What I Wore-Thrifted Leather on Leather

Over the weekend it got to a balmy 40 something degrees (uhg, Spring please come!) so I got to switch up my coat, which I was sadly so excited about. I bought this leather bubble coat (that turns into a vest!) at Salvation Army’s annual Winter Coat Sale, I read about this sale on Tales from the Thrift and it is the best thing ever! If you’re in NY you MUST go! I’m not super into matching, but I really loved… View Post

I have a wonderful job but even when I didn’t I really did my best and was my best at every place I’ve worked whether that’s been selling glasses or xeroxing a million scripts and I have to say it’s served me well and makes me feel great.… View Post

Save the Ballerina Project

Way back when I wrote about the Ballerina Project because there is something I really really love about the feeling and composition of their photographs. So I was sad to hear when the Ballerina Project might end by this summer. For me it would be a great loss if the Ballerina Project closed, their images always feel like fresh air in my feeds and I would truly truly miss them. How to Help the Ballerina Project: So there is a… View Post
