bits and little pieces

Fried eggs, bright cherry red, Van’s sneakers, avoiding haircuts.

If this were The Sound of Music and I were Julie Andrews, all of these things would be in a song, and I would be singing on a snow topped mountain instead of a dirt road. Anyways, you know what else I like? FOXES.

Foxes are fast and sleek and red and wonderful. I love them more than any other animal on God’s green earth. Foxes (NOT the real live version) are also wonderful things to wear. Thankfully, lots of stores have caught on to this fact recently. Not so thankfully, my wallet is in pain. Lately my favorite foxes have been the ones on my ears. My wonderful sister made a day (hint hint mine) when a package arrived at school with these pretty little things inside. I wouldn’t be lying if I told you I’ve worn them (almost) every day.

Another favorite thing is this outfit. It seems to be the most versatle thing I’ve ever decided to wear, morping into the perfect interview, presentation, and even snow-trampling outfit. It’s thrown together with old things and new, but I’ve added links to (almost) perfect copies below.

Happy spring

(or should I say snow day)

love,

I think we can all come to a mutual consensus in agreeing that blanket scarves are the next best thing (maybe even since sliced bread). Purchasing mine has given me a reason to not drag (actual) blankets around the house, a very practical accessory, and a toasty warm neck. So far, it’s been worn to Christmas Eve dinner, church, class, and even bed (yes, it’s that comfy). The fact that it is ALSO my favorite plaid makes it a very frequent addition to many many outfits.

Here, I’ve done a little research and made you a lovely list of darling blanket scarves. I’m telling you, they’re the essential you never knew you needed.

Have a wonderful day, and stay toasty!

love,

Maddie
