The Sky is Falling

I took these photos last week in Denver, but the snow couldn't be more appropriate. I've been in South Lake Tahoe since Saturday, and it certainly feels like the sky is falling here. I'm not used to this wet, heavy snow, but I'm loving the chance to check out a couple of new ski resorts, even with some rain at the base. I hope you're having a good week!

Eat, Sleep, Drink, and Be In Love

I can think of no better figure to celebrate Black History Month with than Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Denver commemorates some pretty great people in its parks. If you haven't yet, check out Langston Hughes' "Theme for English B," read Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man, and watch Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing. I'm pretty sure you won't be disappointed.

Be Mine

 I ended up wearing this outfit to celebrate Valentine's Day last week at Osaki, an amazing sushi restaurant in Vail Village with my special someone, and it couldn't have been more perfect. With all of the snow in Denver and Vail I ended up wearing my Rag & Bone Harrow booties and adding my Helmut Lang coat to stay warm, but I still felt festive in this top and skirt. So often the subtlest details mean the difference between ok and spectacular. Here, there was just enough pink to make this work, especially with the feathered skirt.

I Am the Walrus

I hope you had a fabulous Valentine's Day! It started snowing early in the day in Denver, which definitely changed my outfit choice for the evening, so expect those photos soon. I'll be taking President's Day off, but I hope you have a wonderful long weekend!

Breakfast at Tiffany's

I'm channeling Holly Golightly for my most formal Valentine's Day look, though I may end up wearing something warmer tonight. It's going to be cold in the mountains! And we got our reservations, which I'm very happy about. Thanks for the good vibes on that one!

Happy Valentine's Day, to all of you. I hope your day is filled with love.

Give Me Your Eyes, I Need Sunshine

 As I'm sure you've noticed, I love winter. Even more so since moving to Colorado, and the snow filled Rocky Mountains. However, those random sunny, sixty degree days that Denver gets mid-winter are still very much appreciated. Friday was one of them.

The Love of the Last Tycoon

There's something serenely tragic about that final unfinished novel of Fitzgerald's, and it has me pulling it off the shelf this week to bury my head in those Hollywood lives. 

Do you re-read books? Sometimes, I feel like I'm visiting one of my favorite places. And sometimes I just need some advice. And there's nothing more romantic than Fitzgerald's love for Zelda, and it seeps into his writings, there for the taking.

For Emma, Forever Ago

 These photos are from a drizzly, Bon Iver appropriate day at the Century City Mall in LA. Please excuse the over-appearance of this jacket this week. It was the only one that made sense during my freezing-by-LA-standards stay.
