pretty things:

• Rebecca Thuss's illustration portfolio – I love the elegant, clean design of this site! It has just enough character to make it unique, but it isn’t overwhelming.
• Decor8’s mugs and books photo post. Gorgeous. Makes me feel all cozy and wintry.
• Daytum. Cute personal graphing site, love the infographics.

Have a lovely day!! Views brought to you courtesy of Portugal…can’t believe it’s already been so long since studying abroad!
