Hi from Baltimore! I’ve been having lots of fun hanging out with my grandma and doing some relaxing with my mom and sister! Obviously, good food has been involved. Some highlights have been the authentic Maryland crab cakes, whiskey sours at the retirement center’s bar, and an enormous bread pudding that I shared with Kath. And the Loehmann’s shopping was fabulous! Though I didn’t find a striped clutch, I found another cute handbag and four dresses! I also found my…

No trip to Baltimore is complete without stopping into the Towson Loehmann’s. My grandmother has been shopping there for like 50 years! Spring is here, so I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled for the following: A white blazer. I just gave away my old one away because it was too small and had stains on it. I’d love to find a longish one that’s also soft! Colored flats to add a pop to jeans days. A striped clutch for a…
Another year, another Labor day; it’s time for that post again. We all love fall clothes, and every year, I take peak at the new arrivals online, and I fall in love. This year? Not so much. I had to actually do some digging and searching to find pieces that felt new and different, and even the picks below don’t feel particularly fall-ish. Perhaps I’m getting too picky or perhaps I need to physically see and touch the items? I…
I feel like a huge weight is off my shoulders. I’m finished with all of my assessment cases and IEP meetings. A few more counseling cases to see next week and I’m done and done with this internship. Whew. And it’s [fashion] Friday! I snagged these wooden shoes for $19 with a gift card at Urban. The color isn’t exactly what I was hoping for, but at that price, I couldn’t resist. And this toddler at the retirement party seemed…
I’ve really enjoyed the break from work clothes this week. It’s not that I mind them that much, but sometimes it’s just nice to get out of the shower and put on a pair on jeans. It’s still not warm enough to even put away my down coat (ok, I like to be really warm). But, Matt took me to my absolute favorite southwestern restaurant for $5 tapas last night, so I took the opportunity to sneak a summery top…
If there’s any place for sequins, it’s the Jersey Shore… I mentioned that I’m going to the beach this weekend, but not just any beach…Atlantic City! I’ve actually never been to Vegas or gambled (with the exception of slots on cruises), so I’m excited to see what it’s all about. I cringe at the thought of handing over money in a casino, but since a co-worker taught me the basics of Craps, I might just give it a try.…
So, I left you guys hanging on a few things and I thought I’d give you an update. First, the running shoes issue. I actually took the Asics home with me and ran a mile on the treadmill. Something had changed. These aren’t the same shoes I’ve been running in for three years. They felt stiff and heavy:( So, I went back and brought home the Brooks!! They definitely feel different (in a good way), but I have yet to…
