We've established that I can be a weird little hoarder of awesome - squirreling all sorts of cool, interesting things away in my nest, too greedy to share them with anyone. That's how I feel about Checks and Spots. But I like you so much, I decided to share. Just this once.
I read a gajillion blogs. Lots of niche blogs - only design, only fashion, only cultural commentary. But what I really, really love (and what I'd honestly like to see more of) are blogs that cover lots of different topics and then - stop the presses! - actually write a bit about said topics. Not those blogs that just repost photos they found on Martha Stewart's website or the great photo shoot for ban.do headpieces (though I like those blogs, too). I like a blog that features a little bit of everything, plus a sprinkling of witty copy thrown in.
Checks and Spots is one of those blogs, you guys. Really interesting fashion spreads you haven't already seen all over the internet! Cool, interactive art projects! Interviews with artists! Collections of links to other great stuff!
I love it. It's smart, pretty, interesting and a little bit different. Umm, just like us, right?

How cool! Thanks for sharing.
Also wanted to say thanks for your awesome '31 Things' post. Really inspiring! :)
Way cool. Thanks so much for sharing this. and I agree-- I would like to see more "well rounded blogs" By the way, I LOVE YOUR blog!
I dig it! Thanks for sharing! I'm totally with you, I like to get a good laugh or learn something new when reading a blog.
You should maybe read my blog, because my sister says I need a theme, but I'm not sure I agree. It's called the hooligan's mother. Theoretically, it's about my sons' hijincks, but really it's a platform from which I make fun of my husband (he says). Also I try to send up my soccermom existence as much as possible. When I can't think of anything to post, I put up a recipe, because I'm a hella good cook. I like winona's blog too. I turned my waxologist on to don't sho-cha yo cho-cha.
