intermission

ok, i have to take a "time-out" from fashion week for just a moment here because THIS titanium quartz ring is insane and amazing and i love it. i'm not even sure i should be telling you about it because it's one of a kind and i want it, but here i am anyway. 

"titanium quartz is famous for giving increased life energy, humor, relaxation, and enjoyment of life"

 i think i could use just about all of that. perfect.

sale stuff

  I'm beginning to think that warm weather might actually be here to stay. Both yesterday and today I have been wearing shorts and tank tops. Yesterday it was "Faraway Places" and today it's "A Charming Girl", which I still wear and love despite being happily married! 

So to celebrate warm weather, I've added a few new things to our sale section in the Etsy shop, including some of my favorite styles from last year's summer collection like "La La Land," featured above. Check it out here.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend. I got to see my two adorable nephews in Massachusetts, hang out with family, eat birthday cake, had a studio appointment with the lovely Jess from Toronto, and spent Easter exploring Astoria with one of my oldest friends- lounging around at the park and drinking beer at a Czech beer garden. I don't normally drink beer, but it was a beer garden afterall, and I got to drink out of a stein. It was perfect.

alexandra grecco

 

 

 i am in love with every single thing by brooklyn-based alexandra grecco. i am especially swooning over the razzle dazzle tap shorts- perfectly scandalous for a holiday party or even just dancing around the house singing show tunes.  another favorite is the irma vep wrap dress- so soft & romantic, but also sexy- in an emmanuelle sort of way.
