let’s do lunch

Adding to the list of things I wish I’d acquired before Alt Summit this week: Cute business cards, a cute business card holder, and did I mention a white dress?

‘Tis the season for tinsel… and shimmery shoulder bags. If Santa cares to splurge this year, I’ll take one of these.

self-service

Last weekend some friends of mine got married. The wedding was gorgeous, but I felt mildly guilty the whole time because I haven’t yet gotten them a gift. I thought about what would be useful to have in my own kitchen, and what I wish I had registered for when I got married. And I gotta say, it’s a serving set. Kind of boring, but way classier than the tongs and mismatched salad servers I’m always cobbling together.

little blue box

Last night my husband asked me what I wanted to do for Valentine’s Day. Since it’s a Monday night and we’d have to find a sitter, I suggested that we meet up for a romantic lunch. I’m stumped on what to get him (why do guys even need Valentine’s gifts?), but it should be SO obvious what to get me. And yet, after ten years together, I’ve still never gotten a little blue box from him. Le sigh.

michelle chang jewelry giveaway: skull society

I will testify to the loveliness and wearability of Michelle Chang’s jewelry. I own this and this, and this piece rarely leaves my neck. (All purchased on my own, FTC. All purchased on my own.) Sweet with a prickly edge is how I like to describe Michelle’s designs: skulls don’t seem quite as scary when their diamond eyes can wink at you. Even her mouthless kittens look the tiniest bit sinister.
