Top: Sicily | Shorts: Oasap | Wedges: Dolce Vita
After this two week hiatus, I've come to find that life is both sweet and sour-- following my philosophy that balance is healthy. It's a 1.5 week countdown to finals and graduation, and I am no doubt madly panicky. Reality is a b!tch, People. But thankfully one dotted with ecstacy-filled experiences. I'll be posting photos from the trips as soon as I compile all the good shots.
Meanwhile, here's a quick post on those free Dolce Vita Eileen wedges I nabbed a few weeks back. Everyone needs a pair of nude, thick-strapped sandals, perf for strolling with or without socks this spring/summer in comfort. I'll be running around in these bad girls, while finishing research reports, studying for exams, and fine tuning presentations. Wish me good things.
In packing for tomorrow, I ended up defining a couple of my vitals for much of the work week:
† Love these Calvin Klein thongs to death. Discomfort and pantylines are for noobs.
† Lace is a perfect midweek pickmeup, even if you are the only one who gets to see it.
† And (biased statement approaching) we almost always if not always.. pair lace with butter-soft leather.
† A sheer blouse for good measure.
Planning a recyclable wardrobe for the impromptu trip to NYC. So, naturally, I browsed a few of my favorite New Yorker lookbookers for some ensemble aid. Weather stats predict hot and humid, aka my flat iron is already ready for the trip.
Tailoring a uniform of black won't be much trouble for me. Always flat shoes for the unknown, and a pair of lifted sandals seem to be trending. Sleeved tops with skinny legs. Am I missing something?
As for places to pop into, I've had suggested the following:
FOOD: Big Nick's pizza in the Upper Westide | Cookies at Momofuku Milk Bar
BOUTIQUES: Shown to Scale boutique in Brooklyn
Granted, I won't know my mobility status until I get there. So traveling from place to place will be totally contingent upon the adventurousness of my friends. Still, keep the suggestions coming!

And I'm about to strike one. Shiitake mushrooms, it's Tuesday.
Um, so, I neglected to mention to you lot that I've a ticket to New York City in one week. I'm going slightly mental ... that level of excitement. It's a five day excavation, so my backpack will be light. Any suggestions on good pizza joints, boutiques, and what shoes to walk the streets with would be highly appreciated.
Today I tucked a silk-sheer buttondown into some cuffed shorts that were once upon a time full on jeans. Naked legs, cheap sunshades, a malleable blazer, and a totally random Seattle pic and we're good to go.

And a late Happy Cinco de Drinko. Erm, Mayo.
Hope the lot of you are nursing hangovers of the tequila sort.
Time to start up the week again.
