No Soup For You!

The Soup Nazi to come to Columbus!

Article from this weeks Columbus Alive:

Hey Seinfeld fans, have your money ready, pick the soup you want and move to the extreme left after ordering: The Soup Nazi is coming to Columbus.

The Original SoupMan's first Ohio franchise is slated to open early next year in the Shoppes at 5th Avenue, a new retail center near Grandview. The chain was started in New York by Al Yeganeh, the real-life chef immortalized as the sitcom's Soup Nazi.

Yeganeh really plays up the Seinfeld connection and his character's reputation as a persnickety perfectionist. Check out the website at originalsoupman.com—the dude even looks like the Soup Nazi (although without a mustache).

The menu promises a changing selection of soups based on market availability, including a variety of spicy chilis (beef, chicken, mushroom), seafood bisques, vegetarian bean soups, gumbo, goulash and even chilled soups in season.

Oui Dior!

Je suis follement dans l'amour avec ces anneaux (I'm madly in love with these rings) ... available here.

CRUMBS!

While in New York yesterday for work I visited Crumbs bake shop (located near Bryant Park) and purchased a few cupcakes for me and Pete. Luckily they survived the rain and the flight home, because they were delicious!

Superuse

Superuse is an online community of designers, architects and everybody else who is interested in inventive ways of recycling. This (previously featured on Poppytalk) is by far my favorite post! A typewriter converted into a waffle iron ... it's truly an ingenious and delightful idea!

Sooo pretty...

...I realize I've been posting a lot of single items posts lately (which is something I try not to do) however these Chloe shoes are too good to be true and deserve a post!

Pretty in Pink.

Pink dress by Milly. Available here.

Perfection..

This Chris Benz jacket is amazing :)

A perfect gift!

Fashion has never been simpler; just choose a size! Included in each custom Grab Bag Tote will be 10 pieces-items found in the Puella store and also some surprises you can't find anywhere, from camis, tees, tanks and dresses. With an orginal retail value anywhere from $700-800, you can purchase the tote for $150.

Grab Bags are assorted and limited quantities are available. No returns are allowed, so if something isn't to your liking or doesn't quite fit, share your Puella with a friend.

Perhaps this is the one...

...that Pete and I will agree on!? Pete (my boyfriend) loves to mountain bike, and now wants to get me a bike so I can start going with him. The problem is I have NO desire to go off-roading, and I want a vintage bike not a mountain bike. Available here.

My new polka-dot bikini!

I can count the number of times I've been to the pool this summer on two hands, but since I'm going to Florida soon on vacation (with my boyfriends family) I thought I needed a new (somewhat conservative) bathing suit! Here's what I got:
Now lets hope it fits! Available here.

Item of the week: 18th Amendment Jeans

I'm in love with these High waisted flare jeans ... they are retro style perfection, and I can't get enough!!

Available here.

ROBEEZ!

These quite possibly are the cutest baby shoes I've ever seen! My nephew Jonah is the proud new owner of the firing breathing dragons (thanks to his aunt Danielle). Here are a few of my other favorites!

Fall must haves: Marc by Marc Jacobs.

I'm crazy about Marc by Marc Jacobs fall line (especially this sweetly feminine cordaroy coat.) These pieces and more available here.

Book Wall.

My boyfriend and I are in the process of looking for a house and this reminds me so much of a room that we would want ... as my boyfriend has more books than anyone I know (except for maybe my brother-in-law?!). This image is from Living etc. via Poppytalk.

J.Crew Fall Shoes...

... make we want to get dressed up and go to a party!

Not your average USB...

Spice up the life of you computer with this USB humping dog. Simply plug it into your USB port, and he'll start humping away. I think these are absolutely hilarious! Available here.
