> beautiful day


A much need break from my familiar surroundings. I went up to my cottage to relax and catch up on some reading, as it rained pretty much the whole time. I must say, the book "Dry" by Augusten Burroughs is brilliant, as expected. So brilliant that I went out and purchased his new novel: A Wolf at the Table.
Now, at home with decent non-dial-up internet, I am catching up on internet-things which I have missed. Of note is the fabulous fall collection from A.P.C. I'm crushing on the striped pullover and the Pea Coat in Lambswool.

On another note, I am compiling a list of my "staples for my wardrobe". Thus far they are black and grey tights (Hue makes nice basic ones) a pair of skinny black pants and grey pants, a pair of cute booties, and a good-fitting white button down. I'm trying to make my wardrobe a little more work-friendly (I'm doing my internship at a hospital. No jeans. Cry.)

Sounds like you had a wonderful time up at the cottage! I did the same this weekend, and it was lovely.
And yes, I would pretty much wear everything A.P.C. all the time if I could...I am totally swooning for the fall collection in a major way.

P.S. Austen Burroughs is awesome!!
