The Shop Manifesto

I am loving West African indigo scarves. Unfortunately, whenever I find one that I like they are exorbitantly priced. After searching the web for indigo scarves I came across The Shop Manifesto. The shop has a great selection of indigo scarves at reasonable prices. There is one caveat to this awesome discovery- I can’t complete my purchase. Whenever […]

Dominion

I read the book Dominion, which sounds like a Shades of Grey type of novel, but was instead a book about a fictional alternative outcome to World War 2. The novel centers around a British spy and how he, and others, kept sensitive information out of German hands.  I enjoyed reading Dominion, although at times I […]

Studded for Winter

Pants: J. Crew (similar style here) The BF and I have become Hampton Jitney pros. Although the buses are different (as are the drivers) one thing remains the same… it’s freezing. You go on that bus and you’re in the dead of winter. I made the mistake, the first time we took it, of wearing […]

Mesh

Skirt: Vintage Bag: Balenciaga (similar style here) Belt: J. Crew I’m currently watching a Harry Potter marathon on ABC family. To some, this is a lame way to spend a Friday night, to me, it’s perfection. I’m remotely obsessed with this skirt. The color is so vibrant and I love the print. I bought it […]

Books to Read

I just finished reading my latest book, The Goldfinch, and the next logical step is to decide what I’m going to read next. I created a list of books I’m interested in and I’m going to start reading the first and make my way through all five.  I’ve already begun The God of Small Things and I’m […]
