Just a lot more of “the same” around here this week. Mike and I are definitely starting to feel a little stir crazy. Trying to get out as much as possible– walking the dogs, just going for a walk, driving through to get a coffee. With the excitement of Christmas behind us, I think the reality of winter is setting in. This is when I’d usually have a few trips lined up just to beat the monotony, but obviously that’s not the case this year. Going to have to get creative if anyone has any ideas… I AM ALL EARS.
ON MY RADAR 1.15.20
Here’s what’s been on my radar this week:
ONE // Gingham Sweatshirt
How adorable is this gingham sweatshirt from The Tiny Tassel? I love the perfect cornflower blue paired with the light pink. Would be the perfect thing to wear when you’re looking for a bit more cheery color.
TWO // “A Pandemic of Broken Toes”
I’ve become a pandemic statistic. A couple of weeks ago I broke my pinky toe… while walking in my house. It was the dumbest thing of all time and hurt like crazy. It’s still pretty bruised but the swelling has gone down a ton and I can walk normally again. But apparently toe injuries are on the rise because people are spending so much time at home without shoes on. Obviously this is not a huge issue all things considered with everything going on with the pandemic, but… it’s a good reminder to wear slippers
THREE // Cute Sneakers
Maybe it’s because of my broken toe or because we’re not getting dressed up for anything, but I’ve been living in my sneakers. I have a few pairs of my casual/athletic shoes that are super worn down and I haven’t gotten around to replacing yet. I may go for these light pink beauties.
FOUR // Wellness Influencers and the QAnon Connection
I am fascinated– and deeply, deeply disturbed– by QAnon. What seemed like a “fringe” group of Pizzagate believers has now, unfortunately, gone mainstream. I feel like every single person that I know knows at least one person who has fallen “down the hole” so to speak. It’s scary to watch friends, family, coworkers get further and further radicalized by this group.
FIVE // Starry Lake Pajamas
Lake Pajamas just released a limited edition print of pajamas with little stars on a light blue fabric. I have a pair from a few years ago when they did royal blue stars and they’re one of my favorites. Whenever I wear them people ask if they’re still available…. so now is your chance to get this year’s version! I am obsessed.
