HC Eco-Friendly Foodie Gift Guide by Jenni Kayne
12 . 22 . 14I love receiving fashion designer Jenni Kayne‘s blog Rip + Tan, named after her children. It’s full of healthy recipes, interesting profiles, and eco-friendly advice.

Christmas Chic
12 . 21 . 13Finding out who designed a room you found on tumblr is like a treasure hunt. But sometimes it’s worth the effort.
