Woot!! Welcome to my brand-new website!! She’s small and simple, but that’s exactly why she suits me perfectly.:) Got a brand-new blazer, in a brand-new blue hue, to celebrate. Good ol’ J.Crew just does a casual-cool blazer that not many others can. So, I shopped some of my JC faves, just for you. Tee: J.Crew | Blazer:
Navigation in this city can be tricky. Do you know that I’ve actually used my compass app on my phone to get around? MY COMPASS. I have pulled a freaking Lewis and Clark and navigated myself using the moon’s gravitational pull. So many times I’ve thought I was headed South when I was actually headed North,

It’s the coziest color, by far – none ever wants to snuggle up in an olive green afghan or feels quietly pulled together in a plum and polka dot slouchy cardigan!

The following pictures are exactly why I stand firm on the fact that summer isn’t really over until October.
