this week: ugly ass things on the internet

Like many men and women of Americaland, I spend a good amount of time window e-shopping. In my research I encounter some u g l y things. Why do these exist? No one knows. 

1. In case you want to look like a fuzzy old car sponge, Forever 21 has knitted a cardigan and retails it for $30.  

2. I don't even know what Madewell was trying to achieve with this one. Common, Madewell. You're better than that.

3. If you're ever unsure if your outfit is cute, quickly log on to ASOS and look in their sale section. Odds are you will find something that defies human understanding. This leopard print parka is no exception. There is no WAY that model was happy to wear that. Fake smile. 

                                                         

h&m home section MADNESS

Okay, so apparently I'm late to the game here but I discovered this week that H&M has launched their  home section for the US market. The bummer is that it's online only (totes bumz). I of course immediately went to the site and picked out the things I'd love to order. I'm so skeptical about online ordering though (unless you're ASOS and I can return things easily...they rock). Check out my faves linked below:

1. Gold container

2. Awesome cotton robe (pure cotton robes are oddly hard to find, and when you find then, they're expensive)

3. Happy yellow basket

4. Cotton rug . It is sort of hard to find 100% woven cotton rugs. Usually EQ3 or West Elm have a small selection in the summer, but they're pricey. I like thinner cotton rugs in the bathroom. Since I'm allergic to wool (and affordable rugs usually have coarse crappy wool), I have to search for the cotton.

5. Catch-all storage

6. Graphic hand towel

7. Napkins? Put a bird on it!

8. Beetle dish cloth

9. Tree branch mug (how awesome would this be for pens and pencils on your office desk?)

AND THE THING I WANT MOST: 10. Plastic box. Come on...so pretty!
