I’m really into big, crazy earrings at the moment. These are from a vintage store on Magazine Street in New Orleans.

The earrings jingle when I wear them. Here they are on the knee of a new favorite pair of pants. They are slouchy and loose, perfect for weekend brunches.

Joss papers from H Mart (?), the big Asian grocery in the same shopping center as Spa World in Virginia. The papers on the left are slightly thicker than tissue paper and come in a pack of several different colors with this same great black motif.

Sister: unborn!
me: for a stranger on the street’s child!
Sister: possibly male but who cares!
boys can wear dresses
me: he’ll wear it and he’ll LIKE IT.
Sister: he WILL.

Somebody get this child into some tiny tiny DvF immediately.

Occasionally some combination of light and settings goes all crazy on my camera and I end up with these wild, gorgeous, colorful mistakes. Sometimes the things you don’t plan on end up being kind of amazing.
