Clothes Horse











Photos, Elyse Katz

I can't really explain how much I love this dress. I bought it over a year ago from Buffalo Exchange and it remains one of my favorite items in my closet. It just fits perfectly, it has a peter pan collar, it's in my favorite color, and it features an adorable print; Basically, it's perfect. 

I've spoken before about the ridiculous amount of blogs I read daily, but if I had to choose, The Clothes Horse would be favorite. It's at the top of my bookmark list and it's the very first one I visit every day. It isn't just that Rebecca has lovely style or takes the most stunning photos, I love reading her writing and she's always come across as someone I'd want to be friends with. When she designed this tote bag last year, I think I bought it the day it went on sale. Not only do I love being able to throw things in a tote every so often (especially for class), but the I couldn't help but want to own something designed by someone I admire so much. Well, that, and it was too cute not to get.

I'm starting to count the days until I get to back to Illinois for school. I've definitely gotten a little too comfortable being at home in CA, but I'm ready to get back to work and start being busy again. Besides, all of this free time is doing some major damage to my bank account. I need to stop shopping. Are shopping anonymous groups real? If so, I should probably join one.

  7. First of all, your dress has birds and I love it. I am a fellow bird wearer. Secondly, I'm sort of in love with that tote.
