Photos and thoughts on fashion, beauty, tech + city living.
What a serious heatwave we’ve been having lately… I hope you’ve been staying cool, hydrated, and safe from heatstroke. Lately I’ve been drinking an extra glass of water every day. I cut back on coffee, too, but there’s only so much you can do before a portable fan and bulk supply of mini Evian spray bottles start sounding like good idea.

I got this funny faux-fur charm as a Christmas gift and it’s been coming with me everywhere. It also made me remember how much I like tying square scarves onto my bags, so I brought a few of them out of storage.
The weather’s been so warm lately that I’ve decided to stop purchasing winter clothing for the rest of the season. I’m trying to be more mindful about the purchases I make this year, so I started a list of what I’m looking for.

My name is Alex and I have been blogging in some form or another since 1998. I’m a former Manhattanite now living the quieter life in Brooklyn. I like outerwear and red lipstick.
When I was younger, I was let loose in a GAP Kids one too many times, resulting in many of the fashion choices you see here in my photos. I also read, traveled, and took cooking and art classes. Art eventually led me around to photography, and to this day I do enjoy a good brunch.
