I heart it

Have you gotten on We Heart It yet? I just found out about this site a few days ago (thanks to FerOHHHsh) and I’ve been completely addicted. It’s basically a visual reference of things that are supposed to represent your “heart” but there are infinite uses for it. It could be an easy way to visually bookmark images you see while perusing the interwebs because it links back to the original source. There is a tool that you can add to your bookmark bar to add pics as you browse the web, like Polyvore. (I can’t seem to get mine to work for some reason though.)

The main population on the site seems a bit young and there’s a no nude setting if you want to spare yourself the deluge of T&A all damn day (a lot slips through though… just a warning that it could be nsfw). I found it interesting how my “heart” has turned out. I made a point to stay away from decor and fashion… just to have a little special something for myself outside of this blog. It’s neat to see the things your eyes and mind gravitate towards when you’re just mindlessly clicking on things you like. The inside of my heart is pretty gentle, soft, fixated on the wonders of the natural world… and a little weird. What’s yours looking like? Follow me if you’re on there!

This is also a great way to get exposed to photography and art you may not have had a chance to see otherwise. I am transfixed by these polaroids by Anna Verlet posted on an impeccably curated art blog I had yet to hear about called but does it float. How magical!

Nice post. I wasn’t familiar with Anna Verlet’s work, so thanks for the introduction.

I love weheartit. I love it how I can find little things that are quirky, beautiful, inspiring and so lovely that capture the essence of life.
