Back with another round up of iPhone snaps over the past few weeks! This was such a fun sewing project. I’ve had this tote for years. (I can’t find the exact style, but this is super close, just bigger.) I sewed a gingham liner for it and it feels like a whole new bag. I…

LITTLE BLACK DRESS FOR SUMMER
I completely forgot I had this dress until a couple of weeks ago. My closet is pretty small and my dresses are mostly hung in the deep section of it…. which can make it hard to see everything that I have. I think because this dress is black and sleeveless, it was extra invisible back there. I…

Vintage Plaid
I tend to be pretty boring when it comes to white jeans. Don’t get me wrong, white jeans are a staple in my closet, but I almost always wear them with blue and white tops. I picked up this vintage plaid top from J. Crew last week and knew it’d be a hit with blue and white denim. If you’re into the overall trend, the top would also work.
Five Things You Should Know How to Do in a Pinch
I have a very “mom” tendency. You know when you’re labeled the “mom” of the group? That’s me. Bandaids, stamps, sewing kit, lip balm, ponytail holders, spare Metrocards, mints, medicine… Pretty much everything I carry with me at all times. Mostly for myself and my sanity, but also to help save others! I’m the girl…
Bathing Suit of the Year

Reading Ruts and Getting Over Them (+ book recommendations)
There are times when I read a LOT, and there are times when I get a few pages in every day. And then there are times when books collect dust on my nightstand. It can be frustrating to fall into a reading rut, especially because it’s something I really enjoy. I also love discussing books…
A Little Bit of Culture… In the Middle of the Night
Graffiti is something that actually has a little bit overlap in my life. The word “graffiti” has such a bad connotation I think. It’s labeled as vandalism and punishable by law. (By this same logic, I still think we should ban chewing gum… sidewalks are so gross with old gum plastered everywhere!) Anyway… Graffiti is…

What I Read in October
So I wouldn’t say this was my best month of reading in terms of number of books, but I’m happy to report that I read what I believe will be my favorite book of the year (spoiler alert: Betty). I also went into a bookstore for the first time and, ugh, it made me so happy….
