Well hello there awkward pose! I totally envy those style bloggers who get 50 pictures of themselves on city streets, in golden fields of wheat, even in their living room. Oh to have that time! While this picture was being taken, there were two cats in my court fighting each other, Emerson was in the…
“Jewelry takes people’s minds off your wrinkles.” – Sonja Henie I don’t believe in holding onto clothing for sentimental reasons. Somehow that ratty sweatshirt from your college boyfriend, or that Jessica McClintock tea-length cotton frock end up sliding to the front of the closet and get worn.

New sweater! I got this from Ann Taylor – it’s black, a chunky weave with dolman sleeves – I always love funky sleeves like this. I think this sweater will look fab as the weather cools – imagine it with dark skinny jeans and boots, maybe even with a short skirt and opaque tights, even…
Sorry for being MIA, I had a mini-Staycation and tried to stay as much offline as possible. The Staycation (Friday through Tuesday) wasn’t super exciting, but it was just what the doctor ordered!
