They say that to figure out if something is "worth it", you should take the cost of the item, and divide it up by the number of times you'll use it. With this theory in mind, I was able to justify buying a beautiful heather grey, cashmere, fits-me-like-a sexy-glove, feels-like-buttah, tank top.

I visited what I hope is going to be my new office in the Flatiron District and was feeling optimistic when the alluringly monochromatic windows of Club Monaco beckoned me in.

So, fine. I don't have a car payment anymore since moving to NYC... for the cost of one, I now have a great tank top! I like this better than I ever liked my car.

Hrm, did this come in black..... ?

The vice president of my fan club bought me a thoughtful and gorgeous gift, which came today. It weighs about a hundred pounds, which I lurve tremendously. Double walled, stainless steel... the french press of my dreams. I will use it and love it everyday.

Digging these shirts. Via monstro.

I love this way of displaying vintage jewelry; it really harkens back to the glamour of the era.
