LUCY!!

…okay, I know I have some ‘splainin’ to do about my lack of blogging the last couple of days (weeks?). But in my defense, I had a wonderful Christmas with my family that was delightfully technology-free. Except for the Kindle I surprised my mom with- she loves it. Suffice it to say, my gift to myself this year was “unplugging” for a little while, and it felt oh-so good. The good news is, after a week or-so sans writing, I’m simply bursting at the seams with things I can’t wait to share with you all!

…So why is it that all I can think about is JCrew’s new years arrivals? Oh, right. Because they’re adorable, per usual. Fitted fisherman sweaters, horizontal stripes and a slew of better-than-basics that are just begging me to click “Add To Bag.” Here are a few of my favorites:

Ripplestitch Sweater, $88.00

Jackie Pullover, $65.00

Toothpick Jean in Garment Dyed Twill, $108.00

How I have survived 23 years without pale pink pants is now a complete mystery to me. I can already feel my Christmas money burning a hole in my pocket.*

*I once had a yoga teacher that used the visual of “birds flying out of a nest” as a tool for clearing your mind. Well right now that would be a more appropriate representation of my wallet than my mind.

Plenty of Holiday stories and details on the gifts I can’t stop wearing, coming soon.

xoxo,

Need This Now.

Brompton Hobo in Henna, JCrew.com

Swoon Alert: JCrew Spring 2011 is everything I could possibly want or need for my closet this Spring. In fact I took the liberty of circling my selections the entire catalog and leaving it on my parents’ kitchen counter for a rainy day where they feel like buying me things. A girl can dream, right? However, of all the gorgeous clothes, it’s their Brompton Hobo bag that has me hooked. Let’s go to the list…

Slouchy hobo shape? Check.

Doubles as a cross body bag? Check.

Rich tobacco leather? Check.

…let’s face it. This bag meets more of my personal criteria than my last boyfriend. Now if only my paycheck were as roomy as the bag. What accessory are you lusting after for Spring?
