easy saturdays

Lazy Saturday which consisted of: waking up a little past noon, browsing aimlessly through my favorite blogs in a trance-like state (as per usual), tossing around scruffy old toys for the mere enjoyment of seeing my dog pounce on them like a cat and taking him for a much-needed stroll through the winding paths of the park in my hometown. Before heading back to whip up homemade fruit crepes with the boyfriend and veg out on the sofa, I just had to capture some shots of this beautiful gifted talon cuff from my special friend at MODTOAST. The quality of the hardware is impeccable, as always.  I also adore it's contrasting element as well - the almost fierce style of the talons paired with something soft like a knit jumper or free-flowing dress adds to the piece's it-factor. I can't thank you enough!

Nothing beats the feeling of taking a few hours of off-time from a hectic work week. Especially when such a day involves succulent coconut-almond-nutella crepes followed by searing hot cafe au lait, and frivolous wandering around the West Village with the boyfriend. Quite serene to say the least. Here, I'm wearing a new blouse from American Gold that I ordered from Stanton James. If you close your eyes and run your hands through it it feels almost identical to rose petals. Lucas actually pointed this out first and after petting it a while he was pretty spot on. I find myself always gravitating towards it every time I get dressed, which is probably why I wore it three days in a row. And in terms of comfort level, it's definitely high up on the charts. I've also been carrying around this Foley + Corinna tote, which I consider to be a loyal old friend. I can't even remember when I got it (6-7 years ago maybe?), but it has never left my side. And the leather aged so beautifully over the years - highly recommend!
