HAUS comes to Brooklyn!

This past weekend was one of those magical weekends that seemed to linger on and on in the most perfect way.
One of the highlights of the weekend was the arrival of the HAUS gang in Brooklyn. I don't know if you remember me talking about Haus, but they are a new shop in Toronto that just so happens to carry Every Little Counts. Adam and I met up with William, Rachel, and Maurizio at the Roebling Tea Room in Williamsburg. We've been speaking so much online and over the phone that it was so nice to actually meet in person. I love them all beyond words. We spent the afternoon talking, drinking, thrifting, and ended with a tour of our studio in Bushwick. I think they definitely need to open up here in Brooklyn because I miss them already.

The very lovely Rachel.
 
 Maurizio wrapped up in Rachel's scarf. He has the cutest smile and drinks vodka martinis- a man after my own heart.

Everyone scored something at my secret thrift store.... I will not reveal the name or location. Never!

weekend

so i ultimately did not end up seeing "the exploding girl" this weekend. instead, i was busy with all sorts of other stuff- meeting up with my friend lindsay for happy hour (i should be the authority on happy hours in nyc by the end of the summer), driving around manhattan on a saturday (eek!) to recycle a broken tv, hanging out at my favorite french restaurant (bar tabac), wandering through ikea looking for lighting fixtures,  and meeting up with a friend i hadn't seen in awhile to do lots of talking and eating (chocolate chip strawberry walnut pancakes & a healthy banana shake- it was like heaven). 

but somehow in the midst of all of that, i watched three movies...
 a small painfully realistic film about a couple navigating their way through a long distance relationship, starring greta gerwig, the girl we all fell in love with in "greenberg"
ah, i miss the 90's... the 90's were all about eric stoltz & mary louise parker.
watching this has got me dreaming of an early 90's eric stolz indie movie marathon: sleep with me, kicking & screaming, killing zoe, bodies rest & motion- i haven't seen all of these in forever.
i forgot i had already seen it, but it was a sweet little movie to watch again. it didn't hurt that i have a small crush on brian f. o'byrne... he's irish and i like that.
it also stars marguerite moreau (shown above- so pretty!), naveen andrews (who i recognized from law & order, but i guess he's also on "lost"), and the sister of everyone's favorite girl crush, emily deschanel.
