Hi Everyone!
As you can tell, I'm excited for the weekend. While I am not going anywhere, I have been thinking about all the fun things there are to explore here in New York City. I just finished a great non-fiction account of Amazonian Exploration, and Liutenant Col. Percy Fawcett, called "The Lost City of Z"...which makes me want to get out into the Lost City of NYC....Perhaps I'll venture over to Central Park or Governors Island... or maybe just around the corner to pick up a can o beans, some weenies, and a black and white movie. Anyway, Summer in the City requires creativity, perserverance, and a good, comfortable pair of shoes. Beans are optional. And for the record, I don't think Lt Col. Fawcett would EVER carry a striped tote.
Clickable Things:
Simple Striped Tote Bag here
Field Notes here
Squaw's Necklace here
Cool Bird Feeders (although I can see a squirrel making an easy trip up and into this) here
Faithful Saddle Shoes. Get ready for a big comeback. here
Enjoy your weekends all, and don't forget to write. Thanks so much for visiting. I had a wonderful, wonderful time posting this week! xx s
So fantastic! That necklace! Swoon, swoon, swoon! Great picks hun, I hope you have a fantastic weekend my dear!

I love those saddle shoes! I'm such a dork and happy to see the trend in oxfords. I want to pick up a pair.

Me too! I used to have a pair in 4th grade-- I got them @thom mcann. They were totally battered and beat up, and that made them look even better!
