SHOP UPDATESSS






I'm posting new items today, tomorrow, and everyday next week ! Here's a taste of some of the housewares I've been collecting. Make sure to check back to see what's  WT.

I hope you've had a lovely holiday, indulged a little, and are looking forward to the new year ! I've been thinking a lot about goals/resolutions - for myself, for the shop... I can't wait to see what 2012 brings !

MODEL BROTHER



Thanks to my handsome and talented brother, Josh, for modeling the WT dude wears ! Our family had a great few days together - I was sad to see he and Shannon go. Check out the update - he looks great !

CATHY COOPER: ON THE WITCHY SIDE







I've been following Jeana Sohn's blog and work for a few years and my absolute favorite project of hers is CLOSET VISIT. It's always inspiring. Especially her latest - stylist Cathy Cooper's closet. What first struck me is Cathy's AMAZING gray mane. I've often daydreamed of long, thick, gray hair as an older woman - it looks spectacular on her. She is definitely a new style idol in all of her tomboyish femininity.

STUFF MY STOCKING

Stuff My Stocking


Rose + Vanilla Lip Tint $8 - Dragonfly Eye Pillow $28 - Coffee + Cardamom Body Scrub $36 - Love Grenade Coin Bank $32 - Bulletproof Necklace $46 - Whistler Necklace $46 - I Record Only The Sunny Hours Notebook (Tumblr) - Momofuku Compost Cookies $12 - Arrow Key Chain $16 

I've had trouble putting together my wish book this year. I don't know what I really want all that badly and I don't feel like I NEED anything - so I just started pulling together fun things, things I think about from time to time, but never buy for myself... That seemed like a good idea.

This list however, is to inspire those of you that are still looking for the perfect gift. My FAVORITE whiskey and vodka, the MOST delicious cookies I've sampled (and resampled), a few other objects I've taken a liking to + a tote to carry it all home in !

I hope everyone is making merry these last couple weeks before the holiday ! x

BLACK DOG SALVAGE +











On Friday, in between thrift stores, I went to Black Dog Salvage in Roanoke. Pile upon pile and room after room of salvaged architectural wares, antiques, and treasures. These photos don't do it justice. I wish I had something to remodel...

While thrifting I found the shop glassware, silk, and denim. For me - a soft wool/rabbit sweater, those sweet suede ankle boots, and cupcakes. :) I also tried on a vintage 1940's wool tuxedo jacket (sorry, no photo) - it was a little big, but now I definitely want to add one to my wardrobe.

Ps. I'm still in disbelief that it's December. Where did this year go ? Anyone ?

SKINNY LOVE






Sharing some recent photo inspiration curated by R. MAJEWSKI and serenaded by the beautiful Bon Iver. Has anyone heard this cover of Skinny Love? I love the innocence and strength of her voice.

Lastly, I spent the day traipsing about Roanoke, VA - thrifting, salvaging, and trying on vintage wears at a lovely consignment shop. I'll share more next week. Until then, have a great weekend. x
