Stop. Change!
Item: Coat Color/Fabric: Tan, suede Designer: ?? Where Purchased: A Thrift store, unknown Years Owned: At least 10 I feel like my brain has turned off. I’m not sure of the reason for this happenstance; perhaps I’ve scared it away. Or maybe it got sick of my whining about everything all the time. I just …
The Show Stealer.
Item: Coat Color/Fabric: Spring Green, cotton Designer: Express Years Owned: 6 Tonight I am contemplating something to remind me that, eventually, it will be spring. That no matter how much more horrible this winter can possibly get, it can’t last forever. That there is a light at the end of the snow and ice covered …
While You Debate Half-Empty Or Half-Full…
Item: Cropped Pea-Coat Color/Fabric: Plum, wool Designer: Bitten By Sarah Jessica Parker Where Purchased: Steve and Barry’s Years Owned: 2.5 Uuuugggghhhhhhh. I had to let that out. At this point saying that I am sick of snow is like saying that I enjoy breathing. We’re all in the same boat, so there’s really not a …
The Final Reckoning (For A bit, At Least)!
Ah. A crazy week! It’s been an emotional roller coaster. Many great things, many awful things. And I still feel a little nauseous. I hate that I was only able to write about three pieces this week. I really attempted to write every night, but many times I was just unable. The positive side is …
Win Some, Lose Some.
Item: Jacket Color/Fabric: White, wool Designer: Lux Where Purchased: Urban Outfitters Years Owned: Fourish Here is a little jacket that truly isn’t very practical. I suppose that it’s nice in the fall or spring, when it’s not too cold. It’s wool, so it is a little on the warm side. It’s just so darn itty …

Easy In? Whatever.
Item: Coat Color/Fabric: Moss, nylon/faux fur Designer: Spiewak Where Purchased: Urban Outfitters Years Owned: 7 I hate January. I ‘m willing to give February the benefit of the doubt, but so far, I am skeptical. Winter is just no friend of mine. And it’s been the worst week of the worst month. So I am …
January’s Penultimate Reckoning!
First of all, I want to thank you all for the wise words regarding my post yesterday and my book, Your support means a lot to me, truly. I’m not sure yet, exactly, what that support will means in terms of planning, and my courage, but I am certain that it means a lot. Now …
A Corner, Turned.
Item: Sweatshirt Color/Fabric: Raisin, polyester/rayon/spandex Designer: Mossimo Where Purchased: Target Years Owned: 4 What an eventful Saturday! There was a very fun rehearsal, some relaxing, more sugar than a hummingbird, one Christmas tree successfully dismantled, and Sex and the City. Plus, I nearly burned down the house with a careless microwave setting. No fire, thankfully, …
Little Devil On My Shoulder.
Item: Vest Color/Fabric: Black, cotton/lycra Designer: La Rok Where Purchased: Next Boutique Years Owned: 0.5 Tonight, something of a luxury. A vest. Vests are funny.
