Don't you wish there were a more elegant way to spew the vitriol of your cranky soul? Locher's has found it. Each of their blouses feature such delicate phrases as "Good Luck, Motherf***er" (sans censoring, of course), "I like it rough," and "I really need a f**king coffee" (pictured above), rendered in dainty embroidery and beset with little flowery bits on 1940s-inspired designs.
I'm not sure I have the guts (or the budget - you're looking at around $75-80 each) to wear much of Locher's fare in public, but I may have to work on that.

There's nothing I love more than art deco (until my next post), and this folding bar at the Art Deco Collection is worthy of the label.
Check out the details on this baby:
If I lived in the Bay Area and had some extra lunch money, I'd probably see about procuring this for myself. I'd find a reason to justify it. Somehow.
More about the above and other deco goodies here.

I found a recipe for hot spicy chocolate that's really something. I'm not a chocoholic by any definition, but this? Seriously good stuff.
As pictured above, I added an extra pinch of cayenne (you read that right) and cinnamon to mine because I like my spices best when in need of a fire extinguisher, but the base recipe's fine as is. And you can get that recipe here.
I'm a graphic designer and a girly-girl in denial. My weakness? The color brown. Wait, it gets worse. Brown with pastels.
And that's primarily what this blog is about. It's my appreciation - as a designer and as a chick - for all things brown. Brown and pink. Brown and powder blue. Brown and brown. Whatever. If it's brown, it's here. With exceptions, of course, because I'm a lady. (Oh, come on. Like you weren't thinking it, too. Well, anyway, you're thinking it now.)
Have you seen something eye-catching that would be suitable? Send it to me at brownjournal@crookedsixpence.com, and if I like it, I'll post it.
