Put A Lid On It

Hats are my go to accessory when the weather starts to get cooler. Nothing like being fashion forward while masking your bad hair day and keeping your head warm. I can't get enough of them! I recently bought this adorable Daisy Cloche from Brooklyn Industries and made a point to wear it this past weekend. The cold and wind were awful, but the hat kept me looking perfectly put together.

Here are some more styles I have my eye on...

Stitch Banded Hat available at Free People- $58

Zaffre Fedora available at Anthropologie- $48

Bailey® for J.Crew Felt Hat available at J.Crew- $98

Grosgrain Panama Hat available at Urban Outfitters- $39

My oh my...it's been too long! So much has been going on lately. I feel like I've been going in circles. I'm still getting over being sick (this cough is just lingering), and we have been apartment hunting in our free time. Well, it seems like today I can take a deep breath and relax because we got approved for the apartment we wanted in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Our lease starts in December, and I'm so excited! The best part is that we will finally have a view. All the years I have lived in Manhattan we have always just had a "true New York City View"...i.e. a brick wall. In the new apartment we have a view of the Williamsburg Bridge, lower Manhattan, and an iconic Brooklyn water tower. *sigh* I can't wait to share photos with you all.


Sleeping Off The Sickness

Saturday morning I woke up with a scratchy throat and swollen glands. By Saturday evening I had the sniffles. Sunday I spent most of the afternoon in bed still feeling quite awful. So I thought that by today (Monday) I'd be feeling better for work. It's just a head cold after all. Boy was I wrong. I got to work and lasted there for about three hours until I realized that I couldn't handle it anymore. I came home, cuddled up with my pup, and went to sleep.

For the last few days I have been living in my pajamas...and realizing that I really need some new ones. Here are some of my current favorites that would even make having the flu feel slightly better.

Retro Polka Dot PJ Set available at Forever 21- $24.80

Pure Body Robe available at Gap- $64.95

Gilligan & O'Malley Women's Knit Sleepshirt available at Target- $17.99 $14.39

Telling Bedtime Tails Pajamas by Bedhead available at ModCloth- $103.99

I'm still not feeling all that great. My husband did get home a little early to make me some chicken soup from scratch though (yay!). Here's to hoping it makes me feel better...or at least good enough to get through work tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
