Monthly archive July, 2009
Gearing up for a crazy August….the next few weekends have me going everywhere from NYC to the CT shore and beyond. I have a favorite journal that I have been neglecting all summer . . . I really should be writing some of this stuff down . . . Anyway, speaking of journals, it was...
What’s up… and where did this month go? I almost had a heart attack when I realized it’s July 29th!! I mean… seriously, where did the summer go!? I am especially sad to see July go… I kind of fell in love with 7/09 for several reasons… but 8/09 is brimming with possibilities, so...
Good morning and thanks for all the emails! Today’s designer is super-stylish and ec0-friendly… so she’s a lady after my own heart! More about the brand from the site: The Allison Parris collection was founded by designer Allison Parris and lawyer/entrepreneur Marissa Kim in the Fall of 2008. The Allison Parris collection is a feminine...
It’s funny . . . I woke up with Philly on my mind and today’s designer just so happens to reside in the City of Brotherly Love. Completely inadvertent, but these days I’m starting to realize that fate has a funny way of undermining deliberate actions . . . it’s just easier go with...
I just came back from another introspective/ coincidence filled weekend. 3 down, 6 more to go before things start to settle down. I had planned on devoting this summer to writing . . . but it seems like now it’s devoted to experience. I will save the writing for the cold Boston winter that awaits....
Hola! It’s been a while, I know. I had to kind of disappear into work for a bit, but it was well worth the effort and I’m back! Today’s designer is the absolutely wonderful Camilla Skovgaard. I am obsessed with her shoes! About CS: Camilla Skovgaard was born in Denmark, north of Copenhagen, as the...
As a writer, it’s never a good thing to be left speechless… especially for this long. But when words are wrapped up in accents and thoughts are accented by words… there is nothing left to do but sit back and embrace the experience. I am sitting here drinking San Pellegrino, listening to the Shins,...
Another fabulous designer because I know I won’t be able to write tomorrow morning: Tina Antilla, a great Finnish designer (whose motto is, “life is a nut and nuts- you just have to crack it!”), is super creative and brimming with talent. I love her designs and her presentation! Check out her personal site...
Isn’t there a Dave Matthews Band song called “So Much to Say?” I seem to recall it from back in the day. That’s theme of this post, but alas, as always I am running late. . . I really need a personal assistant… and a house keeper…. and a driver would be nice too. I’ll...
I am still processing yesterday… which is a good thing. I tend to process things rather quickly and move on… so anytime a conversation or interaction has me thinking into the next day is a very very good thing. Anyway, because I am still processing, I won’t expound… I will however leave you with some...
Ok… deep breath…. it’s Friday!! Once thing this past weekend taught me, is a change in scenery can wonders for perspective. I mean… you have no idea. Anyway, I am a huge rush this morning but wanted to leave you with something interesting to ponder, so instead of featuring a designer, I thought I’d help...
I was reading James Wood’s review of “Censoring an Iranian Love Story” in the New Yorker yesterday and the whole topic resonated with me. The premise of the review, and of the book in part, reminded me of when I used to be a good writer. I mean, there was a time I could...
