New #Pinterest profile pages are up and at ‘em! Thoughts on the new layout - definitely makes activity easier to see on a profile level. However, my real question is how are the “Likes” showing up besides on posts that are already repinned? Where’s that functionality built in for seeing that next layer of engagement? Or is this a definitive choice so they don’t crowd a user’s stream like a retweet might?

In my exploration through Pinterest, I have discovered more and more blogs - mostly fashion and lifestyle. I’ve an obsession with gorgeous paper products, stripes, prints dashed here and there throughout a wardrobe, and blocky statement cuffs. I’ve had too much fun cruising through Saved by the Southern Belle and Reasons to Breathe. 

The most recent objects of my ardor outre moi? Rifle Paper Co. and faux Zebra hide beach towels, bien sur! All these lovely things are finding the happiest home and rubbing shoulders with one another in comfort of their own Pinterest boards. Trés fabu mes cheries!

Thank goodness my job involves heavy use of social media and content generation because it’s such a great excuse for me to try out every new platform. I may be slightly late to the party on this one but Pinterest you just GET me!

I love browsing sites and bookmarking things but once they’re marked in Chrome, I rarely look at them again. Along comes Pinterest to save the day. Now it’s crazy easy for me to see what my tastes look like across different categories and remember them!

My obsessions: architecture, home decor, design and recipes. Here’s a snap shot of my top picks.
