Painted Tortoise

Hurricanes, am I right?

What a snarling, stinking, sloppy mess Sandy was. We were hardly even affected—the power was out for two and a half days, and once my office reopened, getting into work was an expensive challenge—but count me as officially over it.

Mosaic

I don't remember exactly where I picked up Mosaic, but a tiny part of my brain wants to say Buenos Aires (which is a Mecca for vintage, but I'll get more into that later). Honestly, I am a little undecided on wrap dresses; I think this is the only piece in my wardrobe that really qualifies. The idea is fabulous: it never doesn't fit, and if you have a small waist, it's a great way to emphasize that. (If you don't have a small waist, you also look stunning in a wrap dress, because you look stunning in everything, darling.) If any readers have a Diane von Furstenberg hanging around that needs a home, I will definitely conduct further research on wraps and report back.
