Along with perusing Rachel Levit’s Botany illustrations, remembering our first crushes with Julia Pott and swooning over Colenimo’s Paper Moon fashion line, this week, we wanted to paint our bodies in retro camera tattoos, discovered ombré paper garlands, learned how to make flower lights out of cupcake liners, wished that Neil Gaiman spoke at our college graduation, and checked out SoKo’s latest music video.  Peek inside the rest of our little diary after the jump, and have an amazing Memorial Day weekend! xo.

P.S. Don’t forget to enter our Triko giveaway before Monday!

How amazing are Griottes’ completely adorable food and party photographs?
