Lost & Fawned

I mentioned to someone else that when I travel I always bring my bright yellow headphones, but I don’t think they understood that I wasn’t fooling around when I said bright yellow.  I got these headphones while I was writing my thesis (since retail therapy was my main vice to beat the stress) and wore them while I was in the lab to be a subtle signal to classmates that I was indisposed.  I found they also worked pretty well on planes to give the same message to talkative seatmates.

I got mine at a bike store in Columbus, Ohio called Paradise Garage (stop in if you are ever in C-bus, they have great clothes and bikes) but you can get them online on WeSC’s website.  I just saw the minty green ones and some of the patterned ones, but I’m not ready to replace my dandelion yellow ones quite yet.

The ever-fabulous Penny over at Penny Luxe posted about her flying necessities today and seeing as I have a trip coming up in the very near future I figured I would share a few of my travel accessories that get me through the flight from Ohio to Oregon (which I fly a few times a year).

I found this bag on etsy in Christy’s Shop quite some time ago and loved the utility of it.  It is loaded with pockets and big enough to hold a decent sized laptop with room to spare.  It’s well made with beautiful materials and of course is classically styled and doesn’t look like you are carrying your groceries around the airport.  I own it in the Sahara Brown but I love it in the Dark Denim as well.

Did I mention the prices?  You’ll need to see them for yourself to believe it.  Shipping of course is a little steep and it does take some time to arrive (though it was quicker than most of my oversea’s purchases) but I found it more than worth it when the bag arrived.

Ever since I laid eyes on this bunny photo by This Years Girl on the front page of etsy I have been entranced with his charm and slight strangeness.  I have a bunny myself (his name is Colonel Brandon) and he really is a very proud gent like the bun in this photo.  Paired with the adorable lamb photo it would make a very sweet Easter gift.  How perfect that they are running a BOGO sale in their shop right now.
