I cannot lie, I’m not consistently a Wes Anderson fan (two exceptions are The Darjeeling Limited and the following trailer) but this looks adorable. I love movies that look like they at one time actually happened, and children protagonists who can actually carry the weight of a feature-length film (also see: Super 8).

Bzzzz! We’ll see who brings in more honey!

I may not be the fanciest lady in the world but drinking hot chocolate and watching 13 going on 30 really gets me in the mood for a reverse french manicure. Plus, it’s not like I have long, luxurious nails or anything, so this just goes to show ‘normal nail’ ladies can have semi-fancy mani’s too. (Note the super fancy Sally Hansen for Rite Aid nail polish.)

I blame this largely on AnnaMarie Tendler, whose tumblr I have been following for many months with glee. She gives me hope that one day I will be this adorable.

lulz I look like Stefon.

I can’t believe that I’ve never come across these guys before on my neverending quest for free amazing fonts.

The Lost Type Co-op has an amazing collection of free, high-quality (mostly) decorative fonts.

Some of my favorite free fonts, all of these are from FontSquirrel and ready for @font-face implementation at the drop of a hat! Bam!

Megalopolis Extra
I love the ligature opportunities with this guy. God bless OpenType!

Chunk Five
Probably my favorite all-time (maybe?) slab. Perfectly in-your-face!

Quicksand
Love the light, airy feel—plus the swashed ‘Q.’ Look out for the gorgeous dashed version. So easy to use in so many designs! The bold and bold-oblique versions were kind of an afterthought, but this dude shouldn’t be used in excess anyway.

Museo Slab
Museo is certainly growing in popularity within the design community, but I’m a fan of it’s slabbed version. Because I like slabs. Sue me.

St. Marie
I literally just noticed this guy now, but I love the thin slab! This is an elegant combination of Archer and Caecilia—both are some of my faves.
