i’ve been watching fat rain drops fall out of the sky all morning wishing they would spontaneously pop into big snowflakes like popcorn. and the weather man keeps lying to me. said snow would be here by lunch. then by 2. and now by 4pm.

On Thursday, I’m going to tell you a secret.

It looks like Sasha Baron Cohen is trying to one up the Leadenhall ladies with his fierce take on the Royal British Guard for his new movie Bruno.

Sending a little vintage lovin' to my hometown!
I’m excited to let you all know that a small collection of some of my favorite vintage pieces are headed to Raleigh as we speak. I’ve decided to send some of my beautiful San Francisco finds to my favorite Raleigh boutique, Catch22.
This is the first time that Catch22 will feature vintage clothing in their store. If this is successful, I will be sending a lot more of my treasure hunt...
