I’ve posted before about one of the happiest places I know in all of the internet, Advanced Style, a style blog for the golden years. It’s going to be a film! If this trailer doesn’t melt your insides a little, well, you’re made of stone. :-)

Holy moly these photos are so much fun. By all-but-anonymous flickr user nmnmnm. Via Ghostly Ferns.

I found Vermont stationery studio, Scout’s Honor Co while poking around on Pinterest. Classic, enduring, and whimsical style. Also, their steamlined webshop/blog is run on tumblr for any of you small business out there, head’s up. I’m making a note to make use of tumblr for an e-commerce site too.

Also, I’m doing this photo challenge on Instagram! If you want to play along go here for more info. If you want to follow along, I’m @pitchdesign on Instagram and/or you can watch the (riveting!!!!) action unfold on my tumblr, Pitchstagrams. Chad’s also doing it, @chadkouri / tumblr too.

Who else’s in?

I haven’t checked out old fave Tauba Auerbauch in a while, but in the interim she’s cranked out an entirely new style of work and it is bee-yoo-tiful. These are – wait for it – paintings. Egads, so awesome. Thanks to Jessica Comingore for reminding me of this inspiring lady’s work.

Guess what, guess what?! I’m writing a biweekly column for Studio Sweet Studio and it’s launched TODAY! Margot’s Design Dispatch is a digest of all things (you guessed it) design-related. It takes a similar format as my Friday Links posts, but with a little extra snazz (that’s the, uh, highly technical term) for even more fun times. Meg & Tuesday have put a lot of thought into growing their content by putting together an excellent batch of contributors, each with our own specific topic area. Breanna of Moxee writes about self-employment with Be Free, Lance, Elana Schlenker covers all manner of print and publication issues with Pressing Matters, and Mike Smith spotlights bright young talent in the industry with Honor Roll.

You’re just going to have to go, go, go to there!
