Resurfacing for Air

Hello, my dedicated fashion lovers! I know some of you (hi, mom!) have been a bit concerned about my whereabouts. As you may or may not have guessed, I have had lots of real life-related things going on that have kept me away from the internet. (Luckily, it hums along without me! I mean, have you been to style hive lately? Their most popular products page is quickly becoming one of my first clicks of the day. So. Much. Cool. Stuff!)

I've got loads of good links piling up that I want to share about, but today, I'll just start with one: Which is, have you seen the newest batch of Eleanor Grosch Keds now available? (That's them above.) Her animal prints seem to get more fantastic with each new collection. (I sort of completely covet the frog print. Question: How many animal-print shoes is one allowed to own before becoming a little ridiculous?) I'm also keeping my eyes peeled for the new Nanette Lepore Keds collection that's due any day now. (Did you catch the sneak preview in the Dec./Jan. Teen Vogue? There was a really cute pair with a little bow that I love.)

In any case, I am doing my best to find ways to blog more often, so please just bear with me as I adapt to these big adjustments in my life. Also in my wardrobe. I'd forgotten how terribly hard it is to look cute and presentable on a daily basis. Thank goodness for Gap skinny jeans -- they're an all-around wardrobe energizer.

PS) And thanks to everyone who sent in a note about the assistant position! I always had a suspicion that I had lots and lots of really cool readers, and now I know it's true.
