labour day weekend clicks

baptiste lake
Baptiste Lake, by Michael Clesle

This last little bit of summer is just awesome… this has been an incredible summer for me, maybe the best ever. I just finished up some fun projects on tight deadlines, and so I am free to go off to lake, rock and tree country for a couple days.

Since I will be away for a while, you will have to go elsewhere on the internet for your kicks and clicks…

After a summer of rock and indie festivals and a holiday to Ibiza not on the cards for little old me, I needed my fill of dance music.  So what better way to get that Ibiza feeling without the price tag then to head on down to South West Four. With the miserable weather we’ve

Nifty Thrifty

Well, I didn’t find any $5 DVF dresses like I was hoping (stupid optimism always leaving me with failure and sadness!), but I would call the trip a solid success.

I’m trying out a new life motto called, “Don’t buy shit you won’t wear,” so my haul is about half the size of the truckloads I used to direct out of the thrift store and into my closet (where they remain). But here it is:

A Foreign Affair

Forget La Esquina and Da Silvano, the chicest (and arguably the hardest to get into) fashion hangout is now Consulat gГ©nГ©ral de France. Spotted at the visa section today were Serbian beauty Ana Mihajlovich and her exceptionally lithe model friend of Ukrainian nationality. Eastern European greyhounds were applying for Shengen visas in connection with the upcoming fashion weeks. Dressed in de rigeur skinny jeans & cashmere cardigans the beautiful

More Lazy Butt Cookin’

I’m a bit overdue for another lazy butt food post. Truth be told, I could probably take a picture of every dinner this past week and it would qualify. Here a few that I’ve posted to the flickr group, but I thought I’d post them here as well. Afterall, doesn’t everyone want to be inflicted with pictures of my cooking?

ACADEMY OF AMERICAN POETS: SHOES & POETRY

The Academy of American Poets asked me to comment on my favorite shoe poems.

Oh! Poems AND Shoes! Two of my most favorite things together. Like Oreos and Milk or a pair of Wolford tights and my new Louboutins!

Favorite Fit: A Shoe Expert Tries on Poetry
by Meghan Cleary
Poetry is the delicious linguistic and oral art of transformation, taking one thing and holding it in light or dark and watching it transmute.

Pop up problems

Pop up problemsPosted by Danielle Radojcin on 30 Aug 2007  at 11:53 

I’m glad to hear there are others out there, who, like me, can’t find the shoes to match the weather. I’m still in my Repetto suede flats - dangerous, as if there’s the slightest hint of rain, they’ll be ruined. Banana shoes seem to be a popular option (and an update on ballet flats, which are starting to look dated) for lots of women I’ve asked, especially as they’re

Today, We Thrift.

Today my mom and I are making a pilgrimage to a thrift store with more square footage than my hometown. I will be back shortly, hopefully lugging a large mass of discounted treasure, and I’ll be sure to tell you (read: brag incessantly) all about it.

Love and Kisses,
Winona

p.s. My friend Lydia just started a blog yesterday that is already gorgeous and cultured and interesting (just like her, and she also has really good

My See-Through Life

To be honest, I wasn’t that thrilled when my great aunt presented me with three see-through handbags that had been sitting in her closet for around thirty years. Don’t get me wrong; I normally love kooky retro accessories, but I’d always felt that clear purses, like sanitary napkin belts, were an idea best left in history.

But one fateful day about a week ago, there was an unfortunate granola bar explosion in my usual purse. Its understudy,
