Neon Decor
As the weather gets warmer (in L.A., anyway!) design inevitably gets brighter. I loved these photos from Apartment Therapy's recent feature on the return of neon in interior design. Here are a couple of my favorite rooms from the feature:

Kate Spade Dubs 2012 'The Year of Pattern'
Last year, Kate Spade introduced new items in their collection through a monthly feature called color of the month. From January through December, Kate Spade amped up 2011 with hues that ranged from deep cobalt to sunny yellow. This year, Kate Spade shook things up by announcing that they will feature a pattern each month. The first pattern of 2012 is stripes, a pattern I truly adore. Check out this set I made on Polyvore (my first one!). It contains some some of my favorite striped items-including a bag featured in Step Out in Stripes!

Shut Up and Play The Hits
"When you start a band, do you imagine how it will end?"
James Murphy, the frontman behind the non-stop dance party that was LCD Soundsystem, is asked this question in the upcoming film, Shut Up and Play the Hits. The film features LCD Soundsystem's farewell show that took place April 2, 2011 in Madison Square Garden, and follows James Murphy in the final moments of his band's existence. I'm beyond excited for the release of this film, mainly because like so many others, I didn't get the chance to see their farewell show. Judging from the trailer, it looks like the filmmakers did an amazing job capturing the band's epic farewell show:

Wish List: Black Poppy Neon Nail Strips
My nails are always painted-usually a different color every week. In an effort to shake things up a bit, I have been wanting to try nail strips, but I just haven't seen a design that has caught my eye. That may change now that PacSun's Black Poppy brand introduced these neon nail strips. Being a teenage-centric brand, there are lame designs (ahem, glittery hearts?!) and then there is THIS, a gorgeously-blinding neon yellow. You can read more about PacSun's Black Poppy Nail Polish here. It may be January, but summer, I've got my eye on you.

Lighten Up!
We all get the winter blues, especially my sunny-SoCal-beach-loving self. Tess Wilson, a San Francisco contributor for Apartment Therapy, paired a mirrored garland with white mini lights in an effort to beat SF's winter blues. Despite the 80-degree L.A. weather, my apartment doesn't get a lot of light and can seem really gloomy, so to cheer up the space I use a combination of multicolored lights and white paper lanterns. However, I love this lighted garland so much I may have to make one of my own! Lucky for me, Tess explains how to make one here.
