This morning I set the alarm for 6am, but somehow it was turned off. My body usually wakes me at that time anyway, but I guess due to the time change, I didn’t wake until 7:30, leaving me very little time to get ready. I had showered the day prior, let my hair air-dry with…
Okay, I am not longtime fans of either group. A friend of a friend introduced me to Gomez and I have loved them since. Love the sound, love the feeling, love the band. They were playing at Sonar so I bought tickets on a whim. Ben Kweller was opening and thanks to the beauty of…
Busy Saturday. My dad starts with a yoga class that my husband teaches at the local studio, then I had to get to a baby shower early to help the hostess set up, then had to leave the shower early to have dinner with dear old family friends who were in town, then had a…
Today I am going to a hockey game in the city after work, so wanted to look appropriate for both events. Black and gray fuzzy stretchy v-neck sweater tunic from Banana Republic, gray ribbed tank from Old Navy underneath, denim trousers from Gap, black city boots from Impo, silver cuff bracelet.

Though it may be snowing outside in the Nation’s Capital, I know it will be toasty warm in my office. I never understand why bad weather forces women to look like shlumps. The majority of people going to work in this country walk less than a block from their cars through freshly plowed and salted…
Brown merino bracelet sleeve v-neck from Gap, coral and brown and ivory tweed trousers from Ann Taylor, brown peep toe pumps with wood heels from Maripe, thin gold hoops from Diva. These are my last 14 pants, and I realize that when I bend over or squat I look as though I am wearing a…
Gosh it feels good to have a haircut! Keep in mind I couldn’t wash it today so I am working with the style that I received yesterday after a night of tossing and turning. All I did was use a round brush and dryer to smooth out the bangs and a bit of Jonathan Dirt…
