I want to wear an arm full of Hannah Carlyle’s multicolored resin bangles with a head-to-toe black outfit. They’re much too colorful and swirly to be enjoyed any other way! (via Shiny Squirrel)

Consumerism that gives back and makes you feel good? Yes! Kallie Dovel founded 31 Bits after a visit to Uganda when she was inspired to help talented women market their jewelry. She brought three friends on board to help and they began purchasing goods from six women every month. Now they’re up to 99 women and a fantastic online marketplace full of beaded jewelry that’s made from recycled paper. You can read more about what they’re doing in Uganda right here. Beautiful pieces for a beautiful cause.

You all were so gracious and supportive when I lost my job last month, it’s only fair I tell you about my next step that begins tomorrow. I’m heading off to New York for a long-term freelance job that will keep me there through the end of the year! Exciting stuff, for sure. I’m subletting a sweet little studio with a full kitchen in Fort Greene, Brooklyn and I couldn’t be more thrilled. After doing a fast tally, I realized I have many more friends in NYC than OKC and I’m looking forward to catching up with every single one while in town. I’ll keep you posted as everything unfolds, but in the meantime I hope you’ll forgive me if things slow down just the tiniest bit for the next week as I get adjusted to my new digs and schedule. Until then, here are a boatload of good things to keep you going.

02/ knit a sweater, help a penguin in need

04/ deconstructed map art of Italy

99% sure I’m behind on these Lulu Frost for JCrew art deco jewelry pieces, but I’m digging the resurgence of Great Gatsby style so I’m sharing regardless. I’d like four through six on my wrist, please!

These woven fabric necklaces from nanoukiko are just begging to be added to my fall wardrobe. They remind me of all things knit and warm. (via Erica)
