Shorts
October 8, 2008
Ever since this article came out in July I’ve been pushing the proverbial envelope by, on occasion, wearing dressy-ish shorts to work. If people are allowed to wear KHAKIS well then I should damn well be allowed to wear a classy looking short to work, AM I RIGHT? Anyway, today I wore shorts to work and I am pretty pleased with the outfit, plus I finally found an outfit that worked with these ankle boots from PLRG that Rahel gave me like a year ago. I am wearing them with opaque black tights and an oversized cardigan, and I can’t say I look all too casual, though my favorite security guard AND my coworker both mocked me [all in good fun, of course].

Do I need these in hot pink? (or yellow? to match my bike?)
[We can thank Nick Feeley for throwing a grunge party this weekend, therefore throwing me into a tizzy because I own no Docs at present.]
A short ode to the greatest store in the history of man
September 19, 2008
So I’m headed to NYC in about 4 hours – yipee! This is v. exciting to me as I feel like I haven’t been in like a year or something ridiculous. As luck would have it, Tyler and John were headed up there for a wedding this weekend anyway, so I get a sweet ride to the city and back. This does mean I’ll be forced to listen to a lot of bleeding vagina rock (ask Tyler about his tramp stamp!) on the way, but I think that’s a relatively small price to pay considering the fact that I will not be forced to take the Chinatown bus and sit next to some hairy weirdo that snores and smells like cheetos.
I think one of the biggest reasons that I haven’t been to New York in awhile is because - let’s be honest - if I’m gonna be there, I need money to spend. Not that I’m particularly rollin’ in that scrilla, but I have been somewhat frugal this month so I can afford a few new items - or 1/8 of something from here. So, this begs the question – when you only have one full day in the city, where do you go to shop?
A: Here.
O, Beacon’s Closet, you are, without a doubt, my favorite store in the upper 48. I can spend hours and hours in your glorious dusty warehouse and never get sick of the delightfully color-coded racks and entire room FULL of vintage dresses and skirts. You have provided me with so many amazing items throughout the years - those grey cowboy boots with hearts that I loved so much I wore them in the snow even when they had numerous holes in the soles; that pink sweater with a tie that I just always feel like wearing; those vintage white heels with little pastel circles that consistently look perfect with a 60’s style dress. And let’s not forget one of my most favorite things I’ve ever bought – the blue dress with red tulle that I wore in Colleen’s wedding. There are few things I’ve ever owned that I’ve felt better in than that piece. Here’s a pic of me wearing the beaut with two of my fav Brooklynites and one awesome Baltimorian:
Who knows what kind of special treasures await me this weekend – besides Rahel Ganin, that is.
I will purchase and report back – have a fantastic weekend everyone!
