Wednesday giveaway!

Yay! Today's giveaway is from 20x200, the incredible art shop that sells artist prints for $20 (and up). They're offering one lucky reader a $100 gift certificate to choose her favorite artwork. (My favorites might be the ideal bookshelves, this funny tortoise, Kite Hill and these baby animals.)

For a chance to win, visit 20x200 and leave a comment below with your favorite print. (Also, consider signing up for their newsletter to get a heads up on new prints, which often sell out quickly.) A winner will be chosen at random tomorrow. Good luck, my lovelies! xoxo

Update: Heather Mead Kim is our lucky winner. And a bonus for all readers: Get a $50 print for only $40! Enter code CUPOFJO at checkout and your $50 print will be $40. This offer ends Friday at midnight EDT.

What city or neighborhood would you get? xoxo

Home inspiration: Trapeze!

My friend Sophie (of the amazing children's brand Oeuf) has a wooden trapeze in her Brooklyn living room. She used to go to trapeze school in California, and now she has taught her kids a bunch of tricks. "They do knee hangs and swing quite high," she says. "They think I look like a big whale, but I do it to amuse them. We thought they'd use it for five minutes and never again, but it's completely part of their daily life. We call them monkeys."

Braided headband

I'm in such a shopping mood this fall! After nine months of wearing nothing but maternity T-shirts, I'm psyched to get some new fun pieces. This Anthropologie outfit is adorable, especially the braided headwrap, which feels very...(wait for it)...French.

Actually, I'm curious: Will you (or did you) take your husband's last name? I kept my name, and only a handful of my friends have changed theirs. What will you do? Do you like the sound of your name with his last name?
