This Friday

I am loving my new J.Crew rhinestone necklace and would like to wear it with everything please and thank you; this Himalayan Trading Post 'Fleur de Lys' Candle - it smells magical and it's beautiful and you can get it in DC at GoodWood;  This gorgeous painting by  Lulie Wallace that wants to hang over my couch; and these Honeyed Sunreaders that are on super sale right now.  I also love strawberries and sleeping in.  I might just eat strawberries and read in bed all weekend.

Jewelles

 

Pink Ring, Purple Ring, Ruby Ring

 

  

I have no money and my job may or may not be super dead-end and I am exhausted due to a late night out with an undergrad friend and ready to climb under my desk to nap and why is my desk so messy anyway and wouldn't it be nice if offices had tea carts like British trains and brought round tea and Crunchie bars? I think it would be very nice indeed. Oh and here are some beautiful jewelles that I would like to wear on my fingers.   Thursday, let's power on through.

Hat, Sun

Remember my post yesterday about vintage hats?  Don't you think that this one is divine?  Perfect for all the sundresses and sandals and sloppy hair that I'm wearing to work this week and presumably will continue to rock all summer long. 

 

Hats

When the weather is this warm I want to be the sort of summery gorgeous girl who wears hats.

Anchor

I don't actually sail.  I so so so wish I did.  Would it be a bridge too far to wear one of these gorgeous anchor bracelets from Kiel James Patrick?  Probably.  But I do love.

Shut the Front Door

Guys,  Rifle Paper Co. is making iPhone covers.  And they are the bestest and most beautiful.  I am still rocking a super attractive pink rubber one I got at Five Below the day I got my phone and was feeling poor and wanted the cheapest cover ever.  But OH!  Pink flowers and pink ombre and gold stripes!

Goodbye Old Friend

1. The old standby in dots 2. Pink 3. Gold 4. Pink again! 5. Grey and Pink 

I've been saying this for years now.  It's time to get a new wallet. I've been rocking my J. Crew Magic Wallet with woven terriers since my sophomore year of college. That was a really long time ago.  It was gorgeous and wonderful and perfect for my metro card and since I am one of those people who never has cash ever (I was shocked when I saw the new ten dollar bill TWO YEARS after it came out) it’s been perfect.  Now it is falling apart.  Like REALLY falling apart.  

Since I’m no longer a student losing my id card (fifteen times in four years) I feel like it might be time for something a little more grown up.  Something for carrying cash (DC cabs don't take cards yet), something so that I don't have to rotate my cards through.  Yes please.  I'm sharing my shopping with you.  Right now I'm leaning toward 4 because pink and orange are lovely.

Farmers Markets, Bare Feet

Last night I sewed myself an enormous maxi skirt. For wearing to the farmers market and to my mother's birthday party. I am tired of shoes and tired of flatironed hair and tired of being in airconditioning. I think that maybe I need to go barefoot and wear my long long cream coloured maxi skirt and carry this bag around full of magazines and sunscreen and maybe a towel for lying on east campus getting some sun with the dog. Yes please.

Hint

Just in case anyone who's name is David would like to know about a nice present for me for Christmas which is my most favourite time of the year. I think this is real pretty. Just sayin.

Accessories, Follow-Up

Remember this? I know, YUM. It's on sale for half price. And I know I don't need a bag (I'm not going to carry it anywhere, and my dress has POCKETS, for eff's sake) but it's half price. And it's effing BEAUTIFUL.

Then there were these which I bought, and am going to try with the dress on Saturday when not one, not two but THREE of my sisters are coming with me to my dress fitting. Aren't I a lucky duck!

Pearly Things

Actually, remember this? I think I'd rather have these with no necklace. Yes please.

Would It Be Obscene...

For me to wear this

with this?
