In A Valentine's Mood

Blame it on Amelia Bedelia and her Valentine's book I've been reading to Lilly, but I have Valentine's Day on the brain. I wouldn't say I'm a total heart day junkie, but I do love a holiday that celebrates love and all things pink! Maybe you do too...

Pink Extensions * Dinah Painting * One Night Stands Journal (ha!) * Sugar Cookies

New Kicks

It's been a long week over here taking care of my sick children. We've been strolling a lot to get some fresh air and I've also made a few breaks for it thanks to some good sitters :) And I've been practically living in my new Ash wedge sneakers.

I had been contemplating them for a few months now, but finally bit the bullet about 2 weeks ago and got a pair. I LOVE them. I'm a shorty so I love to add some height. They're great for chasing kids, strolling down King Street, and can also totally be dressed up which is a fun. I got them in black but am now completely convinced I need them in a rainbow of colors.

I'm particularly drawn to the creamy white pair and that pastel pair. And if I didn't already have my black pair I'd be all over the snakeskin ones. So many fun ways to dress them.

And I think I might like her outfit the best...

Manifesto's Launch: Evolve

My friend Meg Biram just launched her comfy tee with a meaning line, Manifesto. Each month a different declaration of intention, motive, or view will be chosen. 12 different tops a year. All limited edition.

For Manifesto's launch Meg invited 9 blogger friends to be a part of the lookbook. I'm so honored to be a part of it wearing January's tee, evolve.

I chose to pair it with an oldie but a goodie floral skirt. And my friend Calder snapped the pics for me. After Josh attempted to... Josh's turned out something like this:

Alright they weren't really that crooked, but they were way out of focus. So big ups to Calder for saving this. Anyway, how about some of the other lovely ladies...

So fun, right? Congrats on the line launch, Meg! I can't wait to see next month's.

Oh, and let's just go ahead and address one last thing. I know my left boob looks like it's about to jump out of your screen and punch you in the face. I mean, yeah it is bigger than the right one. But my angle makes it look 3 times bigger! WTF.

Oh well. Evolve. Meg asked me what it means to me... Embrace change. Seek out the opportunity meant for you.

What does it mean to you?

Oh Gary

I have never, I am quite certain, seen a more enchanting fashion blogger. Feminine and fierce. Sorry to use the word fierce, but frankly she is. I've followed Nicole's blog for a long time now. She's one of the best, if not the best.

A true beauty dressed! Go girl.
