Yesterday I somehow got locked out of the blog. Not quiiiite sure how that happened, but I did not appreciate it. To make me happy, I've come up with a few lovely things to share with you. I'm a big fan of "just because" gifts, and I think just about every one of these would be pretty great to give (or get!):
1. Clearly I love baking, and I think these heart measuring cups ($8) would make me love it even more. Not even intending the pun there, but hey...I'll take it when I can.
2. I don't care if summer is over, my love for nautical things is year round. These nautical coasters ($14) would be great on a table, or framed for a funky art piece!
3. This colorblock bag ($49) kind of rocks. It reminds me a little of the Celine bags out there...except it is a fraction of the price. Like a tiny, tiny fraction.
4. Ceramic. Owl. ($14) Come on, I don't need to go into much more details, do I?
5. How sweet is this Carpe Diem Journal ($14)? If all else fails, thoughtful books and journals are always a win.
6. I seriously need to get a little card holder like this neon woven one ($29). I only have a huge, grandma-like wallet that doesn't fit into any small purses/clutches, which only leads to loose cards and IDs. Fail.
7. The perfect amount of sparkle can be found in these sparkly ball earrings. A little disco-esque, no?
8. Maybe getting shoes for someone isn't always an easy thing to do, so heck, buy these teal tassel loafers ($32) for yourself, why don't you?
What's your go-to "just because" gift?
If you don't have one, go with one of these! If you feel like sending one of them to me, just let me know...

Those heart measuring cups look like something you would find in my favorite flea market vendor's lot! They are so playful!

I've been looking for a card holder–that neon version is so cute! "Just because" gifts are the best...mostly when you buy them for someone else, but pretty great when you buy them for yourself, too!
