For the Boys-Ode to Bro

Here is the Bro! Broski hates taking pictures (much like me in real life), but I know he loves this one. These were taken last year when I and bro and a bunch of friends went skydiving.… View Post

Smile File-National Bike Month
May is National Bike Month!!! I started riding my bike into work last year and it’s the best thing ever! Save time, save money, I’m spared the crowd and smell of the subway commute :).

Now you might think that New York is a little dangerous to ride your bike to work and I completely see why you would think this but really with all… View Post
What I Wore and This Old Tee Craft
One of my dearest friends and her boyfriend held an Art Day/Craft Night at their apartment a few weeks ago and it was mega super duper fun. This is what I wore. (necklace-buffalo exchange; shoes and cutout tee-urban outfitters; jeans-h&m) But more importantly!! This is what I brought to Craft Night. Some old t-shirts that were destined to become dust rags or getting donated, knitting needles, and beginner yarn to teach a darling friend how to knit. The goal of… View Post

Crushing on Osborn Shoes
I came across Osborn Design in an old vendor highlight from Brooklyn Flea. I think they’re shoes are just extraordinary. Beautifully and highly designed but really really practical for my walking life. Now the shoes left my mouth agape but the philosophy and fair trade practices of Osborn Design is what I find most inspiring. Co-founder Aaron Osborn’s family runs one of the largest orphanages in Guatemala and after meeting an unemployed cobbler in 2007 he was inspired. Aaron with… View Post
