The weekend is here!

Such pretty snow scenes from the city that never sleeps! I love how even the pace of New York City slows down with the weather. On that note, I'm off to Miami for a four day weekend to toast my 'friend'-iversary with my BFF. It's a Glamour magazine-inspired idea: last April, in their friendship issue, they suggested setting aside time to celebrate your friendships, just like you would with any important relationship in your life. Thanks Glamour for the fantastic idea! I'll be back next week, but to help you get an early start to your weekend, a few happy posts from around the web:

What a difference good architecture can make!

How cool are these skeleton key wedding invites?

Scenes from a French birthday party.

I'm a Virgo — what star sign are you?

It's a Girl Thing.

In life, it's always important to play your cards right.

A mountain view.

I want a pair of yellow shorts.

The perfect toast. 

Down on the Corner, a cappella-style!
