I just love Anabela’s beautiful new collaborative shop, Summer Water! (Anabela and Caitlin, you two make the presttiest things!) It’s full of gentle photos and pretty totes. And each piece and photo seems perfect for this time of year when all the summer colors are a little bit paler, but the weather is still warm [...]
I’m not sure how many of you are following the World Cup but we’re pretty mad for it at my house! Since it’s being held in South Africa this time around, the time difference means we’re able to catch the first half of the first match over breakfast. At work I keep an eye on [...]
Four years of undergrad and an almost year long stint as a barista didn’t really leave me with a professional looking wardrobe, so I’ve been doing some shopping and outfit planning once I knew I would be starting a new job. I thought I’d share three of them with you! Kick any Monday blues with [...]
I haven’t ridden a bike in ages! And today I realized that I don’t even own a bike! (A few summers ago, my mom was cleaning out my parents’ garage and called to ask me if I’d mind if she gave my old one to a neighbor.) I might need to find a bike this [...]
I keep daydreaming about taking a summer road trip. When I think of those kinds of trips I think of the south west states like Arizona and New Mexico. Probably because Joel and I once drove from West Virginia to California in two days in a van with no air-conditioning. So for me road trips [...]
I saw these pretty tiffin boxes and cups on Poppytalk today. I think they are so perfect for packing a picnic for a trip to the park or beach. And I put together a pretty little picnic outfit, even though it’s still pretty chilly here! shirt by janey clothing, bangles by mystic fibers, necklace by corrie [...]
Thanks to Nylon’s twitter I found out that Burberry was streaming its Fall 2010 show yesterday. I sat by my computer in anticipation. I was so excited! I love Burberry for their British cool and the show did not disappoint! Beautiful coats and gorgeous colors! I couldn’t take my eyes off of one coat in [...]
I saw this pretty Down the Rabbit Hole watch and just had to build an outfit around it! I think soon we’ll be seeing lots of different takes on Alice in Wonderland. tweed dress by adhesif, watch by sadie olive, and necklace by fox and clover Tweed always seems a bit fall-ish to me, but it also [...]
Rainy October nights are so perfect for curling up with a favorite novel and a plate of cookies. I’ve been rereading Sense and Sensibility and I thought that would be a perfect theme for today’s outfit post! And so, here is what I think a modern Marianne Dashwood might wear: Gray Sparrow dress by Makool, a [...]
I adore Alison Kelly (of Project Runway fame) and I was so excited to learn she has an Etsy shop! I just had to build an outfit around this ever-so-beautiful top from her store: I would wear this with a pair of lovely skinny jeans in either slate gray or dark wash. How adorable are [...]
I write about things I like: knitting, fashion, books, and other cozy, lovely things. Thanks for visiting!
