a basket of shoes




i wanted to do a post to bring this blog back to its roots. which of course means self portraits of me in my bedroom accompanied by anecdotes about how weird i am!  so i have this giant basket that's filled with my shoes.  i mostly don't wear them because, by and large, they're all broken or breaking.  i have never in my life gone to a cobbler but i'm still convinced that ONE DAY i will get them all fixed.  also i wanted to show you a picture of  my most prized possession.  the gold lettering on the insides is all but disappeared from a previous owner's wear but they are still Chanel.  sadly they fall into the "never been worn" category because i'm terrified of breaking them.  i don't even consider myself to be a shoe gal but i'm always wishing i had more and i'm always buying new ones.  what is it with girls and their shoes?

today feels more like indian summer but it's only a matter of time before i'm wearing 100 layers of sweaters and long johns.  the good news is that i've been collecting thrift store sweaters and jackets all summer long and i'm anxious to start listing them in the shop.  

so in an effort to clear out the summer stock, i'm having an autumn sale! til the end of this week take 10% off any order with the coupon code: HARVEST

win a navajo backpack from a fine day for sailing! (closed)





in the spirit of all things back to school, i'm very excited to host a giveaway for the killer navajo backpack pictured above!  islabell is the mega babe behind the blog and etsy shop known as A Fine Day for Sailing.  i have to admit that i was more than a little excited when she contacted me about partnering up because ever since i first came across her blog i thought of her as a kindred spirit. we must have a similar aesthetic because i'm amazed at every outfit she puts together and every piece she lists in her shop!  she's really so classically beautiful and genuine and talented that i'm sure you'll fall right in love with her too.

congrats to taylor/the little deer!

i was so excited when i convinced anna li to skip out on the big apple and join me in the country for a few days.  the highlights included beaches, forests, fried clams, thrifting, a steak dinner, and massive girltalk!  on top of being an all around sweetie-pie she's also enormously talented at everything she does.  it was so easy and fun taking these photos with her and i'm blown away by how they came out.  i can't wait to share the rest soon!
