It is not light that we need, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake. Frederick Douglass

Get Cozy with Rosetung

I’m starting to think it will never stop snowing. It’s out of control. Just the other day, I found myself wandering around my street repeatedly pressing my car alarm button in the hopes I’d hear a muffled “beep beep” from beneath one of the many mounds of snow containing a car. Anyway, instead of constantly...

  I starting the week off with Cyndi Lauper… yeah. It’s like that. I’ve been on this strange modern day hip-hop/cheesey 1980s kick lately. I’m always nervous the person sitting next to me on the T is going to get one listen to my iPod mix and think I’m a total nut (which actually wouldn’t...

Sorry for the Dem Franchize Boyz reference… it was just so fitting! Before I get to today’s designer I have to say that yesterday was one of those days that’s going to take a long time to digest. I am sitting in my office (on my week off, of course, see how dedicated I am?)...

  Embattled by an onslaught of introspection, holiday obligations, and technical difficulties, I have been bad about writing… really bad… That being said, my introspection continues… the holidays parties continue to flow from one to the next to the next… and my internet should be all set by this weekend, so I guess that’s  progress....

Shop till you drop: ModCloth

I’ll make this short because I have some drama I need to attend to this a.m. If you know anything about me, I’m NOT a fan of drama. I am however a fan of ModCloth! Featuring some of our favorite indie brands like Soundgirl Clothing, Jeffrey Campbell Shoes, Tulle,  Stop Staring,  Poketo and Nick &...

  For whatever reason I could NOT sleep last night… I always get a little cabid-feversih this time of year…. Hence the 2am phone conversations/ emails about capitalism, physics and the American Dream… Anyway,  I’m ready to pack my pink and green suitcase and jet off somewhere without explanation. One place that’s always fun to...

Finally! The weekend! I still have very mixed feelings about Urban Outfitters, so I was reluctant to write about these earphones (U.O. was the only place I could find them!)– but they’re just so hot! These rich, decadent oversized DJ headphones are designed by Boosted and are the ultimate upgrade for your personal sound system....

Good in Bed/ Waffo maniac

  Yesterday was one of those days where I literally couldn’t do or say anything right. The worst part was, as I knew I was messing up as I was doing it, but I still couldn’t help myself. It was like “word vomit” from the movie Mean Girls. The day dragged and dragged and by...

  I was definitely right about this week… its been crazy. Its only Wednesday and I already have dreams of throwing on one of my favorite t-shirts, a pair of sweats and relaxing all weekend (for the first time in a long time I only have one event planned!!). If you’re lacking the “favorite t-shirt”...

I’m not much of a shoe person… but I almost fell out of my chair when I saw these adorable heels from Naugthy Monkey. The best part? They’re under $100! The floral tunic? Under $40! Both items are from the same place and, I’m not gonna lie, part of me wants to keep this on-line...
