Rose Tint My World

It does seem that when it matters, location is everything! I have been in Charlotte, NC this week tending to some work related business *ahem* at Southpark Mall. What can I say? When my boss sends me on the 1.5hr drive, he knows there is going to be a detour. God bless the man that understands the power of shopping.

This week’s purchases include this Banana Republic springy floral print, perfect for a Charleston graduation or paired with a hat for Easter!

And this Banana Republic everlasting rose tinted frock. Originally ~~$150~~, listed online for ~~$126.99~~, but now $84.99 at Southpark! Ah, Location. I would not be caught dead wearing it with those tights though. Stay tuned for appropriatly paired pictures.

And just because I’m always on the quest for the perfect lipstick shade-- a rose by any other name still smells as sweet, Clinique Rose Spectrum Lipcolor

What sort of diary should I like mine to be? Something loose-knit and yet not slovenly, so elastic that it will embrace anything, solemn, slight or beautiful, that comes into my mind. I should like it to resemble some deep old desk or capacious hold-all, in which one flings a mass of odds and ends without looking them through. I should like to come back after a year or two, and find that the collection had sorted itself and refined itself and coalesced, as such deposits so mysteriously do, into a mould, transparent enough to reflect the light of our life, and yet steady, tranquil compounds with the aloofness of a work of art. The main requisite, I think, on reading my old volumes, is not to play the part of a censor, but to write as the mood comes or of anything whatever; since I was curious to find how I went for things put in haphazard, and found the significance to lie where I never saw it at the time.

I grew up watching cooking shows instead of cartoons. I get whisks and pastry brushes in my Christmas stocking instead of traditional trinkets. My favorite thing to do is frost a cupcake. My undergraduate degree was in Theatrical Costume Design, which means I take pride in how I am presented. I own monogrammed wine glasses, and my own set of Italian Vietri China. I collect English tea cups, and love a good cucumber sandwhich. I shop at J.Crew and Banana Republic and I have traveled to over %9 of the world. This blog began as a travel log while I was abroad, however like most things in life-- plans are subject to change, so here's to good food and good fashion!
