Happy Friday! Another weekend ahead — yay! This one is a busy one for me. I'm co-chairing the 2011 Student Communications Career Conference for New York Women in Communications. We are so lucky to have a fantastic line-up of panelists, not to mention keynote speaker Ann Shoket from Seventeen. I hope everyone has a lovely weekend ahead. Here, to get it started right, a few happy posts from around the web:
Coco draws.
My next read.
Time to twirl.

Ralphie-approved holiday cards.
A (different kind of) chandelier.
Red. Red. More red.
City of light.
New York jazz.
A thousand words.
Dandelion dreams.

Glitter nail polish
Love it or hate it? Would you consider wearing glitter polish on your nails? I have to admit — initially, I wasn't a fan of the idea, but after seeing the pics above, I think it can look tasteful. Even fancy. During the holiday season, it seems like a great way to add sparkle to your look.

I want candy!
Blame my addiction to Sugar Heaven in Boston — when I recently discovered Dewey's Candy Store in Brooklyn Heights, I was over the moon! This adorable shop, located right next to the Brooklyn Bridge, is stocked with more sugary goodness than you could possible imagine. Choose from chocolate-covered gummy bears (my fave), swedish fish, and more. And if you don't believe me, take your cue from the Gap. Dewey's is the backdrop for Gap Kids' Holiday 2011 "I Want Candy" commercial. So cute!

Holiday sparkles
Do you send out holiday cards in the mail? If so, how do you choose which card to send? I love spending hours finding exactly the right one. I usually pick a variety — there are so many unique designs to choose from! This year, I'm leaning towards the cards pictured above from Dear Lola. "Have a sparkly holiday season" is exactly what I want to say. It's a message that's sweet, simple and stylish all at the same time.
To my friends and family, if this card shows up in your mailbox, pretend to be surprised! :)

The 'Seal' of approval
This made me laugh out loud when I saw it. What a clever take on the "Seal" of approval! Wishing everyone a happy start to their week. :)

The weekend is here!
Happy Friday! I can't believe how quickly this week went by. I always feel this way when Thanksgiving starts to approach — lots to do and so little time to do it in! What do you have planned for the next couple of days off? As you know, I'm a huge fan of live jazz, and this weekend, some friends and I are doing a fancy night out at Blue Smoke. I can't wait! Here, to get your weekend started right, a few happy posts from around the web:

DIY movie night
Is there anything better than a movie night in? Next time you plan one, take your cue from the big screen party above. The host (Camille Styles) didn't let a single detail go by. From the authentic popcorn containers to the vintage movie poster decor, this rooftop party was a success from the start. I especially love the idea to select which movie will be shown democratically by secret ballot. In this case, it was a themed selection in honor of Halloween. If you were hosting a movie night, what films would make your top five list to show?
