Black and Blue on 12th Ave

Cynthia Rowley dress | Stuart Weitzman Forsure pumps | vintage necklace | Ippolita earrings | photos: star-crossed smile


Yes, these were totally taken during fashion week. Just down the street from the amazing Birchbox Sample Stop, where I didn’t really take any photos because I was admiring the wall of beauty products. I’ve got some beauty reviews to write, but a clear favorite so far is the Beauty Blender, an amazing little hot pink makeup sponge.

And maple bacon chocolate is a lot better than I thought it would be.

New York Swap!

by


Dear Lydia,

Last Wednesday I attended an awesome swap event hosted by The Bloggers’ Collective. It was totally fate that I was clearing out my closet when I saw the post about it on I Have a Degree in This. I took fun things like my old Burberry sunglasses and DKNY scarf that have been on my swap page forever, as well as an American Apparel skirt that apparently was in high demand (sorry Nnenna, but you know I’ll just be giving things to you when there’s no swap to go to).


I got to connect with old friends (um, and by old I mean about six months?) and made new ones. …

On the Rocks in Brooklyn Bridge Park

by


Dear Lydia,

Oh look, I’m here again. I love this area. Forget Central Park. Although it’s very nice, Brooklyn Bridge Park wins every time. The water has the best view, but I like the park part past the bridge as well. I’ll have to venture there and show you one day. …

Stripes, Pink, and Black

by


Dear Nnenna,

There were a few very very nice days over the weekend. Nice enough for just my faux-shearling jacket and no wool coat. I didn’t even feel cool when I took it off, although I’m positive I frightened the neighbors off again. The children are never scared, though. They just stare at me puzzledly. …

Ann Taylor Asymmetrical Jacket

by


Dear Silvergirl,

It’s been so incredibly windy here. How about near you? I didn’t realize it at the time, but I have my eyes closed in every photo I took. I really need to see about getting some non-prescription glasses to keep things from getting in my eyes. If I don’t you’re going to think I’m asleep in every photo. …

Sometimes I Have Dinner Parties

by

January 9, 2012
Dear Lydia,

Well I suppose you remember these two? We got together for an impromptu gathering. 

I was actually going to serve tea, but I didn’t have anything for it except Tim Tams and some bland looking crackers. We went through the nearly empty pantry and I ended up making pasta with some sauce thrown together from tomato paste and a large can of whole tomatoes. I suspect canned tomatoes are actually vastly underrated.

I’m wearing my new tights! I saw them on Charming Pumpkin and immediately adored them– you know all about my issues with sheer tights, so I never wear Swiss dot. These appear to be holding up beautifully and are not choking me to death like my last pair of Merona tights.

I’m wearing my Anthropologie wrap (swapped with you!), Anthropologie skirt, Merona/Target tights, Stuart Weitzman pumps, vintage brooch, and ken + dana ring.

A Halfway Decent Twirl Photo for Once

by

January 6, 2012
Dear Silvergirl,

Have you worn your pink skirt yet? It twirls so well! However, the stripes of my shirt are definitely visible through it in some photos (eek!), so beware of patterns.

I caught the light at such a beautiful time. The sunsets have been really nice lately, so I’ve taken to walking around 5 or so most days. Well, at least as long as the weather permits.

I’m wearing my Ann Taylor shirt, Old Navy skirt, Forever 21 belt, Betsey Johnson tights, Stuart Weitzman Forsure pumps.
