Fall Coats - Part 2
After much back and forth and gathering opinions, I think I’m going to buy the Capella Coat. However, I’m also looking at some other non J.Crew options now. The two below have caught my eye. They’re more expensive, but I think the quality and design speak for themselves. So now, I’m trying to decide if I should purchase one of these instead!

Currently Loving: Bodkin
Yesterday I wrote a whole post about what I wanted for my birthday… and when I posted it, Tumblr erased the whole thing. But a large chunk of it was how much I love the Bodkin F/W 2010 Collection. Everything looks so comfortable, but still interesting. I especially love the sweater that knots at the bottom, I feel like I could just curl up in it all winter. They have a slew of stockists...

Winter Wear: Zara Edition
As I previously wrote, I was in complete denial last year that I needed any winter clothes. So yesterday I went down to Zara to pick up some sweaters. I ended up buying two sweaters and a nice pair of pleated pants that I’ve been wanting some time now.

They fit great and are really comfortable. I’m actually wearing a similar outfit to this photograph today....

Fall Coats
So I’ve surprised Alex by showing him a bunch of jackets/coats I’ve owned but never worn. However, I am still looking for a medium weight fall coat that I can wear in the fall, and layer for the winter. For some reason I’m stuck on these two J.Crew coats, so please comment and let me know which one you prefer!
Option 1: Bonbon Coat
I’ve been lusting over this coat for...

Bramwell Family Visit
This past weekend Alex’s parents, brother and his wife, and aunt were all here visiting. It was a weekend of showing them around our favorite spots and of course doing a few touristy things that I haven’t done yet including going to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.
My favorite thing was probably going to the MoMA, although we only had a few hours there and me and Alex will...

IT'S-IT Ice Cream in New York City
This post is inspired by Peter and Jordan’s posts recently about It’s-It.
I’m a Bay Area native, and growing up we had It’s-It at our school lunch lines, we had them at our grocery stores, it was pretty common. But pretty common isn’t something that should be overlooked. It is an incredibly delicious ice cream sandwich, with two cookies on the outside and delicious...
