K.O.

there must be some link between my affinity for graphic tees and my unyielding love for charm necklaces. maybe it's something about my desire to convey a message? in any case, my latest jewelry indulgence to celebrate the end of April (woof. it was a rough one). packs a one-two punch. so i guess what i'm trying to say is, bring it on, May :-)

Monserat De Lucca Boxing Gloves Necklace

you are a genius, b.j. novak

seriously, go out and buy One More Thing: Stories and Other Stories right now. or, ten minutes ago. it's brilliant. 

it's april and still freezing

i've run out of creative energy when it comes to layering. so i usually end up woefully under-dressed, in protest of the woefully low temperatures the East Coast is still experiencing. it's been a confusing "spring" for sure, hence my confusion regarding my outfit choice for the night. 

for example, is it really ever acceptable - no matter how unseasonably chilly it is outside - to whip out the houndstooth hat i purchased from bebe when i worked there during college (ps - that's a fun fact to throw out to my friends who think they know me through and through. that's right, i was a sales associate at bebe. i was the answer to the statement: one of these things is not like the other. but i had a great time. and i bought an unacceptable amount of tube tops.)

anyways! unsure on the outfit, but absolutely confident in my choice of lipstick: By Terry in "Be Red" the perfect vampy reddish plum shade to suit this up-and-down season.
