*gah: melanie acevedo.
The woman above could be going to a late Saturday/early Sunday brunch, a book reading, or headed toward a lunch date with a prospect she found on Match Dot Com. No “dog and pony show” here. Just lifestyle images that make you feel all wa...
outside the cubicle.
GT knows a “do what you love” grustle when I see one. And for me there’s nothing more inspiring than seeing a woman take risks, and watching her passion unfold before her very eyes. Meet Elizabeth Lewis…38…and a perso...
11 things: andrea pippins.
Isn’t she just as cute as a button? And that hair…I remember way back in the day when GT was just a blog reader with a dream and how bad I wanted to be featured as a fly girl over at Andrea’s online home Fly Girls. Dreams do come t...
cinema style: eve’s bayou.
Eve’s Bayou is a deceptively complex story of family bonds, culture, folklore, womanhood, relationships, mysticism, and a microcosm of how black life is weaved into the American narrative. The film directed by Kasi Lemmons is a directorial mas...
insider look: designer nilea alexander.
All kinds of yowsa and wow. Brooklyn based Fashion Designer Nilea Alexander’s Pad space was featured in the August issue of Ready Made Mag and boy oh boy where do I begin to describe my head over heals splendor? The wall paper, the vintage-y f...
cinema style: mo better blues.
Ever since Design Sponge ever so brilliantly created a series aptly titled Living In, I thought it would be fitting of Get Togetha to create something based on one of my most favorite iconic films ever “Mo Better Blues.” Without giving a...
vintage wares: high street market.
Get Togetha recommends that you keep High Street Market on your Etsy favorites because this shop knows what the customer wants. Unique/Affordable (Not Cheap…BTW…I hate that word) Vintage wares for the home that are high on individual sty...
11 things: the style child.
And Happy Monday to you. Just wanted to share another installment of 11things that make a fellow fashion blogger happy. Her name is A.N Browne and she runs the fashion blog Stylin & Profilin. I’ve lurked over at her site a couple of time...
blog love: wide open spaces.
Any opportunity to show my fun side and I’m down. My “friend in my head” Emily over at Wide Open Spaces started a wonderful series a while back called “10 things” inspired by the late great Domino Mag and I’m so p...
*new feature: 11 things.
My blog sister Emily over at Wide Open Spaces has been doing a 10 things ode to Domino Mag for some time by featuring lovely women and the things that they love and such so here’s Get Togetha’s spin. I love my taste but curiosity into th...
*print news: dwell diy.
Because the Internet could never replace the tactile experience of smooth pages between your thumb and your index finger Dwell magazine has decided to launch a DIY decor magazine for that gaping void of affordable home cool. It promises *crosses fing...
small spaces: relocating
Who doesn’t love reading a good “take a risk” story complete with a happily ever after “in progress” ending? Head on over to the NY times Home & Garden section to read about a then 36 year old woman (Mary) who took a...
in gt’s library.
Us design and decor bloggers have the tendency to “ack” like the end of Domino was the crumbling of the highest mountain top but there are other design books in GT’s library stash. I highly recommend all four and trust that I’...
pad living: india arie
Without naming any names there’s a dime a dozen of ”dumb fun” music out here, (and trust. GT likes her dumb fun) but when I want to heal I listen to India Arie’s Voyage to India. India Arie is the type of musician that stays...
conversations: on self.
Gt’s short quick and painless answer would be cute and I’ll leave it at that. But since we seem to share our thoughts about life and living so well I thought it would be cool to stir the pot and get you to talking about your immediate rea...
new feature: wurq!
GT doesn’t do the fashion game cause there’s tons of bloggettes and blogdudes that get the job done in a most proper way…but I’m always coming across a model or a runway shot that would pair well with an interior quite sublim...
alternative chic: janelle monae
Janelle Monae is a rock out futuristic kinda gal and I love her signature flip hair do. She has the sweetest of faces and the most mesmerizing eyes; but she also looks like she has a rattlesnake in her front pocket. Ms. Monae the songstress cann...
