Today is Saturday! Thank goodness for the weekend - especially a long one provided by the beautiful Labor Day.

Here are a list of some of my favorite news, articles, and pictures from this week:

My mom has been calling her Hello Miss Kitty for years by accident - I guess she was more right than I thought!!

This is a great article discussing the good and bad of Undercover Colors, a nail polish that may show date rape drugs in drinks.

Probably the silliest thing I saw on the Internet all week - and it's real. If only I lived in Russia!

Rookie is the greatest website on the WWW - period. Anything that they write is gold. Need some fashion inspiration? Get it from these fabulous cult leaders who were anything but shy (channeling my inner Tammy Faye this weekend for sure).

My aunt is a fabulous crafter - she also blogs and does a lot of design research! She sent me this link and I was completely blown away by the amazing detail and skill it takes to make these floral carpets. Gorgeous!
