It's quite sad that a good 80% of my appreciation for art, film, and culture in general always comes back to "Yeah, but what are they wearing?" Having said that, looking at the works of artists like Gainsborough and van Dyck makes me want to dress like a 17th century Lord Sir Duke Marquis de Kerfuffleplump. Gainsborough, van Dyck, van Dyck. The dudes in the last painting are wearing wedge-heeled boots
H&M blazer & jeans, Leigh & Luca scarf, vintage boots, bag, belt, and beret.I spent the weekend working, pretending to be a Parisian cowgirl, making individual barbecue chicken & mushroom pizzas, working, reading two very interesting yet very different books, feenin' for Easter candy (when can I get some Peeps, peeps?), and working. How was your weekend?

Even though red is officially my Second Favorite Color, I don't own much in the way of red clothing. Weird. So when Susi at the 4th Street Boutique (we're working on a special project I'll post about later!) pointed out this bright orangey-red skirt, I tried it on and immediately fell in love. It's long! It's made of cozy felted wool! It has pockets!*I don't really do all-out holiday theme

Donna Karan blazer, thrifted pants and oxford, DKNY shoesAfter finding this series of pictures, a bright pink blazer seemed like a fun counterpoint to army green boy's trousers. "Delectable Neon" images by Cobalt123

Vintage blouse, H&M top, BDG jeans, handcrafted clutch, Sigerson Morrison booties Returning from tropical paradise to gray skies and ice storms has me all discombobulated, and I'm feeling as gray as the stone cold skies. It's crazy how much the weather affects my mood--does that happen to anyone else?
