fun little finds

while we're on the subject of my new office, i want to share with you a few of the fun little things i have found for my new space to jazz it up a bit...you'll be surprised, i doubt these things are typically found in a law office! the cool thing though is since we're all "girls" in the office, we're throwing caution to the wind and really decorating our offices how **we** want, tradition be damned! (can't you tell how much fun we're having??).

i love the girls from sex and the city, and when i stumbled upon brooklit's beautiful sketches, i knew i had to have the illustration below framed in my office:


i just love it - all of the ladies in the outfits from the original movie which were brooke's favorites. i also got the next two images - the first one kind of reminded me of me with the curly blonde hair and traditional black dress. the second one is just fun and sassy (kind of reminds me of my sister), and i love the black and white striped dress.



brooke's fabulous work can be bought here. she also has a cute blog which i know you all would enjoy.

i love this colorful desk calendar from dabney lee - you can get it personalized with your monogram (there's tons to pick from) and i know it will add some fun color to my office (as if i need it with that deep purple wall!)


i love using dry erase boards to jot down notes, phone messages and to do lists. this one is practical and fashionable at the same time! this etsy seller has lots of fun white board decals to pick from, as well as chalkboard decals - here's the one i picked up:


finally, though i haven't gotten them yet, i'll probably end up using the "keep calm and carry on" and "live what you love" letterpress posters. yes, these are all over the internet, but i think they are fitting and inspirational messages for an office. here's a couple that i am eyeing, that can be found here and here:



i realize that this is a random assortment of mismatched things, but i really do think it will all go together and am so excited to get started working on my girly office!
