Reflection

This is what I look like when I check my iPhone on the train. I was just wondering, so I snapped a photo. So sneaky.

Shredded Sign

Like so many signs posted on telephone poles, this one has been forgotten. Since people rarely go around to take them down, passersby are often left wondering whether or not dogs were found or sofas were sold. 

Necklaces

I love necklaces. Each one is beautiful on its own, but I also like the way they look together, so I like to display my jewelry (rather than keep it in a box) so that I can enjoy it all at once. 

My aunt, lisatheisa, gave me the heart necklace you see here. It was designed by Jane Diaz. My aunt found it at a beautiful store called Fragments (I've only visited online). 

Recycled Flowers

I saw these recycled flower ornaments in mer mag, and I was inspired to make some for our apartment. It was fun to get out the glue and do a little craft project, and I absolutely love the way they came out! 

I made six flowers. They're so pretty and they're made out of catalogs that would have been trashed. Some are small, some have tons of petals, some are short, and they're all unique. I'm not sure what I'll do with them yet, but I even like them just sitting on the floor waiting for their own space!

Cold Sunrise

It was 13 degrees when I left to catch the train this morning. My cozy sweater and the magnificent sunrise helped take the bite out of frosty air. Every morning I'm stunned by Mother Nature's fabulous color show, and I'm happy that I leave for work before the real hustle and bustle begins so that I can enjoy it in peace.  

Essays

These days it seems like all I ever think about are business school application essays! 

Stand With A Dog

On a bathroom door, you will often find a picture of a man or a woman - these don't tell us to do anything, but they still gives us information. But don't you think this is a funny sign? What does it say? Stand with a dog! 

Midnight Affair

I was flipping through Harper's Bazaar the other day, and I came across a guide to "Holiday Makeup At Every Age." It featured a navy nail polish in the section dedicated to 20-somethings; I liked the color so much that I went out in search of something similar.

As you can see here, I'm super trendy this season (this may be a first!). I'm wearing Revlon's midnight affair and I'm totally loving it. Honestly, I can't stop looking at my nails. 

Telephone Pole

My mom and dad spotted this telephone pole in Cold Spring, NY on Saturday. 

This pole has been home to fliers, advertisements, and messages for years. The papers have come down, but the nails and staples have been forgotten. They've been left in place to rust.

Feels Like May

This morning the weather man said it would feel like May today, so I thought a spring-y photo would be appropriate. It's December 1st and almost 50 degrees right now - holy moly!
