Happy Belated Valentine's Day! My boyfriend and I tend to stretch the holiday, however faux-holiday it might be, over the weekend (mostly because we can't deal with the crowds at restaurants and things, trying to get reservations and all that mess!) so we're going out for dinner tonight instead of yesterday! I am excited because it means the heart-shaped cupcake tins at Target might be on sale.
The more important reason for this post though, is this girl:


who was pictured on The Sartorialist this morning. I love it. Love it, love it, love it to bits and bits. It makes me simultaneously thrilled and breathless and deeply envious and greeeeen! It's so lovely, because the weather is just dreadful lately--we had a few teasing days of springy tempratures, and now it's back to cold--but she's found such a great way of layering and being cute. I think my favorite thing is the little bit of shape and volume in the skirt. Plus, it's tweed. I love tweed; I might be having a secret love affair with it.
"But why was the world ever created?" asked Candide.
"To drive us mad," was the reply.
(Also, my pictures are back! I believe I've fixed the issue, fingers and toes crossed it stays that way!)

ReplyDeleteLovely quote. I'm giving you an award on my blog for your fabulous style! ^^ xx
ReplyDeleteI posted this girl on my blog a couple weeks ago (then my posts were lost and I'm not sure if I restored it or not). The mixing of herringbone with dots is so fantastic. Did you see her again on the Sartorialist last week? Another killer outfit.
ReplyDeleteNice blog you have here!
