Well, MC and I sure had an interesting Valentines Day. On our way to work in the morning, a guy either blew or slid through a stop sign, and we would have hit him square in the middle of his dri...
Happy Valentines Day! MC have little more in mind for the evening than eating vegan treats, watching a choice movie, and spending a little quality time in our new digs -- so I thought Id honor the ho...
It would probably bee too cold to wear this outfit today, but it wasnt so bad a few days ago, when I actually wore it. The climates mood swings are hard to keep up with. Dress: Anna Sui for TargetLeo...
Does this outfit make me look strong? I hope so because I wore it while moving furniture! MC and I set out last Saturday looking for a new couch, and by golly, we found one. A gorgeously reupholstere...
I regret my lack of forethought while posing for these pictures. Surely, when wearing a fancy looking and decidedly shrunken military inspired jacket, one should always get at least one shot posing l...
I actually wore this lacy outfit last week, but its just as well that I didnt get around to posting it until today, as Ive mostly been wearing worn out jeans and concert t-shirts for the past few day...
Readers keep asking if my the brass pendant Ive been wearing was a "housewarming" gift from MC, so I thought Id give everybody a closer look! Here it is, along with my gift to MC -- a tiny li...
It goes without saying at this point that MC likes to dress well; clearly, style is one of the many interests we connect on. Incidentally, he also has the luxury of looking good even when he makes ze...
Were moved into our new house, and I have an arsenal of content locked and loaded for the coming month, from outfits, to home decorating, to my new huge and totally stuffed closet. In the meantime, h...

I had an adorable outfit lined up for today, with some sky-high heels and semi-exposed legs. But I chickened out when I remembered I had a DENTIST APPOINTMENT. Its freezing outside and I hadnt had my...
Call me crazy, but Im pretty sure most lovers of vintage clothing and antique housewares tend to also be fans of historic homes. As yet another expression of style and craftsmanship, its part and par...
MC and I are closing on our house today! Consequently, Im a little behind on my blogging, so here are some miscellaneous pictures Ive had laying around, mostly from home -- or our soon-to-be former h...
Its really only "shorts weather" if you have tights on underneath, and plan on putting your big, heavy winter coat back on as soon as youre done taking pictures. ;)Sweater: Pierre Cardin, thr...
How was your weekend? MC and I spent most of ours moving the last of our stuff and beginning the process of unpacking -- which means Ill be able to post some real, honest-to-goodness outfit posts ver...
Well, thanks to immense help from my ridiculously strong parents (especially my dad -- being 70 years old means nothing to a man who LIFTS 100 LB. DUMBBELLS WITH EACH ARM!!), our stuff is moved into ...
Were moving the last of our furniture today, so Im in no position to take or upload any new pics. So how about I just embarrass myself with this cache of MIDDLE SCHOOL PHOTOS?!?! They do technically ...
I think of myself as a pretty adventurous dresser. However, even I dont find myself wearing these red and black check skinny jeans on a basis I would call "regular."Combat Boots: Vintage via ...
Does this look like a good outfit for forking over large sums of money? Because thats what I did this morning. In order to speed things along, we wire transferred our down payment for our house to th...
Thank you everybody so much for the kind words yesterday about MC and I buying our new house! Or rather -- buying our new old house (1927 was a long time ago). Purchasing our house has been a L...
Somehow, I dont think the all-caps style of this post title is making the sentiment any more convincing. I was hoping to make this straight-out-of-bed look seem intentional.Itchy Shetland Wool Sweate...
Between hair cuts (not to mention *ahem* colors), there are days when a blow dryer and an extra 10 minutes in front of the mirror just doesnt pass the cost/benefit analysis. Those are days for a litt...
I came pathetically close to slipping on the near-invisible ice in our alley about four times while posing for these pictures. Just FYI.Jeans: RadcliffeSweater: JCrew via my AuntSilk Scarf, belt: Thr...
Check out this video from The Canastas show last week! The sound is slightly out of synch with the video, leading to the unsettling effect that I am snapping my fingers out of time with the music. Bu...
I cant believe Im posting this.Picture taken by MC, who rightly thought that this cuddly moment was worth documenting, despite my puffy face and bedhead. I really love my cat, you guys.

MC and I are so crazy about this music video from Duran Duran -- a concept vid in which a handful of 90s glamazons (Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Helena Christensen, Eva Herzigova) actually play th...
Sorry for the holiday hiatus! I have lots of great pictures from Christmas, but while Im busy resizing all those, heres a basic outfit post for you featuring one of lifes simple, fashion pleasures: a...
My best friend Margaret gave me this vintage wool cape for Christmas a few years ago, and I always save it for a terribly frigid day in winter, since its ability to insulate is truly mind-blowing, an...
