Blogs to read: the best of the rest

There are a bunch of blogs I read that don't really fit into any of my other categories ... a little of this, a little of that, a lot of fabulousness ... However you want to define them, these are really some of my all-time favorites and I couldn't let the opportunity go by without mentioning them. Consider these must-read.

DesignLoveFest. I mean, obviously, right? Bri is awesome. Her blog is awesome. Everything she does is awesome. Plus, she's super nice. So just read it ok? {photo}

Cup of Jo. I don't think a week goes by that I don't send my husband something that I saw on this blog, like, "ohmygod you have to see this amazing/funny/interesting thing..." There's a little bit of everything here, and Joanna isn't afraid to talk about the things that most of us are pretty afraid to talk about. And that is so refreshing. {photo}

Oh Joy. Well for one Joy is just adorable and she has the cutest little baby girl who sometimes makes an appearance. Her blog is about life and pretty things and being happy, and what more can you ask for? Watch this video she made, Make Someone Happy, and just try not to smile. I dare you. {photo}
