It's tiiiiiiiime.
I am doing literally (and I do mean literally) all of my shopping right here on my couch this year, because despite the fact that I no longer have to brave icy roads and navigate my way through ten-thousand degree stores while wearing marshmallow-shaped coats, I have two children who enter stores and...well...do this.
Photographing holiday cocktails...on my bed. Of course.
(Recipe coming soon!)
Whenever I see bloggers post their beautifully framed shots of food or their jeans arranged just-so against white bedsheets on Instagram or wherever, I like to imagine what the scene *really* looked like when they were shooting it. Especially the food shots, because you know that they're literally standing up on a chair in a restaurant to get that perfect top-down angle - but really: it's interesting to imagine pulling back on just about any photo.

I write a lot about how annoying my dogs are. There’s even an entire chapter in my second book dedicated to this subject.
They are. They're totally annoying. After experiencing the mailman coming to the door approximately 20,000 times over the course of his life, Virgil still does not believe that he is not trying to kill him. And Lucy licks my toes. Not in an aw-that-tickles way; in an obsessive way.
It's the most wonderful caaaarb of the yearrrr.
(Seriously this sweatshirt is my everything.)
It's been about a month and a half since Erin and I opened glam | camp's metaphorical doors, and it's going...surprisingly well, actually. E-commerce, as I was told by virtually everyone who I mentioned the shop to, is a notoriously hard (verging-on-impossible) arena to break into, mostly because there's just so much stuff out there on the Internet to buy - and so many options for where to buy it - that in order for someone to decide to buy *your* product on *your* site a whole lot of pieces have to fall into place.
I discovered this bronzer-and-blush duo on Francesca's makeup table and fell in love. Mostly love that you can get it at the drugstore (or here) for around $25.
Madewell's gift guide is a good one, if you're looking to get an early (well, earlyish) start.
I've been following Yale's Halloween Costume Drama obsessively. It highlights so much of exactly what's wrong with activist culture today. (The New Intolerance Of Student Activism, via The Atlantic.)
