Linking up with Alyx. 1. Sometimes I will bookmark an item in a 'Shopping' folder in my bookmarks instead of pinning to Pinterest because I don't want anyone else to snatch it up before I can. 2. I'm really glad Elena got eliminated from Project Runway. She was...
Five Things Friday
1. La Fresh Eco Beauty Acetone-Free Nail Polish Remover. Yeah, quite a mouthful, huh? I got a sample of these in my latest Birchbox. The directions said simply "Gently press the pad into each nail, and watch your chipped polish dissolve". I was skeptical. The pad is...

More owls and long-sleeved items are up in the shop! A bunch more to come in the next week. I'm on a printing roll. ๐
What I Wore: Faux Fall
Just because it's still 85 degrees here during the day doesn't mean I can't sartorially pretend it's fall. Hence my sweater (though short-sleeved) and scarf (though non-warm-making). This is my first venture into fashion scarf wearing. Prior to this, the only...

Right Now…
Right now, I am... enjoying the two new music albums I got this week, the new Ben Folds Five and the new Mumford & Sons. It's rare that I buy new music, but both of these were worthy causes. waiting for the UPS truck to deliver the long-sleeved stock shirts I ordered...
What I Wore: Floral Rust
This week's closet challenge from Ma Nouvelle Mode was 'oversized shirt,' and I just so happened to have one that I'd been waiting to wear. I tried on about a dozen different belts before settling on this one. And... I dunno. This look turned out ok. I'm...
