The Week in Instagram Roundup – San Diego Comic Con
Hey kids, here’s the second experimental installment of my Instagram Roundup – this time covering Comic Con, and spanning from July 16 to July 23rd. I had only three days back at the house between returning from Portland and leaving for a work trip to SDCC, and I know I must have been tired, because…
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale vs. Amazon: Shoes, Loafers, Mules, and Boots
With every blogger on the internet compiling Nordstrom Anniversary Sale favorites, I got the idea to compare the sale’s prices to shopping on Amazon. I chose shoes as the comparison because shoes are both something that I think Amazon excels at, and also something that I, personally, would realistically shop for at Nordstrom proper. (I’ll…
The Week in Instagram + Bloglovin Roundup – Portland, Oregon Coast, and Washington
Here’s my week in Instagram pictures and Bloglovin mini-posts from Saturday July 8th to Sunday July 15th. No, that’s not exactly a week. But I’m cheating this one a little in order to make it span the entire trip to Oregon and Washington, and the wind-down day back in Dallas afterward. This was my last…
7 Unconventional Home Decor Touches That Martha Stewart WOULD Have Done If She Liked Dinosaurs More and Was More Eclectic
What if Martha Stewart liked dinosaurs and Studio Ghibli movies a lot more? What if she liked taking the time to do things perfectly a lot less? I think that all things in the world should be done in the way that reflects what is important to you, what makes life a little more enjoyable…
PSA: Teva Flatforms are a Sound Investment, and I Have a Sale Alert
Public Service Announcement: There’s a Teva sale on at Haute Look right now, if you’ve caught this blog right away. Most prices are around the $40 point, and this sale is the widest selection of colors and styles of Teva platforms I’ve seen in one spot. Like anyone one with reasonably good taste, I…
Challenge Accepted: Floral Bomber Jacket and Faux Pixie Cut OOTD
Confession: I actually really do not like floral, generally speaking. But I love bomber jackets, and very light layers. Recently I’ve been enjoying attempting to adapt trends that I don’t really care for into something that I actually like (for example – I did my own version of glitter roots at Christmas). Its a way…
Spinster Records and Seoul Kitchen, Oak Cliff, Dallas
1. Drive down to the Green Lights of Dallas; drive past them. Over Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge and past the new trolley tracks, to Davis Street – 829. Find Spinster Records illuminated on the dark end of the street, past the bars and sidewalks of Bishop Arts. 2. Walk through the open door. 3. Wander…

Hi-Low Skirts and Concert Tees – I Have These for Brunch – OOTD
Confession: I really couldn’t decide between two full body shots for this post, so I’m probably going to post a gif alternating between the two of them on Instagram. Also writing copy for outfit posts is awkward. On one of the mornings, early in spring, when Dallas was starting to feel like itself again, I…
I Unfollowed WhoWhatWear; It Felt Great
Confession: I’ve more than once wanted to commemorate unfollowing someone – either a blog, or on Twitter, or Instagram, or whatever – with a liberated rant post, but I’ve always felt too bad to do it. I really, really, wanted to tell you about it once when I unfollowed a very popular blog. I wanted…
Japan’s Fox Village – How to Get There, What to Expect
Imagine waking up in the city of the future, boarding a train.. imagine flying like a bullet through clouds of mist that finally break to reveal mountains above green fields, all the while opening small beautiful packages and eating the mysterious foods within.. imagine arriving in a small train station, unsure of where to go…
