Iowa City - Spent the first of the week in Iowa City and man it exceeded all expectations - totally great little town, lots to do & see...if you're ever in the area go, go, go! I promise you will not be disappointed (plus they have some great vintage shops)
White Rabbit - Which brings me to White Rabbit, a vintage and DIY shop. LOADS of good stuff here, dresses galore, cute cat tee's, home decor, knits and handmade wearables. AND there's a coffee bar inside the shop!!! Coffee fix and vintage fix all in one go? Yeah, it seriously doesn't get much better than that!
Vita Coco - Have you tried vita coco coconut water yet? Holy moley it's delish and sooo super hydrating it's kind of an amazing thing. I can't stop drinking it!
Packing for Brooklyn - This has been at the forefront of everything i've done this week, even w/ the mini trip to Iowa, i still have to pack for a month in New York! Overwhelming doesn't even begin to describe! After work today i'm off to a hair appointment (gotta have good hair for bkl!) and then finishing packing 'til probably the wee hours of the night...*sigh*
Dum Dum Girls - Listening to the dum dum girls at the shop this week (a bunch) and I also got to catch their show here in town last weekend...They are so pretty (sounding) and otherwise too, makes me want to wear leather hot pants. haha!
Catbird Kitten Calendar - Since I'll be in Brooklyn this coming week I've got a list a mile long of places to see and shops to visit, Catbird is one of them, and I'm going to get me this Kitten Calendar if it's the last thing i do.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend! I'll be blogging from NYC when next you hear from me!
Until then,
Claire

Love that suitcases pic!!!
Dum Dum Girls?! They look amazing!I'm always the last to know about cool stuff!I'm gonna check them out!Thanks for that recommendation....and vita coco sounds delish, I assume it's not just straight coconut water?? Best thing about beach in Thailand is getting them straight from the tree and having them opened for you with a machete so you can sip the heavenly water!
SO excited for your trip to Brooklyn!
Love how you've set out this post and the kitten calendar is so cute! xx
