my greed gets in the way of giving.
i think it's amazing how i manage to find only perfect things for myself when i'm supposed to be shopping for others.
i really am a considerate person. really. i'm just awful at exhibiting it.

channeling my inner samantha jones.
just when i decide my daily dose of daily candy is becoming too much to handle (as in a daily chore when mixed in with a thousand other daily reads), something like this comes along.
i appreciate any e-mail that comes chock-full of cheeky euphemisms like triangle's tresses, sensitive lady place and fuzzy éclair.
sensitive lady place... that's my favorite.
so for all you sensitive ladies out there, via today's candy, i bring you color for the hair down there.
sofa of my dreams.
i've been wanting to post this for a week.
i absolutely love it, and, if i had an extra 4k laying around, it would be mine.
print is marimekko.
perfection.

newsflash: it's fashion week in new york.
i cannot stop thinking about this dress. i can't figure out what it is about it... it just is.
[sorry about chiming in on fashion week so late in the game. i've been a bit out of it, i guess. i'll come up with some more thorough, late-breaking fashion commentary this weekend. you're welcome.]
from michael kors spring 2007 collection.
back. with more boots.
i know i've been THE worst blogger lately but please forgive me. i haven't given up on consumerism, i promise. i've just been... well, consumed.
i discovered these boots earlier in the week and have vowed to go back for them. a good fall boot, i think.

my sister shirt.
i don't do a lot of florals when it comes to tops (...or anything). but, come to think of it, i rock the solids way too often, so maybe i should branch out into pattern every now and then.
but really, i just wanted to share this shirt because it shares my name and nothing ever does.

no fortune in the cards.
i really don't get the concept of placecard holders. it's more like i just don't believe in them. but i do have a weird lobster placecard holder on my desk at work and it currently holds a bundle of fortunes. maybe these would be more appropriate fortune holders.
