neve

some very impressive latte art from my favorite café in montréal. seriously, the coffee at café neve is rivaled only by the stuff they serve at monmouth coffee in london.

the year of living glamorously

making an effort to inject a bit more glamour into my everyday life. it began simply enough: more breakfasts in sweet cafés (like café neve, which has the best coffee in montreal) with good reads (then it was "the gentlewoman," with its profile of my favorite lady, phoebe philo; now its "the longest journey," as i've been on an e. m. forster kick lately). i predict living glamorously will also include more soirées, more dressing up (not hard), and more fun.

bag by clare vivier

ok, i know i've been all about the mass/conspicuous consumption lately, but i am totally in love with this clare vivier la tropézienne bag. GORGEOUS. i want, i need. christmas in april, anyone?

also, the designer's blog is seriously awesome, too. i'm dying for her stuart weitzman (shh) clog/sandals. totally getting a pair the moment i'm back home.

update: this bad boy is MINE.

cannot wait to receive my subscription to "apartamento" in the mails. so excited to see pictures of chloe sevigny's apartment. until then, back to my last paper as a master's student (or almost last, with the very big exception of my thesis).
