…a few links for your weekend:

• This is a heavy one, but I think it’s important to pay attention. More than 100 children have died in Syrian and Russian attacks in eastern Aleppo in the last two weeks. History will judge the international community for their actions (or lack of action) over the coming months.
• VOTE! Voter registration ends on Tuesday, October 11 – sign up today!
• The gorgeous branding that Christine Wisnieski created for Molly Taylor Co.
• Also, I’m pretty sure my next business cards will need to involve holographic foil
• People now spend 50% of their time online in apps. Is this true for you?
• Oh, HELLO there, gorgeous chandelier.
• When designers move in, and how to style a reading nook.
• Wishing these iridescent high tops came in my size
• How cool are these marbled indigo pumpkins?
• I pretty much live in basic tee shirts – I love the pink dots on this one!
