Coloring isn't just for kids

Seriously, how much fun does this look?  Found on the blog Neo-traditionalist, this would be a perfect rainy day activity.  Plus drinking wine.  Who cares about staying inside the lines anyway?

Hmm

Cool?  Or would this drive you crazy?

I love these 8MM movies by A Bryan Photo.   I am also still really obsessed with this wedding Calder designed last spring.  If I were Megan and Mihir, I think I'd pour myself a glass of wine and watch this every night.  It really wouldn't get old.  Here's more...

Until I can afford a real knuckle buster, I am loving this one for $68.00 from J. Crew.   I also totally love this.

Ain't so bad.   I need me a grey fur stat.

I'm out!

Friends!  I'm off to Dubai, Oman and London with two of my college roommates for the next two weeks.  I don't think we've done something just us since W&L... and that was a long time ago!

In an effort to be a better blogger AND ensure some sleep on the 15 plane ride across the ocean, I've stayed up past my bedtime and written a post for each day that I'm gone.   Hope you enjoy.

I may or may not be able to update while I'm "over there", but will give a full report when I get back. 

Will miss you!

LOVING

I am loving the spring J. Crew preview... especially the J.Crew Collection lookbook. 

It snowed again today and they're calling for 20+ inches on Saturday.   However, I can tell you where it's NOT snowing-- Oman!  Yes!

Effortless Chic of the Day

This entire outfit is Lands' End.   Talk about a label I haven't thought about in a long time... 

Liz! You're leaving for the Middle East in less than 48 hours AND you haven't started packing! How does that make you feel?

Yeah, it's about to be code red over here.  I took an unexpected trip to Charleston this weekend to visit some friends for work... more on that later. 

Needless to say, I'm a little...hmmm... behind.  Big time.

Uh oh

Sorry for the lack of posts this week-- I got a mildly traumatic haircut on Wednesday.  I walked in wanting just a couple inches and walked out with a chin length do.   I drank an entire bottle of wine last night... and possibly the night before.   I don't think I've had hair this short since middle school.

Have any of you had to go back to your hairdresser to fix a bad cut?   How did you handle it?

I spotted this on Elements of Style this morning and had to post.   HAD TO.

After watching this save the date video, I'm tempted to stalk Erin and Jeff  and send them a wedding gift.   This is awesome.

One week until lift off!

I love this pic.  It just makes me happy to think that spring is just around the corner…

I also have got to buy a pair of nude peepie t’s this spring.

Cheap & Chic & CHEAP

With the trip coming up next Thursday, I decided to check out Old Navy to see if they had any Middle East worthy, cotton, easy-to-travel, cheap dresses.   If, say, I need to make room for multiple rugs, textiles and a mound of jewelry in my suitcase,  I won't have a problem parting with one or two of these in Oman.

All are under $20.00.

These shirt dresses are perfect and are desperately calling for awesome jewelry and sandals.  And a scarf.   And a camel.

This striped dress is only $10.00.  Perfect with a trench coat and flats for spring.
