em elsewhere

i worked on some fun guest posts for two of my favorite bloggers and

they both went live yesterday - what are the odds?

the first is a style Q&A with Elaine of Clothed Much.

i admire her style so much, it's effortlessly chic, always modest, and she truly lives by the less is more motto. she must purge quite a bit because her closet is beautifully edited.

it has totally inspired me to use this approach in my own life.

you must love it, have use for it - or get rid of it.

as well as the ins and outs of my styling career.

the second post is an Etsy Roundup for Kirsten of 6th Street Design School. Kirsten and I grew up together and she is the most kind person. it's been so fun to watch her build her empire, she works so hard and has so much talent. on top of that she has always been so supportive of the handmade community and her huge archive of Etsy roundups is proof! she recently had her second baby and i was thrilled to give her a break to snuggle.

my round up is all vintage mid-century seating. it was totally selfish because at the time of the post i was scouring the world for new dining chairs... two birds with one stone! as of yesterday all these listings were still available and most of them are killer deals. head to her blog for all the links!

thanks girls for having me!
