If you run quick to Anthropologie you will probably still be able to snag this fabulous summer dress. On SALE too. I was meant to buy this dress. It was fate how I found it. Everyday for the past week I’ve been walking by the windows of Anthro admiring not this dress, but a different one. The original dress I thought I was meant to own was hot pink with an amazingly fun ribbon around the waist. I thought I was in love. I even dreamed about how I would wear it to reunion weekend, or a wedding this summer. But as soon as I saw the dress in person I knew I had been fooled. It was cheap looking. And their was NO ribbon (it was an added accessory, a belt turned backwards). AND it cost $98. Puh-lease. I was a little ticked off about the misrepresentation between the window display and the real thing that I did a quick 180 to walk out of the store. That’s when I saw the rack. The rack filled with these funky-cute summery dresses. Orangey and pink and navy blue. They were calling my name. And so, I listened and tried one on. And it was so perfectly adorable I decided then and there that this would be my new dress. My new summer dress. I love summer and I love dresses. And I love love love this $48.00 colorful, pretty, flowery, fantastic dress. Yes, yes, YES.
The summer dress.

Steve Madden was handing out these scratch off coupons last weekend. The discounts ranged from 10%-50% off. I happily took a coupon and quickly got out my wallet for a coin. A sale? On shoes? OK! Scratch, scratch, scratch… I got 40%! For the first time in my whole life I won something!!! Obviously I had to claim my prize. I could not simply walk out of the store and DITCH my 40% ticket. I mean would you trash your winning lottery ticket? Of course not. That would just be ridiculous.
Do you like my new shoes?

I’m obsessed.
OAK: Handmade Clothing & Gifts
April 15, 2010
I stumbled upon a really adorable store today on Newbury Street– Oak: Handmade Clothing and Gifts. It’s located between Fairfield and Gloucester Streets and has really fun Etsy-like stuff. Totally great for gift giving. Or self giving. I was in love the second I walked in. If I owned a store, I would want it to be like this one.
SO fun.


It’s busy, but in a good way. Like a “everything is so precious I wish I had more money” kind of way. Handmade gifts by REAL people like you and me. Except I can’t make this kind of stuff. I only wish I could.

Don’t you just love these little sock monkeys? I do.
Stop on by sometime:

This rain needs to stop.
And winter needs to go away.
Because I want to wear pretty ballet flats.
Like these…





They’re all so wonderful. And pretty. And SO NOT waterproof.
But wait!!
Look what I found:
Rainy day ballet flats?! GENIUS!!
