I've really needed some inspo to get my mind of off my car accident, and these have really done the trick (especially the necklace -- the anticipation of that little purchase is getting me through the week). Here's a huge thank you to all of my girls who've wished me well -- things are almost back to normal over here. Well, as normal as my life gets, anyhow.
Nameplate necklaces are no new invention, I know. Most people know them from Carrie's days, but I grew up with them (sort of a Brooklyn thing) and now I want one of my own. It's the perfect dainty necklace for layering and literally says, "hello world, this is me!"
I'm sure I've mentioned that I'm from New York, and I miss it everyday. I read the New York times to get my fix of city life and this week I came across their Metropolitan Diary blog. What's cool about it is that the stories are submitted by New Yorkers who want to share the little moments of their day that are quintessentially New York. I'll submit a story one of these days but until then, you can read the latest post: An Art Review in the Subway.
Always has launched this #likeagirl campaign and I think it's just great. I know it's a part of their branding and is ultimately for profit, but the message is still one of empowerment. If you want to see some more #girlpower, this video is a good one about limiting girl's under the guise of protection.
Kendi from Kendi Everyday is one of my favorite bloggers, and from the above picture I'm sure you can tell why. She makes simple style exciting. I love how she layered a loose crop top over a blousy tank because it shows that clothes can have multiple lives. It gives your closet longevity, and this is a perfect summer example of that.
I'm always trying to find little ways to improve my vocabulary and feed my brain. The Quizzitive app, an extension of the Merriam-Webster Word of the Day app, is a new favorite. It's free, simple to use and keeps my brain from turning to mush. It's the adult's modern day vocabulary quiz.
