite your bag, there are more free e-cards where this came from! Kate Spade just launched a selection that she commissioned a varietyof artists to do up for her. You can browse them all here.

My other favorites, after the jump:

Bring the Boutique to Your Bedroom

My First-Stop Shops for Home Decor Pieces:

Target (no doubt)
HomeGoods
Pier 1 Imports
The Container Store
Modern Materialist (which, of course, contains my favorite pieces from Etsy, Fred Flare, Supermarket, Urban Outfitters, etc.)

If you're shopping online, perhaps you miss the ambience of the brick-and-mortar shop?

Mood Music

I've gotten to that point (again) where I'm sorta sick of everything in my iTunes library. Usually , when this happens, I turn to Pandora, which is great at giving my exactly what I want. Still, it hardly ever shows me anything new.

Consequently, I thought the timing fortuitous when I caught Book of Joe's post on youlicense and, more specifically, their page that allow you to search for new music based upon the weather.
